Yes you can use lithium grease for everything on your snowblower. Lithium grease has a high heat tolerance and is also good at displacing moisture. It adheres well to metals and helps stop corrosion.

Does anyone have any experience with tire chains on their snowthrower? I find my wheels start to slip when I run them over packed snow, would tire chains help ?

I bought a 928E from Lowe's in Hamilton Canada in November. I was told by the salesperson that John Deere does not allow retailers to assemble the units. They're all assembled at the John Deere dealership in Smithville. I was told at the John Deere dealership that the engine is rated between 9 - 10 H.P. They are no longer allowed to rate their units in H.P. because of law suits in the U.S. It appears people have launched law suits over manufacturer's "rated horsepower". I was told by a salesman at John Deere that the units are made in Illinois by B&S to John Deere specifications. John Deere stopped making snowthrowers a few years ago after several winters of low snowfall. They didn't sell enough units to justify an assembly line. If you have problems, take your snowthrower directly to a John Deere facility. I had trouble removing a broken shear pin. The mechanic showed me a trick, and gave me some useful info about the machine. I was treated very well there.
