Helena pop it in as an answer and I'll give you the points. I'm pretty sure this is correct with your slant.
Billh (asker) Jul 14, 2013:
Thanks Helena good point indeed.
Helena Chavarria Jul 14, 2013:
But I don't think they would supply lubrication points. I would say your text refers to the grease gun used for lubricating the landing gear scissors.
Billh (asker) Jul 14, 2013:
I think it may be lubrication points in scissors of main landing gear

but not sure

lubricators for main landing gear scissors

I think 'lubricators' covers it because your text doesn't specify the kind of lubrication kit they use.

Thanks Helena that's great. I'm against the clock and it is going off now.....
Hi, In the end I used 'lubrication equipment' as I thought that this would cover all bases on this one.
Peer comment(s):

agree Charles Davis : Presumably too late, but I am pretty sure engrasadores here refers to lubrication fittings, also known as lube fittings. In other words, parts, not tools. // Oh yes, I think it will be fine. I just added this for the record :)

If Bill used 'lubricators', maybe it will be understood...
Something went wrong...
