Circle drive jitters.Driveshaft Lube Three grease fittings A grease fitting, grease nipple or zerk fitting is a lubrication fitting used in mechanical systems to add grease with a grease gun. The fitting is permanently installed by a threaded connection leaving a nipple connection the grease gun attaches to. on the hydraulic pump's driveshaft sire overlooked during scheduled services. Without lube, the U-joints on the pump's driveshaft shake loose from vibration and excessive wear. Also, the shaft's bearings rust and burn out. Eventually, the driveshaft and pump stop working.

So keep the pump's driveshaft lubed. During scheduled services every month, give each of the fittings four or five pumps of grease. Centershift Pin The centershift guide pin rusts in place when the grader sits too long without exercise. When that happens, you can't move the pin in and out of the centershift hole to position the grader's blade. That means your grader's sloping operations just came to a screeching halt! It just can't be said often enough--exercise your grader! Operate the centershift pin from its hole at least once a week. That way rust won't "freeze" the pin in place.
