Does the HD 6 use grease to adjust? If not what tools will be needed? Thanks

The hydraulic track adjusters using grease were an option. If you do not have the optional track adjusters you need a track wrench. On the manual adjusters there are (2) 1/2" x 2" bolts that loosen the lock on the adjuster threads. Some of the yokes have grease fittings for the standard adjuster threads.

You will need to put a 4 foot pipe on the end of the track wrench and if you have time give it a good soak with WD40 or similar after letting off the lock plate Dozer mentioned

When I rebuilt the undercarriage on my 5 I drilled the clamps for grease zerks. Sure did solve the problem of adjusting the tracks.
