It walks through cleaning and greasing all loader and driveline grease fittings (including the hard-to-reach U-joint fittings), then tests two aftermarket Amazon add-ons: loader grease-fitting dust caps (which don't fit well on cast parts) and floor mat bolt-hole plugs. Useful for current 1025R owners handling their own maintenance, not shoppers researching the tractor.
Posted by the DIY Homefront channel, an owner sharing hands-on maintenance and product impressions from his own tractor.
The owner says the manual calls for greasing all grease fittings every 10 hours of operation, though he admits he does not always follow that schedule.
They popped on easily over machined parts but would not stay in place on the two cast loader pieces on each side, even though 12 fittings exist.
You can turn the driveshaft by hand on level ground to position the fitting, and use a Lockin Lube extension to reach the one behind the engine through a small hole.
The owner says they mainly improve looks but create a tight enough fit to likely keep water out, and he wishes he had installed them sooner.
