Haha, I literally laughed out loud.

Thank you, I always used marine grease on my boat trailer. I sold it a few years ago and hope to buy another one someday. I agree that actually using the grease is the most important thing.

Great idea! I've been thinking about doing that as well.

lets be honest you bought the lock n lube trigger because amazon suggested it. dont lie gyazo.com/9a8f34bf8466e672fd042880ed9f2610

@@ggezpro7163 I bought the lock n lube because I had been wanting to buy if for 5 years had nothing to do with Amazon or anything else I dont lie to people I cant stand liars

That's awesome, she must know you well to give that for a gift. It's an awesome tool, with great ratings!

Thanks! I'm thinking about getting the lock & lube end for this one.

Cool, it's a great grease gun!

I agree, I use their red and tacky grease.

Thank you!

Thanks, I'm looking into it.

@@MarkThomasBuilder, they do grease and a whole range of lube sprays and engine additives also I haven't used anything else since I was put onto it

Thanks I'll give it a try. I'll probably start with a lube spray.

Good call! I just used this a few days ago on my trailer bearings. It's still going strong.

I haven't tried that grease out yet. I'll keep an eye out for it.

That's a great question. I often just do enough from experience. Some items I grease show some grease flowing out in other areas, like trailer bearings. 3 grinds seems like a good amount if you do it on a somewhat regular basis.

I had to do a little research to find out about the priming tricks.

That's good stuff. My Scag mower calls for red grease.

Yes

Humm, I haven't heard about that being a common problem that that grease gun. Is it under warranty still?

Mine also does that and I haven't fixed it yet. I think it might have to do with it possibly being set up for bulk grease filling vs tubes. If I remember correctly you might have to reverse the follower so the lip faces the other direction for tube canisters. Hope that helps.

I love my Milwauke jacket, lol! DeWalt needs some outdoor gear and I'd gladly wear it. I often see backhoes and excavators get the grease, when at jobsites.

Thanks for the advice, I'll check it out!

No, I believe it's only set up for the traditional type cartridge.

@@MarkThomasBuilder ah okay! thank you! too bad, it's sooo easy like that

That's the Kindling Cracker XL. It's well made and easy and safe to use. I need to make an update video for it.

The cartridges I use in this grease gun are 14oz/397g.

Thanks man, I need to check that out.

Yes.

@@MarkThomasBuilder ty for responding I was hoping it would

Great advice, lol!

Yes, that will work

I'm happy with this one still, which is a year later. It will tackle the outdoor equipment much faster than doing it by hand.

Oliver Maskell, I have all Dewalt 12/20v tools. The grease gun is the only one I hate. I’ve wasted more tubes of grease trying to load it than I can count, and I use CAT Moly EP2 which isn’t cheap. Talked to Dewalt numerous times and they sent me a new cartridge which was no better. Lincoln started the electric grease gun revolution, and they’re still the best.

I will say it’s durable and the battery lasts quite awhile, even in winter in ND. Lots of power to push grease on cold mornings, I use about 5 tubes every day, changing the battery every few days. It can also take a pretty good throw across the jobsite whenever it blows out a brand new tube of grease while reloading it. This also happens a few times per week.

@@russ3164 Cheers for the review, sounds like it's really not ideal for ultra heavy applications. I only have a 2 ton ex which isnt used daily, so wont be using anywhere near the same amount of grease as you. But definitely interesting to hear. Did Dewalt give an answer as to why it keeps blowing out tubes?? I too, run all dewalt tools and have no complaints with the others. Unfortunately here in New Zealand the Dewalt tools are all 18v and they dont make an 18v grease gun. But by the sounds it, that might not be a bad thing now.

They told me they’ve never heard of the problem before, but were quick to send a new tube for it. It worked a little better, but half the time you have to use a channel lock pliers to get it off, and it’s see through (once).

Huh, I haven't had that issue. I just checked the reviews on it and they seem very positive overall.

I know of three that do the same thing . My gun is two months old and a box of Greece though it .

Okay, thanks for letting me know. Have you heard much about the Milwaukee grease gun?

It will work great for that.

i prefer to grease nipples the old fashion way by hand

I showed a 20volt 4-Amp Hour Lithium Ion battery used to power this grease gun, seen at the 2:25 mark of this video. Does that answer your question?

Amsoil NLGI#2 in the warmer climates and #1 in the Winter for Truck, Chassis and Equipment. There's also Arctic for extreme conditions or Water Resistant for Marine, Powersports and trailers. X-treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease, Industrial multi purpose and Racing Grease. Need some? ask me :-)

Badass grease is great I use a case a day on my 470 John Deere trackhoe

Please explain. I got it to dispense grease like I wanted it to.
