Squeaky Loader Linkage? How to grease?

   The links have Zerks.

   If they don't have zerks, find the holes and put zerks back in.

   Cool... I will try that. But they looked like pins only from the diagram.

   Expand the illustration and see if there is another #14 reference. BUT it's interesting the dowel pins have the same part number with different reference numbers.

   There isn't another 14 reference. And I looked thoroughly on the equipment itself. When I go back, I'll check it out. Just seems odd. I hope I'm wrong

   #4 and 8 are where the zerks are in earlier models, check the end of the trunion shafts also if there's nothing on the links at that joint.

   So checked it out, and no zerks. Here are some pictures...

   Remove the plug, install zerk, grease. Probably a good idea to clean the hole out with a wire, then brake cleaner, then fill with oil/atf, then add the zerk and grease.

   I would check the owners manual and usually they give a greaser diagram.

    Those might be “grease-less” bushings. They were becoming more common. Some type of plastic that doesn’t need grease but if they make noise they need replaced. John Deere parts.com will tell you.
