That was one job that always had to be done back in my combining days. Only we didn't have all the nice tools like now days. I think there were eighty two grease fittings and you had to sweep off the motor and screens the best you could. Hope everything went good for you after the video. Thanks for sharing.

Like the grease gun can you tell that grease has gone into a stiff zerc ,I cant with my pneumatic one so gone back to manual

That set up you designed for baling your hay is unbelievable. Leaf blowers are one of the best inventions ever, Does yours need an adjustment of the low speed needle and have you ever tried a dry graphite spray on your chain ? Thanks and always a great video.

Important for a chain is the grease inside, between the pins and the rolls. A new chain is well greased inside and that can last for years.

Rollling, I agree. Maybe if he just oiled it and then wiped it off real good as too not attract the dust as much but still have the inner parts lubed. Or not do it all and replace when it goes bad ? Either way is fine.
