... especially if I have little to no experience with it. Can't recall the last time I used a grease gun. Attempted to grease the tractor today for the first time (bought it on auction with under 20 hours and it now has 30 hours on it). Bought a gun and on the FIRST fitting it wouldn't come off. Called a friend with much more tractor and mechanical experience than I'll ever have and asked if there was something I was doing wrong. He immediately said "It's a new gun isn't it?"
Me - "Yep".
Him - "They do that until they break in. It'll just take some force."
Well, you see the results. Not the threads at the top. Completely BROKE inside the gun. Any great ideas how to get it off now?
It took a LOT of force to break it (obviously) and it swivels and turns easily so not sure how I'm going to get it off of there now...
