GREASING THE MOWER CONDITIONER

See "Recommended Lubricants" in this section for
recommended greases.

The following greasing points are marked on the
machine by decals showing a grease gun (A), and
grease interval (B) in hours of operation. Log your
hours of operation and use the "Maintenance
Checklist" provided to keep a record of scheduled
maintenance.

Procedure:

1.

Wipe grease fitting with a clean cloth before
greasing, to avoid injecting dirt and grit.

2.

Inject grease through fitting with grease gun
until grease overflows fitting.

3.

Leave excess grease on fitting to keep out dirt.

4.

Replace any loose or broken fittings
immediately.

5.

If fitting will not take grease, remove and clean
thoroughly. Also clean lubricant passageway.
Replace fitting if necessary.
