Auger Shaft
At least once a season, remove the shear pins from the auger
shaft. Spray lubricant inside the shaft and around the spacers
along the shaft. Using a grease gun, apply two strokes of grease
(Part Number 737-0168A) to the fitting found at each end of
shaft. See Fig. 6-3.
Gear Case
The auger gear case has been filled with grease at the factory. If
disassembled for any reason, lubricate via the grease fitting with
two ounces of grease (Part Number 737-0168A).
NOTE: Always remove the vent plug prior to lubricating the gear
case. See Fig. 6-3. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
seals.
