17500500 Model 1750 500 Lever Operated Grease Gun, 500cc

This is a great grease gun. I've not used one for many years but this does indeed do the trick. My tip for removing this from a grease nipple is:-You don't need to use force, there's a "knack".When connected to the nipple pull the pipe over as far as it will go in any direction - again, you don't need to use force, just pull the pipe over until it won't go any further without force. As if you're trying to "snap off" the pipe from the nipple i guess. It won't snap off of course, but this motion makes the end of the pipe, where it's connected to the nipple, deflect as much as possible.Maintaining this "pull", turn the pipe a full 180 degrees, as if you're drawing a big "o" in the air. You will find that as the end of the pipe rotates on the nipple a "disconnection point" is reached and hey presto off it pops. It will only do this if you are maintaining that deflection on the end of the pipe, as this stops you from accidentally disconnecting the unit while you're pumping grease in there.I spent ages trying to wrench the end of the pipe off the nipple with a pair of pliers and was lucky i didn't break anything. One of those situations where you know you're doing something wrong but can't figure out how to get the damn thing off.I actually discovered how to get it off by chance but you really DO NOT need to use force to get this off. If you're forcing the unit off you're doing it wrong.Hope this helps.

I was wary of buying any grease gun as they all seem to have mixed reviews! This one works really well - easy to load, without mess, and as for getting it on and off grease nipples - as another reviewer says, push the hose so it is out of line with the nipple and it pulls off - but it is so easy, I can hardly describe it as a "technique". Seems to develop good pressure - grease appearing all around the joints. Highly recommended.

This is an excellent grease gun, easy to use and giving good feed pressure to the grease. It attaches well and seals to the grease nipples, but it can be very difficult to remove! I struggled till I followed the advice in 'OP's' review on Amazon. This made removal much simpler (though still a little tricky). I also had to take a Stanley knife to the grease cartridge to get it to insert into the gun!

My first grease gun, and I'm very happy with it. I bulk filled it, then had some trouble priming it, but once I used the air bleed, it started working perfectly, and has done so since. Have only used it about half a dozen times, and it will get infrequent use, but it seems to be of good quality to me, so I expect it to remain in good order.

Got one of these to use around the farm instead of having to lug around my drum type grease guns. Ignore the bad reviews this is fantastic. Very easy to bulk fill with no air pockets (use your common sense or look on youtube for directions) Well made and grippy unit that doesnt leak at all thanks to the quality hose and nipple. Best of all it the terrific pumping pressure it generates, easily unblocks old hard grease with 2 strokes max. I'm going to order 2 more for different greases

Bought this for general purpose around workshop. Was not sure about buying looking at other peoples reviews but there seemed to be a lot more positive than negative so bought one.Have no complaints at all. Found out it's very easy to detach from nipple if you lean over and turn like other review states, no force needed.Also found it very easy to load grease cartridge and use with no air problems. Great product for price.Would recommend.

Works but the nozzle gets stuck.

Very pleased with this purchase. The flexible hose works great. Item is of nice build quality and nice weight metal. Has been a good addition to the workshop.

Produit de qualité. L'embout ne se déboîte pas des graisseurs après un léger serrage à la main.

Sehr gut

Se nota que es beta robusta y buenos acabados

Pistolet à graisse de qualité.

Bello, ben fatto, facilissimo da usare... è Beta!Pochi euro in più di un commerciale, ma la qualità è tangibile.Morbidissimo da usare, almeno con il grasso della BARDHAL (2001528).La preparazione è semplice, almeno per la prima volta, consiglio di ingrassare leggermente l'asta dello spingi molla, per farla scivolare facilmente nel fermo (operazione da farsi svitando il fondo, tirando fuori tutto il gruppo molla; è tutto avvitato non perdete nulla. Non è obbligatorio ma nel primo tentativo la mia asta non scorreva)Procedimento ricarica:si preme la levetta argentata sul fondosi tira il pompante per estrarlo al massimoseparate le due parti, quella superiore dal cilindro (parte argentata da quella nera)si inserisce la cartuccia dal lato aperto dopo aver tolto il tappo (una ha il tappo l'altra ha l'apertura a strappo tipo scatoletta del tonno), cmq non potete sbagliare, ha il versostrappate il tappo e riavvitate il tuttopremete il tasto argentato sul fondo e fate scorrere dentro l'astaavvitate il tubicino e pompate, il gioco è fattoPs: l'attacco all'ingrassatore (la vite forata dove andrete a pompare il grasso) funziona benissimo e non servono mani per tenerlo... per toglierlo invece, mi sembra di aver capito (sono un novizio) che prima lo si spinge un pò e poi lo si estrae, questo non mi è ancora immediato... :-)Aggiorno per la testina: per toglierla si deve svitare, basta allentarla, per far si che i denti perdano la presa... avevo valutato la cosa appena preso, ma era talmente serrata che non si muoveva... con una chiave inglese e un paio di pinze, risolto (con la delicatezza si ottiene tutto)
