Good videos man. Where can I get an adapter or pressure gauge/adapter to get grease into my sk750? I bought it used and there is no adapter or gauge anywhere on the machine. There’s only the check valve on there, no zerk, and no adapter. I need to get new tracks on there.

Should be able to through the dealer, down here for me the dealer is Stowers machinery in kingsport tn, if you cant find one anywhere else I'm sure you can call them and they can either find a dealer close to you or ship directly to you

What attachment is at the end of your grease gun to get the grease into the machine? I rented one and the track came off. I got the track back on but my grease gun doesn't seem compatible to putting grease into it.

Should just be a regular grease fitting, does your not fit at all or does it just not pump up?

@@SouthernMechanic I guess it seems like they're both female ends. There isn't a way for one to go over or inside the other. I noticed yours went over it and seemed to clamp down.

Hey man thanks for the post -have the same machine but can’t find a hydraulic fluid. DW says any THF but any particular one you recommend?

Is there a pressure gauge for the grease insert? Should be up inside the lever console behind the panel in front of where you stand. Should be on the right side clipped to the frame

Supposed to be but is usually lost within the first few months of these larger companies owning them and the employees losing stuff but you get a good feel for track tension after doing them for 20 years lol but I have used the guage before and I'm usually right on the mark when comparing it with the guage

@@SouthernMechanic thanks for the feedback! And great reassurance from your video. I have a rented ditch witch sitting on job site with track off. Rental said they will tow it on Monday I rented it for the weekend to get the job done. Don't think it has a grease fitting if it's the same one I rented a few rentals ago. And had to put track back on after turning incorrectly. It took me three hours with help. Hoping only an hour this time without help. Your video is added encouragement.
