MAINTENANCE
Turn tractor engine off before performing any maintenance.
Always use personal protection devices such as eye and ear
protectors when performing maintenance functions.
When completing a maintenance or service function, make sure
all safety shields are installed before placing mower in service.
GREASING
A properly maintained lubrication schedule will provide a smooth running machine
for many years. All pivot locations have grease fittings. The following information
shows and describes where all lubrication points are located. Use a quality EP2
bearing grease (WITH NO MOLYBDENUM COMPOUNDS) or equivalent.
P.T.O. SHAFTS
Your TDR-30 mower is equipped with reduced maintenance drive shafts. This
means that greasing of the shafts must be done only every 100 hours of use, or 8 to 10
days of use. This applies to the main input, intermediate and deck shafts supplied with
this mower. These shafts are also equipped with the EASY LOCK GUARD
SYSTEM.
BLADE SPINDLE GREASING
This TDR-30 mower is equipped with fully sealed roller bearings that require no
regular maintenance. A predetermined amount of grease has been placed in both the
top and bottom bearings in order to provide adequate lubrication throughout the life of
the bearing.
