Lubricating the Verticutter
Each verticutter has 5 grease fittings
must be lubricated weekly with No. 2 lithium grease.
The lubrication points are the front roller (2), the rear
roller (2), and the reel motor splines (1).
Important:
Lubricating the cutting units
immediately after washing helps purge water out
of the bearings and increases bearing life.
1.
Wipe each grease fitting with a clean rag.
2.
Apply grease until you see clean grease coming
out of the roller seals and the bearing relief valve
(Figure
12).
