Lubricating Lower Driveline Bearings
IMPORTANT: Operate tractor at low speeds (below 10 MPH) for first 6 hours of operation. IMPORTANT: Over lubrication can result in premature bearing and drive shaft failures. Only use a hand pump grease gun to lubricate gudgeon bearings. Other types of grease guns fill the grease cavity at a greater speed which may push retention seal out of position allowing grease to enter gudgeon center cavity and leaves bearing without proper lubrication. Lubricate thrust cap lubrication fitting (A). Grease every 250 hours with John Deere HD Grease as specified in Fuels, Lubricants and Coolant Section. |
