[QUOTE="Bigdawg90, post: 4150857, member: 49831"] I’m pretty meticulous when it comes to maintenance. I baby everything I own because I’ve learned it’s cheaper to do that than replace it. My tractors at about 35 hours in a little less than 3 months. I didn’t use it much when it was horrendously hot outside. It says to grease the loader every ten hours and to check all other grease zerks every 50. Everytime I’ve greased the loader I do all zerks. I just do a couple pumps. One of my buddies said I can ruin joints by “over- greasing” them……I thought what??? Can you over-grease a zerk? I thought that’s what that little pressure valve on sealed joints is. Like the front axle. Because of the inclines at my property I’m always in 4wd. I’m waiting for the dealership to get a part in for their Rimguard and then I should be able to be out of 4wd sometimes. What say the people with a lot more knowledge? Can you over grease with a typical grease gun? [/QUOTE]
