Dear Sir
I am not familiar with your model of machine. I would suggest a general purpose grease, EP1 ( this means extreme pressure grade 1 thickness ). This class of grease is sold as for roller ,ball , wheel bearings , and tierod ends. A bearing should only be 40% filled with grease.

Depends on what you are using it for. JD does make a special "corn head" grease, it is really an oil lubricant suspended in a thickener. It doesn't get slung out of the way, and is used in many gearbox applications. I've read 90+ wt oil can be substituted, but do your own research

This is what you need...
202562 Cornhead Grease - Tube [Shoup Manufacturing Company]
"Cornhead grease, 14 oz. tube, for John Deere and New Holland cornheads."
Handy stuff NLGI #0 grease is often used in gear boxes that have leaky seals... KennyV

yep.. we need to know where you want the grease, as the header boxes use that thin grease. for other generic locations, pivot points, wheel bearings.. etc.... regular gun grease should be fine.
