Product Information

Full details

The Kielder Grease Gun (Kwt-555-06) is designed for professionals and serious DIYers needing fast, effective lubrication for vehicles and machinery. Its key benefit is delivering high-pressure grease with user-controlled flow rates, significantly speeding up maintenance tasks. A potential caveat is that batteries and a charger are sold separately, requiring an additional purchase for immediate use if not already within the Kielder TYPE18 system.

FAQs

What type of grease can I use with this gun?

This gun is compatible with standard grease cartridges and can also be bulk filled. The adjustable flow rate dial helps manage different grease viscosities.

Does it come with a battery and charger?

No, batteries and chargers are sold separately. It is compatible with the Kielder TYPE18 interchangeable battery system.

How do I change the grease cartridge safely?

Use the integrated pressure release valve to relieve system pressure before unscrewing the barrel and replacing the cartridge. This prevents grease spillage and makes the change easier.

What is the warranty period?

A 3-year manufacturer's warranty is provided when registered with Kielder, subject to terms and conditions (UK mainland only).

Can I use the LED light without dispensing grease?

Yes, the LED light can be activated independently to illuminate your work area, making it easier to locate grease fittings.

How do I adjust the flow rate?

There is an adjustable flow rate dial on the tool, typically with 5 speed settings, allowing you to control the amount of grease dispensed per trigger pull.

What is the maximum pressure the gun can deliver?

The Kielder Grease Gun delivers a high pressure of up to 10,000psi.

Troubleshooting

Grease gun not dispensing grease

Check battery charge and connection. Ensure the grease cartridge is properly installed and primed, or that the bulk fill is correctly seated. Verify the pressure release valve is closed. Check for blockages in the hose or nozzle.

Low pressure output

Ensure the selected flow rate is appropriate for the task. Check for air pockets in the system; prime the pump again. Verify the grease viscosity is suitable for the tool and ambient temperature.

Leaking grease

Check the seal on the grease cartridge or bulk fill. Ensure the barrel is securely tightened. Inspect the hose connections and the gun's nozzle for damage.

Battery not recognized

Ensure the battery is a Kielder TYPE18 compatible model and is correctly seated. Clean the battery contacts and the tool's contact points.
