I of course do this (Wipe excess etc), but they are not sealed bearings. The amount of grease isn't a lot and my main concern is in longer duty cycles. That is why I'm asking here. The main thing to me is not that massive amounts of grease are getting into the soil, but rather the energy of it. The energy of the heavy duty greases are such that I don't like to even get them on my hands and it would be such a joy to use a product that one doesn't shy away from (kinda like going over to someone's house for dinner and finding that they are serving biodynamic food) Increasing the number of aspects that give one a sense of warmth, a sense of joy, can only be beneficial in the end. Kinda just fine tuning the little things that make us feel more whole. C.
