Full details
The LockNLube Lever Grip Grease Gun (LNL151) is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable and mess-free way to lubricate machinery. Its key benefit is the unique, non-leaking grease coupler that securely locks onto fittings, preventing grease loss and improving efficiency. A potential caveat is the learning curve associated with its specific locking mechanism for first-time users. This grease gun features a robust lever grip, a 20" heavy-duty hose, Loop & Lock storage, and includes a rebuild kit for extended usability.

FAQs
How do I properly attach and detach the locking coupler?
To attach, align the coupler with the grease fitting and push firmly until it clicks and locks. To detach, you may need to slightly wiggle or pull the coupler back while actuating the release mechanism, which is typically part of the coupler head or lever action.
What size grease cartridges does this gun use?
The LockNLube Lever Grip Grease Gun is designed to accept standard 14 oz grease cartridges.
What is included in the rebuild kit?
The rebuild kit typically contains replacement seals and jaws for the grease coupler, allowing you to service and extend the life of the coupler head.
Can I use this grease gun with any type of grease?
Yes, this grease gun is compatible with most standard greases, provided they are in a cartridge format suitable for grease guns.
How do I store the grease gun when not in use?
The gun features 'Loop & Lock' storage technology. Use the integrated loop to hang the gun securely and the lock feature to keep the coupler and hose tidy and prevent mess.
Is the hose replaceable?
While not explicitly stated as easily user-replaceable in standard documentation, the hose is a heavy-duty component. For issues with the hose, it is best to consult the manufacturer's support or a professional repair service.
Troubleshooting
Grease not dispensing
Ensure the grease cartridge is properly seated and there is sufficient grease. Prime the gun by operating the lever several times. Check that the coupler is fully locked onto the fitting.
Coupler leaking or slipping off
Clean both the grease fitting and the inside of the coupler jaws. If the issue persists, replace the seals and jaws using the included rebuild kit.
Lever is difficult to operate
Ensure the grease cartridge is not empty. Check for any obstructions or debris within the gun's mechanism. If using very cold or stiff grease, slight warming may help.
Hose appears kinked or twisted
Utilize the in-line hose swivel to untwist the hose. Avoid sharp bends when storing the gun.
