Is it OK to use for the Monty wheels?

I have dexter E-Z Lube Bearings on my cougar 325srx. Did two of the four wheels yesterday. I removed the wheels completely to get proper access to inspect and grease.
First time I have used this system. The video on dexters website is to pump grease thru the system until you see the new grease replace the old.

The easiest way seems to be changing the colour of the grease. I bought Mystik JT-6 which is red and replaced the existing black grease in the system. It takes a ton of grease to do this process so be prepared to have 3-4 tubes ready.
Here is the chart for recommended grease all lithium based. They warn against mixing with other non-lithium based grease it may cause failure so double check what you are using.
