ZX35u-3 common problems and greasing the turret (cab).

[Nu2Hitachi]

New to me owner of a Hitachi ZX35u-3 Currently changing all fuilds and greasing. Manual says to grease turret at 90 degree rotation points. Not a clue how this is accomplished? Grease fittings on front don't seem right, any advice? Seems a right choice in machine for my use, anything to pay special atention to??

Means you give it some grease, turn the upper 90 degrees, more grease, repeat until you're back where you started. Should be a place to grease the swing pinion also, not sure if it's a grease fitting or removeable plate on that machine.

There should be 2 on the front of the machine with hoses that go under the cab. 1 is for the back side of the swing frame cylinder and 1 is for the swing bearing.

Thank You to Deeretracks and lantraxco for input!!
