Oil & Fuel Legacy grease gun. Load and Lock

   / Legacy grease gun. Load and Lock #11  
Thanks davrow for the compliment. You nailed it too. When I first started out greasing my tractor, I too was having a hard time with some zerks, especially getting the tip of the gun to remove from the 'captive' zerks on the loader arms. I kept looking at the tip and saying to myself, eventually, why would they go to the trouble to machine a knurled pattern into the tip metal if there was no point in it being there?! Bingo! It unscrews.:duh:

And yes, it should come with directions, which could be as simple as telling buyers to unscrew the knurled section for tip loosening/tightening on the zerk. Again, duh! Such a simple thing, but so much confusion because of no directions whatsoever.:confused2: They could even print it on the box like add milk to cereal to make it taste better.

Didn't everyone read the old grease gun and a screwdriver thread? (see below) I had a hard time convincing some folks that tip really did unscrew!

I think the same Korean gorilla that puts on the Kioti hydraulic filters also has a sideline of assembling grease gun coupler tips.:)

Apparently, LockNLube is a US trademark, but the inventor/patent holder is based in South Africa. It looks like the patent filing was in 2009, so it could be quite a while before cheaper knock-offs become available...that will be great when it happens, but, for now, it is still worth the (inflated!) price.
