Hi,
I have a Massey 1547 with a 1530 FEL. The FEL has some fittings that are in set in the frame of the loader about 3 inches. I have my grease gun tip stuck on one of the fittings and can't get it break loose. I can't get to the fitting because the hole is just big enough for the grease gun tip. Any ideas how I can get the tip to break loose? Thanks

IF you have room, to get to it, put a wrench on the hex nearest the tip of the grease gun, then with your fingers or pliers, loosen that grease gun tip and it'll come right off. If you don't have room to do that . . . , well, I'd probably try a hard, quick jerk and hope it came off instead pulling the zerk out.

Have you thought of replacement of the zerk with a short flex hose,say about 4" long with a zerk at the end?
(Or) Purchase a new grease gun tip that has adjustable zerk jaws. The jaws tightness can be loosen by opening the adjustment at the tip.
;)
