Grease the Assist Tower Posts
The two Assist Tower Posts on the R80EX need to be greased above and below where the Assist
Tower Arms attach (so the Assist Tower Arms can easily slide up and down).
The Tire Changer comes from the factory with both Assist Tower Posts already greased, but eventually

BendPak Ranger recommends a lithium-based grease that includes molybdenum and graphite. For
example, Extreme Pressure Moly-Graph® Multi-Purpose Grease from CRC/Sat-Lube®.
