If you have grease axles on your trailer, and you like doing proper maintenance on your trailers, you may want to know how to grease them.
Start by jacking up the trailer so the tires are off the ground.
Remove the grommet off the center of the grease hub.
Attach the nozzle of a manual grease gun to the grease zert.
Using a pnuematic grease gun increases the chance of blowing a seal!
Spin the wheel slowly with one hand and start pumping the grease gun.
You will see the old grease pushed out, and once you see the new grease coming through stop.
Wipe the excess grease off and place the grommet back on.
Repeat on both sides and all axles.
We recommend re-greasing your trailer axles once a year or every 12-36 thousand miles.
Keep in mind grease will never be used up, it just gets old.
