DRIVE SHAFT 
 
The drive shaft must be greased every 250 
hours.  Lack of grease will cause a failure of 
the drive shaft, which could cause damage to 
other components. 
 
The time it takes to grease the drive shaft can 
be kept to a minimum if the following instruc-
tions are used. 
 
1.  Remove seat. 
 
2.  Remove drive shaft / hose guard panel.  
 
3.  Using a grease gun with a hose extension, 
grease both u-joints of the drive shaft.  There 
is also a grease fitting in the middle of the 
drive shaft that needs to be greased. (Fig. 41)
