5.0 out of 5 stars Works great.

Glad we went with makita! Easy to load grease and get primed. Just wish we would have gotten a long time ago!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good features. Well designed.

Most things Makita makes are very well thought through. This is no exception very well designed. I grease my excavator with almost 50 zerks in less than an hour. I have head attachments to get in hard to reach places. Works better than expected with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lube it up

This thing works as great as commercial drum grease gun. Way better than my pneumatic snap on grease gun I threw that POS in the trash years ago. I used to just go by my buddies shop and grease my bus but they retired. So I saw this and all my other battery tools are Mikita decided to try it out. Wow worked great was done in no time. As far as loading grease cartridges all it takes is a little finesse. I definitely recommend this to anyone that uses a grease gun. So fun I was looking for the quarter slot.
