im needing to grease the rear ujoint on my shredder. The shroud with the hole and side doors doesn’t make it any easier. Also if I want to slip the clutch the side doors are difficult. Has anyone removed the shroud and can explain how to do it. If I could take the rear shaft off I’d do that but I think it’s hard attached. Any experience or suggestions on how you do this or what kind of grease method is welcome. I guess I’m just ignorant of how that shroud was installed. Can’t figure it out. Thanks

Curious to learn how it can be easier, but I have been able to both grease the u-joint and slip the clutch on this cutter just using the side doors.

I do take the cover off the PTO shaft itself though (there are the three plastic fastners you can rotate 90deg with a flathead screwdriver, pull off, then remove/move the cover for the end of the PTO shaft).
