Default Grease fittings

What does everyone do with the stupid grease fittings that come on the Carbide. Is there a special grease gun end to fit them. I have been changeing them all over to north american fittings. But the threads are different (close) so I have just been jamming them in.

Did you get this problem solved?
I am having the same problem. I can't seem to grease them.

I don't think he is going to respond, since it was 3 years ago.

Post some pics in a new thread of the grease fittings, I'm sure there is an adapter out there to use on them. Also, let us know if there is something in the way of the fittings.

I thought the same thing Master but then I figured it would renew this post by posting in it.
I have tried mini grease gun and standard size grease gun, the grease just oozes around the fitting. I will go to store today and purchase a couple different sizes and try to replace them and then try my luck again. I want everything to be in working order. I don't like the squeaking noise coming from the buggy.

Thank you Tractor Supply Store!!!!! Changed all 12 grease fittings from weird Chinese size to 6mm regular USA grease gun size.
