Product Information

Full details

The DeWalt DCGG581N 18V XR Cordless Grease Gun is designed for professionals in mechanics, plant operation, agriculture, and maintenance who need efficient and powerful lubrication for heavy-duty equipment. Its key benefit is the high-pressure and high-flow capability, allowing for quick servicing of clogged or general grease fittings. A key consideration is that it is a bare unit, requiring a separate battery and charger.

FAQs

What type of battery does the DeWalt DCGG581N use?

The DeWalt DCGG581N is compatible with all DeWalt 18V XR batteries. Please note that batteries and chargers are sold separately.

What is the maximum pressure the grease gun can deliver?

The DeWalt DCGG581N delivers a maximum operating pressure of 690 bar (10,000 psi).

Can I use this grease gun with bulk grease, not just cartridges?

Yes, the DeWalt DCGG581N can be loaded with either standard 410g grease cartridges or up to 455g of bulk grease.

How do I clear trapped air from the system?

The grease gun features a built-in bleeder valve that allows you to quickly and easily release trapped air.

What is the advantage of the dual speed design?

The dual speed design allows you to select between a high-pressure mode for clearing clogged fittings and a high-flow mode for rapid greasing of multiple points, giving you control for different applications.

Is a battery and charger included with this product?

No, this is a bare unit and does not include a battery or charger. These must be purchased separately.

How long is the flexible hose?

The unit comes with a 1.2-meter flexible hose designed for better reach and manoeuvrability.

Troubleshooting

Grease gun not dispensing grease.

Check that the battery is properly inserted and charged. Ensure the grease cartridge is loaded correctly and the follower rod is making contact. Try operating the variable speed trigger to ensure it's not set to zero flow. Use the bleeder valve to release any trapped air.

Low grease output or slow flow.

Confirm the correct speed setting is selected for the application. Ensure the grease viscosity is suitable for the ambient temperature. Check for blockages in the hose or coupler. Bleed any trapped air from the system.

Grease leaks from the gun or hose connection.

Inspect the grease cartridge seal and ensure it is properly seated. Check the coupler for damage and ensure it is securely attached to the grease fitting. Verify that hose connections are tight.

Excessive air in the system.

Use the built-in bleeder valve to release trapped air. Ensure the follower plate in the cartridge is making proper contact with the grease.
