damage to U-joints, gearbox, tractor PTO and/or the
mower driveline. Disconnect driveline from the tractor.
To lubricate driveline slip joint, insert a grease gun
through shield slots (keep fingers out of slots to prevent
injury) and apply grease to grease fitting. Move drive-
line in and out to distribute grease over the entire work-
ing area. Connect driveline to tractor.
Driveline shield bearings (12) must be greased every
eight hours. This operation requires a needle point
adapter for a grease gun. Insert the needle point into
the bearing hole and apply one good pump.
