A - Heavy-Duty Gudgeon Tapered Roller Bearing Fittings

IMPORTANT: Over-lubrication of tapered roller bearings may result in damage to inner grease retention seal or bearing and drive shaft.

Use only hand pump grease gun. Other types of grease guns fill the grease cavity at greater speed. This can push retention seal out of position, allowing grease to enter gudgeon center cavity and leaving bearing improperly lubricated.

Lubricate heavy-duty gudgeon tapered roller bearing fittings (A) on both left-hand and right-hand side and on top of gudgeon. Give each fitting approximately 40 pumps of grease.

Use John Deere™ SD Polyurea grease or other grease as specified in Fuel, Lubricants and Coolant section of this Operator’s Manual.
