zert under engine

[hoytme]

hey guys,,been reading the forums on greasing the fittings on the max.no need to tilt the engine or retap a grease fittingtry this,,pop the shell,standing behind the machine,take your left hand and with your thumb,locate the zert under the engine.cause thats the only way i can touch it.now,,take a grease gun with a flex hose and a 90 degree fitting on the end,and with your right hand,fish it under the recoil part on the right side of the engine.go over the frame and find your thumb.now,with your thumb,guide the fitting onto the zert and lock it down.it does work!,,

Can I borrow your 90* end piece? Lol
Anything that makes it easier to lube that one is welcome. I'm leaning towards one of them zerk extensions like the Avenger has up front. I'm just not sure if it would work though. I've never worked on a Max yet.
