Hi
I’m thinking of getting Milwaukee grease guns to grease my machinery (for convenience and that one fitting that doesn’t want to grease). I’m filling all my handheld grease guns bulk with a hand- or airpowered pump. Does the grease gun come with the fitting needed for pump filling or do I need to retro fit it; if so, where can I get that part?
Thanks
I don’t see where the M18 grease gun comes with a bulk fill fitting, but I did find this: https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products-Repository/North-America/Accessories/Miscellaneous/Applicators/49-16-2646.
Depending on your needs that may work, but I’ll search for an adapter later if I get the time.

Hi, that looks good but in order for bulk filling, all you need to do is flip the rubber “seal” around. It just needs a way to be bulk filled from the front. https://www.toolsid.com/lincoln/grease-gun-filler-nipple-mpn-91108.html this is what needs to be at the front of the gun. You ram it into the delivery socket and pump it up. Just unsure wether the m18 comes with it, or even has a hole in it to put the nipple in. (I know, bad wording).
I swear I have seen those Milwaukees been bulk pump filled before

It looks like there are two ways to bulk fill, including using a coupler. Page three of the attachment should cover it. I would think that bulk fill nipples are probably pretty standard.

Cheers, so the way I see it is remove No10 in the diagram you sent me and put in the link I posted?
It looks like number 14, the loader coupler. The third picture at this link shows the threaded hole: https://www.factoryauthorizedoutlet.com/products/milwaukee-2646-20-m18-18-volt-2-speed-48-inch-hose-grease-gun-bare-tool#!
