What happens here

All pivot points on the loader's boom and bucket attachment are greased using a Snap-on grease gun to ensure smooth operation and longevity. Additionally, two counterweight kits from Cast Loaders are added to the front of the machine. The first kit is bolted directly to the frame, and the second, an add-on kit weighing about 440 pounds, is bolted over the first to enhance stability and lifting capacity. Bolts are tightened with the Milwaukee Fuel M18 impact driver.

Goal: Lubricate moving parts and increase machine stability.
