I have just acquired a nice Oliver HG-42 as my 1st crawler tractor. The undercarriage appears new, all the pieces are in the correct places, the motor runs well, the sheet metal is pretty straight, and it has been barn stored. I'm quite happy with this tractor. However, I do not have what appears to be a special tool required for greasing/oiling the tracks & undercarriage. Are these available, and does anyone have one they would like to sell ?
Thank You,
Paul Van Scott

Zimmerman Oliver-Cletrac in Ephrata Pa.(717 738 2573)has the attachment that will fit the button head fittings.They also have the grease pump but it is pricey,(around 300.00). I found one at an auction for 25.00.

Paul, Those round top grease fittings are called button head fittings . Anything that has button head fittings installed calls for gear oil as the lube. You need an alemite volume pump to grease that machine, do not use paste grease as it will not flow thru the cavity and into the holes in the bushings in the rollers etc.

You can use an old grease gun (non-cartridge type) with a button head coupler on the end, fill it with 90 wt GL-1 gear oil and pump away. I you need anything with more volume give us a try.
