Milwaukee grease gun

photograph?

I did ask him butno photo sorry,he said it was easy enough, the holder threaded in to the same place as the cartridge holder, hope that makes sense

Anytime it’s been faultless untill now

With a new cartridge or at any time?
I tend to loosely screw on a new cartridge and release the plunger to give it time to push a bit of air out then screw it fully after. (If that makes sense!)

I wouldn't go pneumatic again. I have a pneumatic gun free to good home if anyone wants one!
I would go with the Milwaukee but it's back to crappy cartridges bit I don't like!

Use the pneumatic gun to refill the milwaukee. No need for cartridges

We have some Q8 grease cartridges
Won`t be buying any more
Terrible for airlocking, in conventional as well as battery

can you reg the charger for the extended warranty , i was able to do the gun and the battery ok, but the web site won't do the charger

No, iirc charger doesn't come under the remit of the extended warranty.

Chargers are pretty reliable, and if they fail they hardly will break the bank. Can get standard chargers for around £25 or so and the rapid ones (FC at the end of the label) are around £35

For anyone importing a Milwaukee tool kit that includes a charger from the states, be aware you will need a local 240v charger as Milwaukee chargers aren’t dual voltage. So the 110 volt one is good for putting on eBay (USA) only.

I only bought naked from the states for that reason, they can be good enough value on their own but when looking at the kit prices the gloss kinda goes off when you factor in the luxury of customs charges.

Also I think that they have cottoned on that stuff was being sent over here because it was cheaper there so prices have went up on a right few of the tools but maybe it's just me, or inflation, or orange 1....

Accidentally squashed my main grease gun and wondering about a milwaukee one.
Would a M12 or M18 be best bearing in mind the batteries I already have are 18v?

 

[JimAndy]

the m18 has a higher pressure for getting grease into stuff
