When you guys are lubricating the joints for the control lever linkage I assume there are no grease fittings for those? If there isn't a fitting do you simply put some of your regular grease in there or do you go about it another way?

Thanks!

All I've ever used in there is an aerosol spray grease, it's pretty hard to wipe solid grease on so it gets where it needs to go.

I've been using a silicon spray lately, tractor supply has some spray with graphite that I'll try next...I forget what it's called.

OK thanks. So there's no actual grease fitting... I just spray it on. Appreciate the help.

There's a cover plate on the bottom of the control lever (L3800 w/ LA524 loader). Do any of you remove the plate or just spray in there?

Thanks.

Did anyone have some insight on this? Do I remove the cover to lubricate under the control lever?

Thanks.
