Finally got a grease pump and bucket of Chevron 00 grease.
Sweet D2 sat in a shop for the last 30 years with a broken block and I'm sure it wasn't maintained.
I put 8 pumps slowly into the rollers and 10 into the trunion (?) fitting with none squirting out and no apparent increase in pumping difficulty.
So, my question is, how can I tell when the rollers have received enough grease?
thx

I would think that that number of pumps should be sufficient to lubricate those parts,
Perhaps run it some and see if any grease appears??

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
