BX Grease Fittings

[1funride]

The owners manual for the BX does not call out any grease fittings.
I found one on the foot pedal. Are there any more on the tractor?

Seems there should be one on the front axle pivot.
Where can I but a shop manual for this tractor? The owners manual is terrible.

The pedal's fitting was added late last year to address a problem, one day the Owner's Manual should catch up to the changes. No other fittings on the unit itself. If you have a belly deck or FEL, they do have their own fittings.

If I remember correctly, a while someone on this board did order the shop manuals from the dealer.

I purchased my BX shop manual from Carver Eqp.

I can't get grease to go into the fitting. I got the paint off the grease fitting and the little ball is free but still can't get grease to go in with a hand type gun. Any ideas?
Glad you brought this up. I had looked for fittings but not seen this one.
thanks,
john

You may need a better grease gun, the little ones have a hard time getting grease thru the tight-fitting sleeves on the pedal. It might also help to move the pedal back and forth while putting pressure on with the grease gun (with the tractor OFF of course!). I bought a bigger grease gun and move the pedal...works for me, but it doesn't take much grease to do the job...
