I've got a 1949 G that works well, except I don't know how to lubricate the wheel axles, where the wheels are attached. Can someone explain how to properly grease the axles. The 2 small bolts (at the end of the axle) come out and I add grease through the holes, but the grinding continues. Also why do the bolts have tapered ends.

thanks for the help

Those are probably set screws to hold the bearings in place. I believe the bearings are sealed. If they're grinding they probably will need to be replaced.

Those are set screws. The bearings are shot. I replaced them on my neighbors tractor last summer. Bearings are available through AGCO dealers. The fun part is getting the brake drum off the axle, as I'm sure yours is rusted on like the one I did. If you have access to a press, that should work. I used a big vise and a BFH.

Doesn't the common sump lube the axles?

No. Think about it for a second. THe brakes are located on the axles right where they come out of the transmission. In order for the outer bearings to be oiled by the transmission oil, you would also have to oil the brakes!

Hey! Wet brakes... good idea right (grin).

So they are sealed and manually repacked then?

I've never had them apart and it's been a long time since I've read the shop manual so I may be wrong but it seems to me like they are just sealed bearings. I think you need a press to get everything apart, too. I don't think there is any required routine maintainence.

I havn't had mine apart either.. and I think you are right now that I think about it. as the main manual does indicate you having to press them apart to get the breaks apart.
