Your DR WIDE-CUT LAWN MOWER was greased at the Factory. The operator needs to periodically
lubricate the Wheel Clutch Cable, Brake Cable, Drive Chain, Deck Caster Wheels, and Deck Caster
Wheel Spindles.
Tools & Supplies Needed:
• Grease Gun w/General Purpose Grease
•
1/2" Wrench or Socket (Chain Cover)
•
SAE 30 oil
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE OR INSPECTION, STOP THE ENGINE AND WAIT
FIVE (5) MINUTES TO ALLOW ALL PARTS TO COOL. DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE, KEEPING IT
AWAY FROM THE SPARK PLUG.
Lubricate the Parking Brake cable and the Wheel Drive Clutch cable with SAE 30 oil. Apply the lubricant into
the cable housing while working the cable back and forth and few times. Do this at both ends of the cables
(Figure 12). Perform this lubrication more often in dry and dusty environments.
