Greasing
The machine must be greased regularly to keep it working
efficiently. Regular greasing will also increase the machine's
working life.
Grease should be applied with a grease gun, normally two
strokes of the gun should be sufficient.
Stop the greasing procedure when fresh grease appears at
the joint. Use the recommended grease. (See Fluids
Capacities and Lubricants.)
In the following illustrations, the grease points are
numbered. Count off the grease points as you apply grease
to each one. Refit the dust caps after greasing.
Quickhitch Pivot Points - for interval see Service Schedule
Lower the loader arm as far as it will go. Tilt the Quickhitch
fully forward to facilitate access to the central pivot pin
grease points. Switch off the engine and ensure it cannot
be started while you are doing this job.
Total of 6 grease points.

WARNING
You will be working close into the machine for these
jobs. Lower the attachments if possible. Remove the
starter key and disconnect the battery. This will prevent
the engine being started. Make sure the parking brake is
engaged.
Block all four wheels before getting under the machine.
