    Remote Grease Block Argo

    I thought I would post a few pics of my 2002 Argo Bigfoot overhaul. While I had it stripped down I thought I would add a remote grease block to do the front 6 grease points, these are very difficult to reach and are often neglected. Even though this is on an Argo Bigfoot it could be done on any Argo or any other machine for that matter.

    It's relatively straight forward:

    1. Remove pressed in stock nipples
    2. Drill and Tap for 1/8" NPT.
    3. Screw in 1/8" NPT pneumatic push on 1/4" tubing connectors (straight or 90's)
    4. Route 1/4" tubing to clear obstacles.
    5. Drill and tap 1/8" NPT grease block (3/4" x 3/4" aluminum)
    6. Screw in 1/8" tubing connectors one side/1/8" NPT nipples the other side
    7. Mount grease block.
