A few questions regarding routine maintenance:
1.) Where the **** are the 3 zerks on the treadel assembly??? I pulled off the column and foot-well panels but saw no zerks. I believe the manual says 2 on the treadle assembly and one on the butterfly somethingorother.
2.) Superlube ball joints. I presume this is an aerosol product. I do not have a home depot and noone seems familiar with this product. Is there a similar product that Wally World might stock which I could use (i.e. canola oil)?
3.) I will call Duetz, but in the meantime, what every 8 hour stuff is needed for the diesel??? I plan on removing and blowing out the air pre-filter. Can I remove the air filter and blow it out.
4.) I am using regular grease on the tractor and Moly/Lithium High temp/High Pressure grease (both from Wally World) on the brush cutter. Is there a zerk on my wheel trencher and should it get the regular or the high temp stuff?
5.) I read all the previous greasing posts and still don't know too much. How many pumps should I put in each zerk?
So far 8 hours and no problems except for the broken cutter blade. Man this machine is a blast!!!
I really need to get the wrap that protects the hoses, (the wheel trencher cam with a hose nicked to the metal core) but it is so fun to actually se results from an hour or two of "work."
Thanks again all
