THANKS for the input. It sounds like I'm doing what most of ya'll are doing, maybe just a little more. It works for me so I'm not gonna change anything.

If you pop off an end (assuming both ends were greased at the same time/interval) you can tell by rotating the yoke.

In general I try to remember to grease at about 10hr marks. Only a couple of zerks, so not a real big deal: but I'll do the other zerks on the cutter too (the tail wheel zerks are far away the ones that seem to always need grease the most/first).
