Drive Shaft

After every 8 operating hours, lubricate 3 grease points

__________________________________________

Due to dusty conditions, check the tractor air filter
often. Further instructions appear in the tractor
operator’s manual. Be sure to follow the recommenda-
tions for “extreme conditions” as the air filter can be
affected by dust and other debris raised by the
sweeper.
