What happens here

Following the discovery of the hydraulic leak, Zakk continues with the maintenance tasks. He begins greasing the ASV VT-70 Posi-Track skid steer. He encounters a minor setback when he realizes he is missing the grease zerk for the Mecalac AX 1000 loader. He initially thought it was still in the cab, but it's gone. He speculates that it might have been thrown away by someone who didn't recognize its importance. Zakk mentions he has more grease zerks in his car, highlighting the importance of having spare parts for common maintenance items.

Goal: Complete greasing for the ASV skid steer and prepare to resolve the missing grease zerk issue for the Mecalac loader.
