Jon---there is a plug on the side of the rollers that you remove and fill to that level with sae 30 oil. I would guess get the load off the roller and work it back and forth.
If/when you get them free and they will hold oil, use the proper tool and procedure that gets oil to the inner chambers.
Pete thanks for posting that! My maintenance manual didn't show that nozzle--perhaps because of the price??---$153.07--:jaw:

That's about right, 10 X the value of a $15 tool.
Got one off of ebay awhile ago for $10. Most folks don't know what they are not alone use one.
Comes in a protective metal tube...

That looks like it would be easy enough to make one if you had the specs.

making one would be not to bad except for the o ring section at the end--Pete does all the oil flow out the end or some in the middle section?
