    Good video. I might add two things. When greasing the steering kingpins I always raise the front of the machine and let the wheels and axle hang free so that the grease gets into the contact areas. There also is likely a fitting in the middle of the front axle to lubricate the pivot. If you jack up the machine by the frame it will unload this area allowing the grease to get into the contact areas. By doing this maintenance the tractor will steer like new for a long time. Thanks for posting.

    Dennis, you are very in tune with maintaining your mower. 90 percent of guys are very poor with the maint. required to keep their equipt. running. One tip I will share is NOT to wash your mower with water especially on top of your deck. Water is very fluid and will seep into your deck spindle bearings. Bearings are sealed to keep out dust dirt etc. but not water contrary to belief, a small amount will rust and wash the grease out. I use an air compressor to blow all the build up after every cutting. Engine,deck, and transmission. I only wash maybe once a year but follow with air to dry out. Just my 2 cents.

    Hey my first Husky ride-on also! I used to sneer at these folks using a big ride-on to cut their small lawns. For the past 40 years I've been using push mowers (a HusqHonda and a 30 year-old Briggs$Stratton- STILL STARTS ON FIRST PULL!) It's not so much that at 80 yrs old, I can't do the job anymore, but It just TAKES too long with a push mower!

    Great video. I agree w another commenter -- I avoid water around numerous regions (deck/under the hood) but for years I've used my Stihl gas leafblower to (gently directed) clean out the deck and, from just a bit further way, any dirt/debris around the general tractor/under the hood after use, especially if mulching/leaves/fall time. Those wells really do attract a lot of debris and I've seen a neighbor's deck rust out between water and wet debris. Thanks! Subscribed.

    Hey Dennis. Well, I done it. I got my YTH22V46 Husqvarna lawn tractor today from Rural King. Borrowed my bosses trailer and got it home. Needed a new one real bad like cause I Flipped my other one End over End last year. It was close but it didn't get me. I was on a steep hill and got stuck 3./4 of the way up and when I pressed the left pedal which controls the drive train, I started rolling backwards,,,then I let it out to go forward and that's when it went end over end on me. Anyway, I won't be mowing that hill anymore. Thanks again for the very important information on this lawn tractor. It will be a big help in my future maintenance plans.

    Wow Joe!! I'm sure glad you weren't hurt! I have one steep hill that I mow and I'm very careful with it....I've decided this year that I'm installing terraces with flower beds so I don't have to cut it. Your story confirms that is a good idea. Hopefully all goes well with your new mower and you like it as well as I do mine!

    Thanx! I have a 24V54 with three blades, bought 6 months ago, and the clock says I've already run it about 20 hours or so this summer.. Huh? ?? This clock is incrementing faster than real time! -showing about an hour for every ~35 min I've been running the machine! Anyhow, as usual I never RTFM, so your video has inspired to do so, and grease the ~seven? points before the snow arrives! (it's now Nov 1/21) It already has a shattered mandrel bottom, which I have now somehow managed to remove and order a replacement mandrel thru Amazon. Seems to a common problem from what I've seen on Amazon. I don't suppose the part is still covered in my guarantee. The dealer (30 miles away) will no doubt say "Hmmm.. You must have hit a rock, sir! The guarantee does not cover this". Hey, with climate change, I may be able to cut my lawn and small field (yes, with a few pesky rocks!) before winter shuts us down. Thanx again!

    Good to see you wipe the zerk fittings off before greasing. Most people (the auto shop) don't do this and you'll see galling on a shaft right at the grease point (if you ever disassemble it.) Good video by the way and thank you. I have a high quality shopvac that I use with the hose hooked up backwards (in reverse) to blow off debris. If you use a crevice tool on the end of the hose, you can get as much as 25 pounds of pressure for cleaning. That way you don't have to use a hose to flush the machine off.

    I have the same model - love all you videos - very helpful - I am not a handyman but I took the deck off and back no hitch. I use a electric leaf blower after each use to blow out that area you talked about (PULLEY GUARDS) seems to work great. I had to take bolt off my deck when I removed it - couldn't get that clip off. Keep up the great videos Dave from Wisconsin

Sounds like it would work much better than using a garden hose. Thanks very much for watching!

    I also use the leaf blower (80mph) to clean out the inside of my vehicles. Takes 10 minutes, blows everything out from under the seats, between the consol, places it is hard to get the vacuum into. Blows all the dust off the dash and seats. Open all the doors and have at it.

Mine is going on its 3rd season and I’ve never greased the front end 😮. I’m definitely going to do this b4 I mow again this week

    I use high pressure compressed air to COMPLETELY clean off the deck and spindles and all other areas of my tractor each time I am finished using it. Yes, the running out of gas at end of season is great to stop carb gunk and I always use STABIL in my gas. Mine is a TS348XD.

    This is a great video, I lubricated my spindles and wheels yesterday following your steps. The grease gun was a tool I have never used before and I had a hard time releasing the grease gun hose from the zerk fitting, but I finally figured out it due to pressure and was able to resolve the issue. I was looking through the owners manual for other maintenance items and there were a couple things that it doesn't go into detail about like checking the muffler/spark arrester, transaxle cooling fan, and engine cooling. Can you do videos on these other maintenance items?

    Hi Cliff, thanks so much for watching and commenting. I have a video about loading grease into a grease gun that may come in handy down the road.... kzread.info/dash/bejne/eW2KqsehmLbbc7g.html That's a task that can end up messy. :) As far as the other items go....the muffler is basically an inspection item. You're looking for excessive rust, especially perforations, etc that may indicate replacement is necessary. Regarding the transaxle cooling....basically you want to make sure there is no debris, clippings, etc accumulated on top of the transaxle that would hinder proper cooling. Same basic idea with engine cooling as well....just make sure grime, sludge, clippings etc are not accumulated on or around the engine preventing it from getting maximum air flow. I'll do my best to make a video showing these procedures next time I go thru my tractor. Thanks Cliff!
