New 10W30 motor oil and filters (available at TriGreen dealers); know your mower’s model & serial number to get the right filter. Oil catch pan or other container to drain old oil into (bucket, large coffee can, etc.); typical John Deere mowers hold two quarts of oil.

Engine oil and oil filters should be replaced at least once every spring or summer, or every 50 hours of use – whichever comes first. The spindles and caster wheels are generally the most often greased. The spindles and castor wheels should be done around once a month because of the moving interior parts.
Grease-Gard Premium Plus is a multi-purpose HD Lithium complex grease. It is used by John Deere for initial factory-fill lubrication of U-joints and axle bearings and it is compatible with most other types of grease.
Amber color. Lithium-complex thickened. Formulated to prevent corrosion and water washout. Paraffinic-base oil with EP and anti-rust additives.
We recommend using a NLGI #2 (Polyurea or multipurpose) grease. What does NLGI mean? NLGI stands for the National Lubricating Grease Institute and is the institution that certifies grease. Grease can range from NLGI #000 to NLGI #6, but the most common is NLGI #2 because it can be used for a wide temperature range.
These are the three best greases from the current market for your vehicle
One thing we are sure of, however – color does not denote a particular type of grease, whether it is red, green, blue or yellow. The color is simply a dye added by manufacturers for marketing purposes, to more easily distinguish the different greases in their product lines.
Lithium grease is a perfectly normal choice if your gun prefers it. Some do, some don’t. Permatex White Lithium Grease is an all-purpose white lubricant for metal-to-metal and metal-to-plastic applications. This lubricant protects against rust, makes surfaces friction-free and withstands moisture and high heat.
any – white lithium grease good on rubber. Silicone grease is safe on rubber and actually helps to keep it soft. Any other grease with a mineral oil base will degrade natural rubber.
Don’t Mix Grease, but Change If Needed The key is to make the switch as close to 100 percent as possible. If you can, start with completely clean parts and new grease. Otherwise, greasing more often will flush out the old incompatible grease faster. Still, some joints will not flush, which could be risky.
White lithium is a low-temperature grease that can be used to lubricate drum brake hardware and backing plates, but lacks the heat-resistance for front disc brake applications. Brake lubricant can also be used to dampen vibrations between disc brake pads and caliper pistons.
