The later machines have a zerk fitting on the back side of the wheel. It's drilled and tapped into the tube next to the weld for the tube. I did a mod on a 1210 where I drilled the spindle just about at the bottom of the hole that the bolt goes into that holds the wheel on so that when I grease it the grease goes into the bolt hole for the wheel then it comes out behind the bearing. You need to measure how deep the bolt hole is and drill the spindle so that you enter the bolt hole near the bottom. I used the smallest drill that I had then I drilled the bolt through the center also using a very small drill then I drilled and tapped the head of the bolt for a grease fitting.
