Hey all, ready to put my 2011 LT1500 away for the year. I need to lubricate the mower. I've never done this before, and the manual states "Lubricate the pivot points, lift linkage and parking brake"

Here's the problem: Aside from the 2 zerk fittings near the front wheels I don't know what any of that stuff is and where to find it!

Is there a diagram or something first-time users can reference?

I have a grease gun with an all-purpose grease for the 2 front zerks.

Pivot points is just what it says anything that pivots. Linkage , steering, wheels. Give them a squirt of oil with a oil can.

I gathered that much but the only thing I can think of are the front wheels.....

Like reynoldston said... a little oil on any place two or more pieces contact each other with any movement... like shafts or hangers, pivot points, park brake release, hood hinges... anything that may slide or turn where it passes through another piece... :smile:KennyV
