When greasing bearings by hand, place a glob of grease in the palm of one hand and

push the large end of the bearing down into the grease (see illustration). Keep turning

the bearing around and forcing it down through the grease until the grease is extruded

 

up through the opposite end. Wipe the extra grease in your hand around the outside of

 

the bearing. It’s not necessary to fill the hub and dust cap with grease.
