The bearings that AN Wireless and Array Solutions do call for some grease
and there is a zerk (sp) fitting for a grease gun.  

Rohn bearings should be dry.

Bill.  Normal cleanup and bearing lube of what??? Tower bearing??  or
Tailtwister??
 
I sure hope you didn't put any lube in the thrust bearing.  It is a  no-no
according to Rohn.  from personal experience I have seen the goo that  forms
when these things are lubricated.
