Title: Grease gun for truckmount
Post by: Patti on February 19, 2007, 12:42:46 pm
Hello,

Can anyone recommend a really good grease gun that we could use on our Hydramaster Spitfire?

I'm heartily sick of my husband ranting and raving that he can't reach to grease the TM - despite using any one of the numerous amount of different grease guns that he's bought lately. 

Apparently there's one nipple in a very awkward place and nothing will reach it.

So if anyone out there has an ideas please tell me before he drives me crazy!

Never have trouble reaching nipples ever  ;)

Serioulsy tho, we have a greasegun that seems to do the trick, couldnt tell you the make it was bought of the booty for a few quid, it reaches our Spitfire nipples fine.

Why not try contacting Hydramaster see what they use?

an extention flex hose will do the trick,
are you just using a grease gun with a rigid nozzle?

I knew it was going to be dangerous using the word 'nipple' ::) !!!

Geoff,

He's using a flex hose but the metal bit at the end is a bit too long.

We asked Hydramaster, nothing they have suggested has worked though. It's just a really tight space to get in to.
