Yeah, i literally just did everything in this video, and the grease does not come out after pumping it a 1000 times .

[@landon_8888]

Literally completely different than your own instructions that are included with it. But nonetheless this thing is absolute garbage.

Seems that the common thread is that these grease guns are garbage. I’ve tried several pt guns and followed these instruction and still no success.

Not the worst thing in the world but followed the video and no success. Had to pump the bottom as well as the handle and kept trying until a steady stream was being released. Did the job.

I bought one today. There were no instructions. And I have not been able to get it to pump grease. I made many attempts after trying different “solutions “ and none worked. I think I will agree with some of the other commenters. POS

Great video! I loaded a similar grease gun from the other end today...big struggle, but got it done! This is a much better technique.

They don’t work half the time

Great tips, simple but crucial, as you stated!👍

Do not buy this grease gun. It’s garbage. The directions in the video are different than the directions that come with the paperweight that’s built like a grease gun and neither way works. I shouldn’t even have to look up a YT video or use the directions to get it to work seeing as I’ve used plenty other grease guns. Trash!
