Lubrication - Toro 04383 Operator's Manual

Lubrication

The traction unit has grease fittings that must be
lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium
Base Grease. If the machine is operated under normal
conditions, lubricate all bearings and bushings after every
50 hours of operation. Lubricate fittings immediately
after every washing, regardless of the interval listed.
The following traction unit bearings and bushings must be
lubricated:
Rear wheel hub (1)
Castor bearing (1)
Steering cylinder (2) (Fig. 32)
Lift arms (3) (Fig. 33)
Traction pedal pivot (1) (Fig. 34)
1. Wipe the grease fitting clean so foreign matter cannot
be forced into the bearing or bushing.
2. Pump grease into the bearing or bushing.
3. Wipe up excess grease.
4. Apply grease to the reel motor spline shaft and onto
the lift arm when the cutting unit is removed for
service.
5. Apply a few drops of SAE 30 engine oil or spray
lubricant (WD 40) daily to all pivot points after
cleaning.
Note: Refer to the Cutting Unit Operator's Manual for
cutting unit lubrication requirements.
