As for adjustment. You should just be able to feel a slight movement as you rock the wheel with the wheel on (holding opposite edges of the tyre [i.e. roadwheel on]).

Use a bloody dial gauge like it says in the manual and a weighed out amount of MB grease like it says in the manual. You can't eyeball something this critical. Some people do and get away with it - but they're doing just that,getting away with it.
You can't mix grease types, if there's old grease in ther and it's mixed with new grease you're in big trouble.
Here, hear Richard! I totally agree. The correct method is with a dial gauge.

That one isn't appropriate for setting MB's bearings. Spec is 0.0008 (eight ten-thousandths), and the above gauge has resolution of 0.001 (one thousandth).
Try surplus equipment houses. That's where I bought mine for about $20.
Good luck,
