Thanks for the video but my best trick is to eliminate the air pocket before you screw the gun together. 1. Take off the plasbottom cap. 2. Take off the aluminum pop top. 3. With the aluminum pop top, scoop out some grease from the opposite end and smear it flush or a little higher on the end where the pop top was. 4. Now put the grease tube into the body and give the body several turns and release the T handle. 5. It will pump grease instantly or much quicker depending on how well you did the procedure. I've done hundreds of tubes this way.

Really useful. Especially the air lock tip! Many thanks.

Thank you, I know this is probably super basic for many men but some of us never used these. Also the zerk attachment made by this company is awesome, it was more expensive then my actual grease gun but makes the task so much easier.

Worked like magic! Thanks a million!

Awesome..... short and to the point. Your tip at the 2:41 mark just saved me from wasting a 14 oz tube of Red "N" Tacky and going through a nasty clean-up mess!

Great video. Brief and to the point . Thanks!!

Just got my pistol grip LockNLube gun this afternoon and followed the video, and lubed up a piece of equipment. I followed the video and the priming was easy. Two other guns would not seal to the zerk fitting and this system worked perfectly! This is the first grease gun I have ever used and not got a grease all over my hands. Really a good product!

This worked for me on a Bauer 20v gun... Thank you!

Been using this for at least a year, love it! No longer need three hands, at least for this work, haha.

great work thank you

Thanks, man. Couldn’t seem to get my new lock n lube grease gun primed. Works like a charm now

When i did it, went smooth but I couldnt get the plunger in.. Was in a rush.. Didnt know to twist. Thought something was wrong with the gun So i did the messy way and emptied the grease into the gun🙈. Thanks for the vid

Thank you for showing how to troubleshoot the airlock problem! That saved me.

Just got one. Took 3 min to set up. with help from this video of course.

Great video, now I'm going to look for all the old grease guns that they said the did not work, Thanks

I cant wait to try the lock and lube coupler

Thank you sir.

Thank you

Thanks

Thanks,

TY

I’m glad you made this video because the instructions that come with the lock n lube gun are very incomplete and unclear.

Super

I wish I would have watched this video before just ruined my brand new LockNLube pistol grip gun. Unscrewed and loaded from the T-handle end, oops! Also loaded the cartridge backwards. I thought I was following the instructions correctly but nope. Rookie mistakes, all my fault. Replacement lever grip model is on its way now. Maybe I will hang the pistol grip on my wall of shame as a $70 reminder to slow down in the future :)

I just tried to grease the air on the universal joints on the front axle of my Ford F250 but the grease all seemed to come out around the air instead of going into the u-joint. Any tips on getting a good fit on the air? Oh, the loading and priming went perfectly according to your video, so thanks.

I've got 2 different greases I want to use with one grease gun. Can I remove one cartridge even though it's half full or more and insert the 2nd one? Thoughts? I hate to buy a second grease gun being as I don't use them very much. Thanks and a very good video

If you have an old grease gun - one that was designed for filling from one of the old round squat tubs - the piston may be too large to fit up inside the plastic tube, because it was meant to be a tight fit on the inside of the metal tube. In that case, you can still fill the gun from a cartridge, but you have to push the grease out of the plastic tube into the body of the grease gun: I made up a wooden 'piston' and pull the plastic tube up around it. Much less messy than the old way.

what i dont understand is how are you able to stab that rod all the way in? Isnt the tube blocking it from going in further? This is some magician stuff.

😊

I've watched this 3 times and I've not gotten one drop to come out. My freakin arm is about to fall off from pumping

Good grief have to be an expert to use grease.

Does this grease gun leak?

uSEFUL TIPS. theother videos were a waste of time. Getting the grease to prime is the tough part.

What grease gun are you using?

My pump handle won’t retract. What causes this? Gun isn’t that old. 2-3 years maybe.

Mine keeps blowing the seals!

Pro Tip, use a ... newspaper, plastic bag, paper towel to dispense the grease onto the worktop; So you don't have to replace the whole new cardboard work top

I don't understand why almost everyone pushes the plunger back in? If you leave it out it's easy to see how much grease is left inside. I worked all my live like this and never had problems. I see so many people having problems with pistols not working when the plunger is pushed inside to 🤷. I wanted to teach some colleagues at work because almost everyone have problems to refill the gun, it doesn't work after they refill. But they all say they saw to do different than i do. I see you had to cut your video to because it took to long. So why most push it back in??

Thanks
