FAQs
What type of lubricant should I use with the Grease Joint Rejuvenator?
The tool is designed to force *light oil* into grease fittings to clear blockages. Avoid using heavy grease directly with this tool for clearing purposes.
How quickly can I expect to clear a clogged fitting?
The Grease Joint Rejuvenator can typically clear and replenish old or dirty grease joints in less than a minute.
What does 'rejuvenator' mean in this context?
It means the tool not only opens clogged fittings but also cleans them and replenishes the grease cavity, restoring its functionality.
Can this tool be used on all types of grease fittings?
It is designed for standard grease fittings where a blockage can be cleared with light oil. Its effectiveness may vary on fittings that are severely damaged or corroded.
What is included with the product?
The product includes the Grease Joint Rejuvenator tool and a plastic case for storage.
Is this tool suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications?
While effective for clearing stubborn fittings, its design focuses on light oil injection. For high-volume or heavy-duty greasing, separate greasing equipment may be necessary.
Troubleshooting
Grease fitting still won't accept oil after use
Ensure you are using a light oil and that the Rejuvenator is making a proper seal with the fitting. Attempt a second application or consider if the fitting is severely damaged beyond simple clearing.
Tool feels stiff or difficult to operate
Check for any internal blockages or dried lubricant. Clean the tool thoroughly and lubricate moving parts with a light oil.
Leakage from the tool during operation
Ensure the Rejuvenator is securely attached to the grease fitting. Check seals and connections for damage or wear and replace if necessary.
