LUBRICATION INFORMATION
a. Care of Lubricants. Keep all lubricants in clean, closed containers and store in a dry area away from external
heat. Don't allow dust, dirt, or other foreign matter to mix with lubricants during storage or use. Keep all lubrication
equipment clean and ready for use.
b. Cleaning. Keep all external parts that do not require lubrication free of lubricants. Wipe all dirt and other foreign
matter from lubrication points using a clean cloth. Clean caps, covers, and plugs and surrounding area before removing
them from the tractor. Clean lubrication points after lubrication to prevent accumulation of foreign matter.
Points of Lubrication. Refer to the lubrication order for lubrication points and intervals of lubrication.
