As per title, both my cheapo ones have shat themselves in the last couple of months, both standard lever, one flexi hose, one rigid.

Time to give someone other than Toolstation my money.

Those of you with this machine will know it's a pain to operate the gun onto the roller nipples with the plastic cover flipped back.

Any recommendations?

Are the trigger guns any good?

I only need to grease this machine and a Carlton 900, not a Cat D6, so I don't need an electric gun or Fucksgrease system (possibly spelt wrong).

 

Time wasters welcome, but I will fill your PM inbox with amputee porn.

I prefer a pistol style grease gun as its easy to use. I use Draper ones I've also got a side leaver one for harder to grease big things. A locking coupler is a good investment as well.

JCB grease gun from spectrum plant , if you like a long flexible shaft it's for you.

The blue grease they sell on there is also good for the machine, strangley with each order they send you a pack of wine gums, I keep going back.

fuchs pistol type one handed pump with screw in cartridges, works well for us and compared to traditional ones more grease goes into the bearing than over oneself !!! :)
