Does anyone own or have used the cordless electric grease gun by dewalt?
How do you like it? I’m thinking about ordering one.

I used some cordless grease guns back at the plant. They're cool if someone else buys them but no way in hell I'd spend my own money on that. It's good if you're greasing giant bearings or seals that take a case of grease. For trailer bearings and bushhog ujoints it's a massive waste of money.

Yes. Love it. Grease 14’ bushog and 2 commercial kubota ztrs in a fraction of the time it took with the hand pump. Plus you can vary the speeds and it’s clean...

I have had the Lincoln cordless for years. Battery died on it so I made a cord with alligator clips to hook to battery of machine or truck. I like it a lot.

Thanks. Going to order one tonight.

Yea, greasing tractors, disks, batwing bush hogs, backhoes, dozers, trackhoes is why I’m getting it.
Pneumatic guns require compressors to run

I have the dewalt. Worth every fricking penny

Been through several pistol grip and pneumatic And they don’t even come close. Can grease my tractor in under 5 min without getting grease all over me fighting to get pneumatic one to prime up. Watch amazon think I got mine for around $120.

You will never regret that purchase unless it quits working.

Am I the only WW2 nerd who thought you were talking about the M3 Submachine gun.

We have one and love it. Not Dewalt but it’s cordless and blue. We grease our equipment frequently and it’s phenomenal. Part I like is you can use 1 hand to squeeze trigger and other to hold on grease fitting if needed.

$200 on Amazon isn’t that much money if it lasts and you have the use for it.

The bleeder screw on them is a complete pain to tune and get it to run a full tube of grease. Google dewalt grease gun problems and there are several sites that discuss it in detail

If you have a dozer and skid steer with a million combined alemite fittings, you’ll definitely spend money on one after greasing manually once.
