Just joined. Have a problem removing the grease fittings on the mower deck. The fitting bases turn
but will not back out. I would prefer not to cut them out and possibly leave part of the fitting inside the
arbor. Any solutions other than drilling and tapping new holes for new fittings?
Thanks in advance for your comments.

are you sure it was not just over tightened and possibly has stripped threads? usually if you take a pocket knife blad and wedge it between the spindle and the zerk while you uncrew it.. it may come out.
