Overview

A practical owner walkthrough showing exactly how to grease a 1026R, loader, backhoe, and tractor, from loading a cartridge into a pneumatic grease gun through wiping fittings clean to reaching awkward backhoe zerks by extending the attachment. Covers grease selection (NLGI #2, mentions JD brand and Tractor Supply alternatives) and fitting counts. Best for first-time owners who want a step-by-step visual reference rather than a spec-heavy review.

An owner-operator channel (Garage Toyz) whose primary content appears to be cars, making this tractor maintenance video a side topic rather than a core focus.
