What is item 170 Bleeder for? This is for a L3302.
No issues just curious.

So you don’t overfill the front axle pivot.

Ok, like a grease relief valve.

Yes exactly

Yep, remove it when greasing until grease comes out. If you have the owner's manual it's explained there.

 

[whatsupdoc]

In my manual it states.

"When applying the grease to the both front-axle
supports, apply grease until the grease overflows
from the breather port."

That is why I asked the question because the manual calls it a breather port ant the parts list
calls it a bleeder.

And I can understand your question and confusion!
