Thanks.

This is all I found in the Lippert manual:
Electric Landing Gear - Extend jacks and wipe down inner and outer jacks and apply dry lube to inner. Inspect bevel gears in top of jack to be free of dirt and contamination.
AFAIK, dry lube is a spray-on so I am scratching my head about the zerk fittings. I'm old school enough to want to squirt grease into the zerks and onto the bevel gears up top at least once a year.
There's a bunch of info on maintenance of the hydraulic landing gear systems in the Lippert manual, but not much at all on the electric ones. I just spent some time wandering through Lippert's web site and all I can find are lots of parts and circuit info. Nothing on maintenance so far.
