Easy Greasing of Roller Reefing Systems

Hello,

I had to lubricate the roller furling system and found that the tube with the nozzle on it was useless as grease leaked out the damaged tube. I bought a large syringe, cut the bottom of the grease tube and packed the grease into the syringe. It worked great as I could now force grease into the bearings as the nozzle of the syringe sealed around the grease hole; nice and clean job as well.

All the best,

Alastair

clean / rinse and then harken "one drop"
less is definitely more when servicing furling gear
