Abstract
A greasing device that feeds grease to a portion requiring greasing that is housed inside a housing, and includes a jig and a greasing pipe fixed to the jig. The housing includes a though-hole that extends through the housing. The jig includes an insertion part that is inserted into the through-hole of the housing. A side surface of the insertion part bear a marking-off line at a position a predetermined distance away from a leading end side of the insertion part. A position of the marking-off line is a height position that the greasing pipe does not come into contact with inner components of the housing when the jig is inserted into the through-hole up to the position of the marking-off line.
