2018 DF 175 Grease Zerk

[outoftheboat]

I would like to thank this site for everyone who provides information. I recently serviced my 2018 DF 175 from top to bottom. I was having all kinds of trouble trying to find where this grease zerk was the “Mount Oil Seal Cover/Upper Mount Seal.” For some reason, I could not make sense of the diagram in the user manual for whatever reason. I joined this site and found someone with a picture of a 200 showing where it was on that motor. I went back to my motor and found the crazy thing. Thought I would post pictures where it is located in case someone is aggravated trying to find it.

How much grease did you pump Inyo that zero?

Jaybord, I believe I only put one pump into that zerk. Before this motor, I had a previous one and NEVER put any grease in it for 8 years, because I had no clue it was there. The manual says... Inject approximately 10 grams of grease at initial 20 hours. Inject approximately 5 grams of grease at every 100 hours (12 months). Hope this helps a little.
