grease lube job zerks and ***Pins***?

[ohbehave]

I just finished doing the 50 hour service on a Kubota L3200.

The grease-gunning of the zerks went well, but after some web browsing, I see people referring to greasing "pins", too.

What's a pin? (I'm a newb, btw)

Are there other things that could use some lubing (whether grease or other)?

Greasing the FEL has metal Pins the hold the joints together and flex. Just give the Zerks three pumps every 10 hours and you will be fine.

These "pins"/pivots are about 1" in diameter. They are surrounded by the FEL trunnions. They are fed grease through dedicated zerks.

You got the pins if you hit the zeros on the FEL. Pins are the pivot points of a FEL.

Oh, ok... good.

I just thought "pins" were something other than "zerks".

I made sure to grease every thing that had a zerk.... even the tucked away, hard to find ones.

Some folks seemed to describe the "zerks and pins" when referring to their grease job. I just didn't know what "pins" meant.
