Default Drive2 lubrication points

Is there a grease fitting on both the primary and secondary? I can only find one grease fitting.

Thanks. I can't seem to find the one in the back, at least not from the top of the cart. Any guidance as to how find the one that's towards the back of the cart?

The one in front is easy to find by putting the cart in neutral and just spinning the primary a bit until it comes around.

Kinda hard to find if you don't know where to look. You can find it too if you lay on the ground at the back of the cart.

I found it, it's hard to reach and see. Standard grease gun tubes won't work in that area, I guess you need an adapter to attach to the zerk fitting?

I use a standard electric grease gun, no adapters, nothing

Yep, no fancy tools, just a fancy reach to get the standard grease gun on there. If your grease gun doesn't have a flexible hose on it, I don't think you can get at the fitting. Grease guns with just a solid metal tube probably can't get there (or will attach poorly, leaking grease everywhere, and that's really bad when it gets flung on the belt). Flex hose for grease gun are available everywhere, auto parts store, tractor supply, maybe even hardware store.

HI all,
I do have a flexible hose attachment. It's actually a really good one which seats well to the zerk fittings. I think it's too bulky at the zerk connection to bend easily enough to fit. I will get a 90 degree adapter.

I think I was doing it wrong. I was trying to get to the zerk fitting from the top, under the seat. That’s really difficult. Going underneath from the back is a snap. Others probably already knew this. :)

I do it from under the seat, but I know where it is. Do a few 100, youll know where it is.
