Hello, I am looking at the owners manual trying to get acquainted with my TJ 230D. In the manual it shows the central grease bank and emphasizes the importance of using it twice a day. It hits the front and rear steering cylinders, the lower hinge pin, pillow block, front and rear walking beam.  It says that with the central grease bank you can grease while the machine is in motion. 
Problem is my machine doesn't have one, and I called Nash equipment in NH, the guy didn't know what I was talking about and has never seen one. I am wondering if I can buy one of these or make one and if anyone has a diagram of where these grease lines go. Or any other pertinent info. Any help is much appreciated.

Mine is right next to the seat, in the cab. 2 of mine are inop, pins get replaced over the years and they probably didn't take the time to put the grease lines back on

On mine it is right behind the battery box cover. I can take a pic tomorrow if it would be helpful. On mine it only does the steering cyl I have to crawl underneath to do the cradles. At some point I'm gonna hook them all up. The one for the front of the steering cyl would be almost impossible to grease without it.

Thanks, A picture would do wonders, I looked and could see a place where it might have been. How hard is it to run new lines, is it worth it, what do you guys do?
