Hey guys,
I am new to owning a tractor, but loving it so far. I try to upkeep my equipment and know grease is important. I have a couple questions and concerns. Thanks for your time and help:
The zerk fittings on the ball joints are not taking grease very well in my opinion. They seem fairly rusted up and this may be the problem. Would it be advisable to replace them with new zerk fittings?
Also, there are zerk fittings on the housings near the end of the axles. Approximately how much grease should I put in, and is there any way of measuring how much is already in there? Thanks for input. Take care.
Are there other parts of this equipment I should grease thoroughly?
Thanks for input. Take care.
