Zerk....Bird

[Thomas]

Good Morning.
I was wondering when you own your B7100 did your front loader have the press in grease fittings?
If so did you have a problem removing the grease nozzle and the grease fitting also would remove?
After couple of years I have had to drill and tap 2 grease fittings in my front loader.

I hope this new low pressure you folks are about to get won't be as bad as last weekends,but at least things will be clean and green and the water table shall be above average.

Take Care.

Sorry I can't help you, Thomas. I never had a problem with any of the grease zerks on my Kubotas, so I never checked to see whether they were pressed in or threaded (I think they were threaded). The last time I had to replace a pressed in zerk was on the front axle of the Cub Cadet riding mower I had. I just ground the threads off a threaded zerk and pressed it in and it stayed and worked just fine.
