Abstract:
An apparatus for dispensing grease into a plurality of bearing assemblies without waste and includes a base member equipped with at least one grease channel, a vertical support member adjustably supported on the base member, a stacking rod mounted on the base for stacking the bearing assemblies to be greased and a retaining means carried by the stacking rod to hold the stacked bearings in tight stacking alignment with each other. The bearings are placed in a vertical stacked relationship on the stacking rod and held in tight relationship to each other by the retaining means. Grease is applied through the grease channel, and the only path for the grease to travel is through the bearings around the inner and outer races of the bearings whereby the grease fills each bearing assembly completely before flowing up to the next bearing assembly.
