I'll be doing mine every 10 hour increment of my hour meter....whether Ive used the FEL or not...which in my case I'll have used it SOME of course. The extra grease isnt going to hurt the equipment...and it wont hurt my billfold...and it dont take that long.

How do I keep track of the hrs?
For the MMM I use the hr meter. 9 times out of 10 whenever I use the BX23 it's for mowing so thats easy.
With the exception of when it's dismounted for the winter, it gets greased at every 10 hr increment 10, 20, 30 etc...
The FEL gets alot more work than the BH which is considerably less than the MMM but I grease 'em both at the same time anyways and I do it every other MMM greasing, 10, 30, 50 etc. This is over kill unless I'm doing some serious digging inwhich case I'll pump in some fresh grease when I'm done. I always like to see clean grease around the pins.
Like I said, it's more times than not but it's easy to keep up with and I'd rather over kill than not

I grease mine after every washing. The fresh grease squeezes the water out nicely. I try to wash it after every project. My projects dont generally take more than a couple days. I finish a project, wash it, then grease it so it doesnt sit for extended periods with water in its joints.

Every day while the engine warms up, if I'm going to be digging.

Just an educated guess (wag). More is better than less but no sense wasting time, oil (grease), and water/soap/rags washing/cleaning up for no good reason. It is a good idea to grease after a good hose off.
