The next time I tear this thing apart I’m going to make everything go to a manifold like my mini excavator has then your greasing everything from one spot.   Wedge the new clutch was definitely the fix    What a difference

I found  a 90 degree coupler that slides on from the side and use it a lot on both max and Argo. The zerks  on most max are press in. If you pull them you have to drill and tap the flange 1/4x28 to install new zerks . I just searched 90 degree grease gun fitting. It’s called a slide on fitting. Can’t get a pic to post.

Max 4 what’s the trick with the grease fitting on the drive shaft bearings next to the sprocket that leave you no room to get the coupler on. Then I figure I’ll take it out one put a new 90 degree coupler on and this thing doesn’t have the 5/16 head on it to remove it. It’s like it was built in with the bearing.  What a pita.
