I think there is a real trend to overcomplicate things with tech. Perhaps I'm a bit of a luddite, but I see value in sticking with my McNaught manual pump as well. I think the extra effort you have to make to squeeze the handle is offset by how compact and light they are, and there are no battery charge or obsolescence issues, so the manual pump will still be useable in another 10 years.Originally Posted by V8Ian

SupporterI think for home use that's correct, but we aren't.
We've had air operated, pistol grip, lever action and cordless.
They all have their place, but if you are doing a lot of greasing the cordless is handy for sure.
We have been using the clip on nozzles for years, and the latest revision is much more Slimline and works very well, better than the earlier ones.

After seeing the boys on site trying to grease up a WA900 manually with no success, then switch to the Milwaukee 18v gun and that grease just start a flowing! - I’m sold on them…

Actually for Saitch, but could apply to anyone in a nonprofessional situation.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

499373751_9859656137462188_5813562116270004600_n.jpghave always had a sour relationship with grease guns. $20 ones are terrible, $300 alemlube ones are just as bad and I have forever had air lock problems and hours of swearing and being converted in grease trying to do a simple lube job.
Enter this bad boy, How I have survived this long without one is these is mind blowing. Instantly primed and works brilliantly. I reckon for on the road trips I'll use the digger lid cartridge and kajo adaptor but for around home to save a few bucks I'll use normal cartridges.
If you, like me have a love hate relationship with grease guns, do yourself a favour and get one of these !! Not cheap, but worth every cent in my opinion. I got mine with the 3/4" rattle gun as a combo and there isn't much that won't undo either.

SubscriberI'll be hung, drawn and quartered at this rate. The diesel bloke I mentioned earlier, has the rattle gun, too. A weapon.
