I think the last grease was in 1999 or only 17 years.

Some new ETers could learn from my mistake.

Subject:(ET) Grease Your ET's Axle Spindle

Hi All.

I mowed several times this spring with my C-185 [E20[ and noticed the steering was very tight.

Then I remembered that is the late 1990s I greased the front axle spindle.

Today after a quick grease job, the steering Is like new.

Maybe I should grease these axles more often

 

The ET manual at

http://www.myelec-traks.com/GEZ-5021b.pdf

on pages 127 and 128 shows the axle spindle grease fittings.

Need to turn the front wheels full left and right for access to the grease fittings.

 

Thanks,

Paul Holzschuher
