My flex air has 6 grease fittings on. I have seen nowhere when and if I should be greasing them. And if so can too much grease be put in

The Lippert Trailair Tri-Glide Pin Box is the only Lippert Trailair Pin Box I am aware of with grease fittings. That said, it is recommend to grease these fittings (see photo) every 1,500 - 2,000 miles. In regards to the exact amount, this is not provided as it will vary by case and how much is needed but a safe bet would be a few pumps for each fittings.
The LubriMatic Mini Grease Gun # 30-800 and grease cartridges part # L54FR would be great for keeping up with the above pin box maintenance.
