Pneumatic grease gun

[downsizingnow48]

I like the idea of the outdoor hose reel.

I have the Lincoln pneumatic and it is troublefree. I use it most the time on the B21 which has a whole lot of grease points. For trailer hubs (ezlube) I have a Lincoln manual that is also troublefree.

I also tried the HF gun and also threw it away after a couple attempts.

I have a good brand one, but I live where it get's cold.

When the grease get's cold, the gun "sounds like" it's moving grease, but it doesn't always do so, works fairly good in the summer though...

I just don't trust them anymore...

I have the Lincoln pneumatic one and it works far better than any of my manual ones. Granted the manual ones are real cheapies.

I used to use the Lincoln gun. It worked well, just slapped it on a coiled retractable air hose and there you go. The drawback that I hadn't seen here was the air discharge. Every time it pumps a burst of air comes out. If you're crawling around in the dirt it blows hard enough to blow debris in your eye. I think you can direct it away if you think of it first. I use the M18 gun now.

I bought an air operated grease gun from Northern quite a few years ago and it has worked well. I bought it specifically to get at some very tight king pins on a truck and it sure did the trick for me.

I bought a cheap nappa air grease gun and had nothing but problems with it ! I only wanted a air gun because of getting into tight places where you could not use a two handed pump type gun [which I still have and feel works best most dependable] Then I bought a Lincoln and its pretty good but some times its a pain to bleed . I hate the idea of buying another battery cordless tool and when the battery dies in 5 years the tool is useless because they don't use those type of batteries anymore . I have a grave yard in the barn of tools that have old type of batteries they don't make anymore or it cost less to buy new tool and batteries than to buy just batteries.:drink:

My issue with a battery operated one exactly. If my current multi battery setup included the grease gun I would probably get it but I'm not buying a one shot pony just for it to be absolete when the battery is gone after using it so little

I have a cordless DeWalt. It works great. The Lock-n-Lube fitting works OK unless dealing with a recessed zerk. I have about half a dozen fitting on the tractor/grapple/rear blade that are recessed and I use the hand pump on them. The Lock-n-Lube will not fit in the recess.

Make up a small 1/8" piece of pipe, with a grease zerk on one end and a std grease coupler on the other.

Put the zerk in your loc n lube and push the other end on your recessed zerks and grease away...

Just make sure that the tube is rated for the 12,000 PSI that your grease gun can put out...
