Service manual for E35i specifies "Extra Heavy Gear Shield grease" (ref pg. 10-140-3 in the manual & 10-140-1 also). The grease is applied through grease zerks. Bobcat however markets three greases in tubes for std grease guns, none as specified above. One dealer recommends the grey grease, Extreme High Pressure, which has 3% moly disulfide and a high temp lithium thickener. Another recommends the blue grease, Supreme Heavy Duty grease, which has stated attributes "extra high performance lithium complex grease with extreme pressure additives", "superb adhesion", "ideal for ...sliding and pivoting movements", and so on. The third grease marketed, green in color, is simply a "Multi- Purpose" grease for high speed bearings and ball joints and likely not the intended grease for these two zerks.
