Parker Brand pole trimmer attachment

Posted by Paul Alexander on September 4, 2020 at 10:23pm

Just bought a Parker Brand 5 in 1 multi tool as just starting out and no money.

Anyone know how I can grease the chainsaw attachment as the oil tank is too close to the grease nipple for my grease gun to attach. Emailed Parker Brand and they don't know 😲

Thanks

    You might be able to fit one of these to your grease gun....... then undo the grease nipple from the machine and just press this into the hole where the nipple was.    I use one to use on my Stihl stuff though I do drill the hole in the centre, out slightly to  get more grease through      https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CONICAL-GREASE-GUN-NIPPLE-CONNECTOR-LUMA...

    The handy thing with the "conical" connector is that you can tell when the gearbox is full as you can feel it lifting slightly off the hole in the  machine gearbox............ with a grease nipple, you've no idea till it starts squeezing out various  places... often where you don't really want it.
