- Powerful 12 volt motor delivers a consistent grease flow at up to 6000 PSI for faster, more effective lubrication than manual methods
- PowerLuber's balanced design makes lubing hard-to-reach fittings routine
- High-capacity 12 volt NiCad battery
- Machined and hardened piston
- Includes custom carrying case designed to hold optional rechargeable battery and two optional grease cartridges (grease not included)
Even though it's 12V, it has more than enough power to squeeze out the grease, even if you had the gun sitting in a cold garage mid-winter. I found that filling my truck's joints with green grease was exceedingly easier than the last time I had done so with a hand trigger style gun.
When you pick this up and have it in your hand, you know it means business. It doesn't feel "plastic-ey", like it's going to break at any moment. With it resting on my chest, I had ample hose available to reach whatever I needed to reach under my 4x4 truck, which I was thankful for ,given its weight.
No problems whatsoever priming it. They gave all sorts of instructions as to how to prime it if necessary, but I just put the tube in, pushed in the handle in the bottom, and pulled the trigger and a few seconds later grease was kicking out and has kicked out every trigger pull since then.
You can hear the pump cycling through, so there is an audible noise every time it kicks in some grease. This is good since it will enable you to gauge how much grease is going in if you can't see the fitting and are just adding some by feel. Each pump noise equals one full squeeze of a standard grease gun, in my estimation. Each pump is less than a second, so it doesn't take very long either.
Bottom line is, this is an impressive tool. It does what it's supposed to, and it does it well.
Buy Lincoln Lubrication 1242 12 Volt DC Cordless Rechargeable Grease Gun with Case and Charger Now
I've had this for over 5 years and it has worked perfectly each time. Originally bought it to lubricate my steer skid loader, daily. Sold that and use it on my cars and trucks. Very handy I love it. Sometimes I go up to a year between uses and the battery is still charged and going strong. You will like this very much.Lincoln has been making shop equipment for many a year. It is well thought out and works well. But just like one of the other reviewers said, what you see in the picture is not what you get. Just the greaser, one battery, the charger and case are included.This grease gun is a heavy duty maintenance tool used to lube D-8 Cat's and other cargo handling equipment. It makes the mechanics job easier and hence, the proper preventative maintenance is always completed before the equipment is needed for work.An easy to use and load product. I actually enjoy greasing our tractor and I get more grease into the fittings than I get on myself now.
