Recommend me a manual grease gun?

If anyone else uses your machines they will be far more likely to grease it with a g coupler. Don't know who first said it but "the only thing that won't wear out on a hire machine is the grease gun".

A guy I know used to hire out his diggers. He always put a grease gun in with the machine. He got a call one time to say the grease gun was broken, so he drove off to the site, with a replacement grease gun in hand.

 

Turns out the first grease gun wouldn't work as the "digger driver" on the job had put the cartridge in upside down.

If its pumping grease but just not connecting get a new hose and coupler, the couplers are a wearing part and dirt cheap.

The reiner guns are good and work by vacuum so suck the grease from the tube not push it out, a lot less messy.  £30 should just about get you a non branded one (reiner/fuchs genuine at least twice that).

Other than that do a bit of googling and bit of trial and error
