Guys,
The secret is to insert a small pin (or 2) between the shaft and the seal
lip. This will allow grease to flow into the bearing without encountering
pressure build-up that would push the bearing out. Clean the surface really
well, insert the pins, attach the greasing tool, pump the grease gun 5 or 6
times. This is enough to fill the bearing cavity without disturbing the lower
seal. This also minimizes the grease spray you sometimes get from a re-greased
bearing. This procedure also works for re-greasing the idler bearing.
