There are two ways you can lubricate the Bulldog Round Topwind Trailer Jack, # BD1701480317. If the jack can be removed from the trailer, you can hold the jack upside down and apply a spray lubricant inside the inner jack tube. This will allow the lubricant to run down the screw and you can simply extend and retract the jack a few times to make sure the lubricant makes good contact with the inner screw and bearings.

The second method would be to remove the bolt holding the handle to the jack. This will allow you to slide the inner tube out from the outer tube. Once the inner tube is removed, you can apply grease or another lubricant to the main screw.
