I have acquired the tool for greasing the rear bearings on my 75. It is a small round plastic tool with a grease fitting on it. However, there are no instructions regarding its use. Does, anyone know how to utilize this thing?

Thanks

I don't know how to use it properly, but somebody once said. "open box, remove contents, get s____ all over it and you , step 4 throw the damn thing in the trash. good luck..............:
 
if you haven't used that tool yet, take it back and get your money back, it's not going to get grease to the outer bearing and therefore is basically worthless. i have one and if i remember right the instructions were to give about 3-4 shots of grease, turn the "tool" 90 degress and repeat, so you're shooting grease at 0, 90, 180, 270 degress. if you get to much grease, the seal can blow out. i replaced my rear bearings myself and packed the bearings with a GM grease the dealer and mechanics swear buy, a little over $5 for the tub, and i practically used the whole tub for both sides.
