Important: DO NOT grease a painted I-shaft.
A different I-shaft will soon be available for service. This I-shaft is painted.
The painted service I-shaft metal surface has a revised isolation material that does not tolerate lubricants.
The painted I-shafts should not be greased at the slip joint before installation. Greasing the painted I-shafts will damage the I-shaft.
