Hi all,
I recently bought a new 5 foot King Cutter Rotary Tiller. I have it assembled and mostly ready for use; the manual is quite clear "except" for just how much grease one should pump into the Tiller Hub? I've never had a rotary tiller before and am unsure.
It doesn't seem to have any sort of "weep" hole - I don't want to pump in too much and possible blow out a seal - NOR do I NOT want to pump in too little and cause damage by not enough grease!
Perhaps a dumb question, but I am unsure how to handle this. Any advice from a tiller owner out there? The PTO zerks are simple enough, pump in until it oozes out and stop. The hub, however, seems to be a different animal. Advice is appreciated. Thanks, Greg
