    My shoulder is out of commission and I need to grease the tractor. I’m considering getting a cordless grease gun. Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    My guys mostly use dewalt or Mac cordless grease guns. The Mac will use a dewalt battery.

    I have a ton of old Dewalt 18 volt cordless tools that I use. I think there is a 20 volt conversion adapter to use on the old tools so I’m considering a dewalt.

    Thank you! I have bursitis in that shoulder. I got a steroid shot last week but it’s still sore.

    I had that once, I was young when I had it and I think it took a good three weeks before it was back to normal.

    I've read guys really like the milwaukee. If you already have cordless tools, its easier to stick with that brand as you have batteries that will fit it most likely.

    I bought the Lincoln one over 10 years ago and I'm still on the original batteries.

    Jack Straw I sure hope that shoulder heal soon. As for the grease gun, I'll bet one Carrie Farwood could do the job! And no batteries needed.

    I have the DeWalt and I like it. The main reason and I bought it was the fact thAt I have several of their batteries for other tools.

    We have two dewalts on the farm work well, when I worked in the mine we usedMilwaukee. If I was to choose a new one??? Probably Milwaukee just because battery life.


    Wood always heats you twice, unless you rehandle like I do then it’s four or five times!

    I have a Milwaukee 18v grease gun and it works great. Primes easy and the battery lasts a very long time. The whip is nice and long too.
