I'm a machinist also. I see a lot of equipment come in the shop to be reworked that looks like it was greased when put in new, then never again. Just came in, a 1 3/4" shaft that is near worn in half.

Masscity, I have since used Fluid film under the deck. The ceramic (wax like thin coat coating) worked like magic. It didn't hold up very long though. The fluid film is working fine for protection, but I liked the ceramic better. But I'm not taking the deck off every 3 or 4 mowing's.

well, rats.

It looks I have to eat some crow. 1st pic is before mowing( 4th or 5th time mowing) 2nd is after. Not much difference. But I did mow when it was wet. Maybe this is why I have so much build up now.

I found I can't attach a DXF file. Here is the G Code

So, I can't Post a DXF.

I'm having trouble opening the file. It won't attach. I'll get with the guy that drew the hook up and see what's going on. I converted it to G-code and text, but I can't see the DXF?

I have a DXF file to burn out hooks, I have a T7, I believe the T5 uses the same hook. I'll post the file if anyone is interested.
