    Usually for when you have to grease something that never gets greased much. I've worked on some RGN's that probably haven't seen grease since new.

    They do when the zerk is being a pain in the rear and you don't feel like changing 5 zerks every grease job.

    I did pick up a Milwaukee m18 grease gun. It is the butter on hot toast

    All of mine get greased weekly.
    Couldn't imagine letting it go ungreased for long.

    That's the way to do it. Those bush roads pound out the grease pretty quick. My job from when I was about 12 up until 17 was to steam clean dad's truck and trailer every Saturday morning and then grease it. Plus help fix whatever else that needed attention. That's how I earned my allowance. Plus I got to drive the truck up to the house when I was done :cool:. We added a mid week greasing of the driveline, trailer cams and log bunks. The trailer was an older tridem Peerless pole trailer and was just solid mounted walking beams and we were finding the bush roads were just hammering the grease out.

    I only grease weekly, but every truck, trailer, jeep etc gets it. What i have to remember to start doing more often is changing the oil in the Honda engines that run the hydraulics.

    With my Milwaukee 12V, I can grease the entire truck maybe 6+ times before I need to recharge the battery.

    Add this......

    Lincoln pneumatic here. I'd tried 3 other (cheaper) pneumatics and was hesitant to pull the trigger on the Lincoln, but at a former job had used a Lincoln battery powered and the only complain I had was with the batteries. Only downside is dragging around the air line...but as long as I've got air, I know it'll get the job done.
