Not sure how you can tighten up where the grease gun hooks to the grease fitting. It's coming out from between the grease gun fitting and grease nipple. Not from the nipple itself on the tool, or the coupler where it connects to my grease gun. The bearing greasers were given to me, so I'm sure the leftover grease inside them hardened up a bit. I grease plenty of other equipment and don't have an issue.
@@VanLoweLawnCare I tried several ends on my grease gun until I got it to work correctly. also, you might try different zerks. some of these Chinese ones are garbage from the factory. If there's clearance issues like I had with my rear greaser, a 45 degree zerk helped. You might need to file the base of the new zerk in the opening so the shaft fits past it when installing the tool. Hope this helps. :)
My brand new Polaris 570, is in the shop and broken dn. most of the time. I can’t get that many miles, granted I have only owned it for four months now.
Well what's it doing, because mines honestly been fine except for being in the shop for a couple months recently due to a weird power steering issue that came about memorial Day weekend of this year. Got it back a couple weeks ago and took it riding where I usually go for labor day and it did just fine, no signs of the steering issue. The dealer wasn't able to replicate or pull a code when it was there. The only other issue I've had was the recall for the wiring harness.
This Weds im changing wheel bearings on 2 570s, one has 12,500 miles (engine rebuild at 10,500) and the second has 10,300 miles. plus It's burning oil. They actually just purchased 2 brand new cf motos 600cc 2-up (two. Cost the same as one sportsman). Polaris machines have many known problems. M.webber what's the current problem on yours?
@@VanLoweLawnCare I couldn't agree more. What's more impressive is the owners are 71 and 68. We're in western NY, not too far from Pennsylvania. They have a toy hauler and they travel to Potato city, Potter county pennsylvania, where you can ride on the roads and there are more trails/mountains then you would believe. They go on rides that are 60 miles each way, deep into the mountains. There's a group of around 30 machines. The places they've discovered are amazing. They found an old steam train in the middle of nowhere with a dining car all set up to serve dinner with porcelain plates and silk napkins. I wish I could post pics on here. Anyways there are the most active customers I've met. if anyone's in the NY area I'll be helping him sell one sportsman 570 (rebuilt one) and one 2022 cf moto 600. He had 3 heart attacks 2 months back and accepted he needs a side by side .
@@VanLoweLawnCare I just reread your comment about the power steering issue. I've had to repair 6 or 7 570s that randomly lose power steering and don't drop codes. I finally figured out that a connector melts. I might still have a pic on my old phone. It's a two wire black plastic plug with green and blue or green and purple wires. It's something to keep in mind if you're having power steering troubles.
I'd be worried that you would be compromising the seal by doing that. But I guess that doesn't matter since they are split bearings and we are greasing them anyways🤷🤦
@@VanLoweLawnCare The seals on the bearings are worthless from the day one. Keep it pumped full, the grease is the only thing actually keeping the water out.
Polaris in their infinite wisdom made the inner race out of two pieces, so there is split in the middle. that is where the grease tool is able to get the grease to go in; Consequently that's where all the water and dirt works it way in also. Its a junk design that's been a headache for years. I pump the bearing until it looks like a bukkake shoot then pack grease all in around the shaft and in the hole before install the hub and watch it all squirt out around the edges while twisting the nut back on. My rig is in the creak and mud every weekend and this is the only way to keep my bearings for more than 250 miles... which is all they last if you don't.
😂 The problem you are missing here is these greasers were given to me and I had no idea how long they sat. So the grease hardened up in the greasers, took a few pumps to get it going. But it did indeed grease the bearings
i love the sound of the birds...
Yes me to. Being down in a valley surrounded by woods on 30 acres, there's definitely plenty of nature to enjoy.
@@VanLoweLawnCare you're in paradise. enjoy it
Cool machine there! Looks like fun💯👍🏾
You need to tighten up the nozzle that goes around the grease fitting on the tool that way grease won’t leak out

I have grease my friends wheel bearing on their machines and it can take up to 25 to 30 pumps
I've heard you want to grease them, but not over grease them. That's why I did 10-15 pumps. Not saying your wrong and not saying I'm right.
I grease them until I see a little bit come out around the seal
I'd be worried that you would be compromising the seal by doing that. But I guess that doesn't matter since they are split bearings and we are greasing them anyways🤷🤦
@@VanLoweLawnCare l haven’t had any problems doing that !! And I now have 10000 kms on my quad and have never had any problems with the wheel bearings

What’s the name of that fitting you used to get grease in there?
It's called a wheel Bearing Greaser. You can get them anywhere. I don't know where these came from as they were given to me in a box full of parts.
I've got a '17 570, would that bearing grease tool work on it? If so, where can I buy one?
I believe they are the same size bearings in a '17 and '22. So yes it should work. You can find the greaser on eBay and Amazon
what are the tork settings?
To be 100% honest, I'm not sure. I just snug them down some, but not so tight that there is too much drag, then make sure I can get the cotter pin in!
Yes JESUS Is My Lord And Savior AMEN
It would help if the grease actually made it into the zerk, the tool and into the bearing. You didn't grease a damn thing other than your fingers. lol
😂 The problem you are missing here is these greasers were given to me and I had no idea how long they sat. So the grease hardened up in the greasers, took a few pumps to get it going. But it did indeed grease the bearings
One very important question is do you know JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR?
