720 Clutch slide grease

[DeereJohn1]

I'm waiting on service manuals for my 720. Could anyone tell me the procedure to thoroughly clean and lubricate the clutch slide mechanism, dogs, toggles, etc? Mine is an early model and does not have the grease zerk for the slide. Also, what kind of job is it to remove and inspect the roller bearing inside? Thanks

I'm new to these 2 cylinders myself. I've got a 730 and I have the manual. I haven't seen anywhere in the manual where it says to lubricate the clutch. Am I missing something?

I researched 720 operators manual & reference I located concerning] lubing engine clutch components is underlined by green line.

Yes, the bearing the clutch pully rides on and the little toggles that operate the clutch. And I also grease the main bushing. you want to use high temperature grease. john

Back in the day, I retrofitted a zerk on my 720. Easy to do when it's apart and kinda handy if the tractor gets heavy use.
