I have a brown colored very small tube of grease that came with my stove but nothing in the poorly written manuals about what to do with it. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

The only thing I have used it for (so far) is the left end (small end) of the agitator rod. I think I read it in a thread on here or maybe in the technical manual. I would also be interested in knowing if there are other locations that need to be greased on this stove.

The brownish looking grease is called anti-seize. It's brownish because there is copper in it and it's made for hi temp applications. It is used to grease the left side of the agitator rod where it rides in the bushing. I usually apply a dab during my weekly cleaning. To my knowledge, it is not used anywhere else in the stove.
About the only other thing I have ever lubricated was the chain for the agitator. But, that's not likely to need it for a long time as if I remember it came from the factory pre-lubed.
