WiJC,
Perfect timing!! I've just reached the first 10hr greasing point.Hope you don't mind if I add another question while we're talking grease??The owners manual says to grease 12 fittings and also joints of control lever linkage???Where are the joints of the control lever linkage /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif(LA302 FEL)

I'm just a newbie too... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gifHope this isn't to dumb of a question /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

I should think they are reffering to lubing the joints with a spray.

i guess they are talking about anything that moves or slides, what i do is anything that i can reach with grease gets a dab even if i have to dab it on with a long neck screwdriver, what i can'r reach gets a shot of wd40, only do this once a year with the hard to reach places. don't know if it really does any good , but i have not had a problem with any contol linkage and it just makes me feel better. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think I would use a high pressure silicone spray on the linkage. It's much less messy than spray grease. I use G.E. H.P spray on my sled clutches. I doesn't attract dirt at all.

Those joints are under the cover the joystick goes into. Mine wore out and cost about 150 to replace.
