FWIW, maybe that's why the service manual for my "stinkY' (IC engine) calls
for removing the wheel, cleaning and greasing the hub once a year. :-D .
Ahh, in retrospect, that definitely seems like a good idea. :) When I
restored mine, I stripped much of the tractor apart - but I didn't take
the hubs off the axle, or mess with the underside at all. The rest of the
tractor is nice and pretty with new stainless steel bolts, etc. - but the
underside looks like it hasn't been touched in 40 years. Apparently it
needs a little love too...
