Thanks Pete.............Also The Greaser is the nuts. I've been taking helicopters apart just to re-grease the bearings with the proper tool. Thanks again...Al

I had occasion to use the greaser for the first time last week.  I'm very pleased! I bought a used Xcell Pro I from a guy about 100 miles from me.  Before the first flight, I decided to perform std tail rotor gearbox maintenance: greasing and re-Loctite bearings to the shafts.  However, this time, I also re-greased the bearings for the gearbox and the control bell crank.  I am very impressed.  The Greaser is very easy and effective.  I believe the bearings were pretty much out of grease because they weighted significantly more after using The Greaser.  I don't have a gram scale (I need one,) but it was obvious to me; even my fiancé could determine the heavier bearing with ease.  Also, I didn't notice any "old" grease come through the shield, only the 76 grease you sold me.  It was just as easy greasing the small bell crank bearings.

I am a little upset that I have a new maintenance task and data to keep track of (when was X bearing last greased?)  But, I'm confident that this task will result in a smoother, more reliable and longer lasting helicopter.

The Greaser is a "why didn't I think of that" innovation.  I hope you got your patent!!

Best Regards,
Dennis D'Annunzio

Hi Pete,

I just received your Greaser and love it. I read your FAQ and found it
very informative.


(NOTE: I asked Beavis to evaluate "The Greaser" sometime back you will find his review at:

Hi Beavis,

.............Would you be interested in evaluating The "Greaser"? Most on the
rec.modelheli. news group value your opinion. I do sometimes :)

I'd be happy to Pete. (Only sometimes???? :-)

I am willing to send you one for that purpose. No strings attached, you call
it as you see it. ......................................http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kevin.maxfield/

Hi Pete. I received The Greaser today and I had to try it out. I used it on My Xcell and I'm really impressed. I cleaned the exterior of the bearing (as you said to do in the instructions) and put it in the greaser. The bearing went five years and about 25 hours of run time with no maintenance. I couldn't believe what those bearings were running in. Looked to be lubricants from fuel with a whole lot of dirt or dust mixed together. I'm addicted! I'm sort of a clean freak in the first place, so this will fit in perfect with all of my other favorite tools. Really easy to use and works great. Thanks again.......

 
Fred.

Hi Pete:

 
Finally got the Greaser out of the box and used it for the first time tonight!
 
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!!!
 
Took new bearings from BOCA and flushed out the stock grease and put in my own High Speed Bearing Grease, similar to your recommended grease.    Since it's winter up here now, I'll be working on all my machines to get the high speed bearings, cleaned and re-greased.
 
Thanks for inventing such a great tool!

Dear Sir:

A friend and I purchased one of your greasers each at IRCHA this year I
have have to say that it is a must have for all heli pilots. I just
disassembled my machine over the weekend to grease up the bearings,
only to have found that there was no grease in the bearings to begin
with. I would have to say that probably by the end of the year I would
have had to replace all the bearings if it were not for your greaser.
The machine runs much smoother and is even more quiet than it was when
it was new. Thanks again for such a great product. .................
You may contact me at jklabnik@bigfoot.com or
epitech@usaor.net.

Again, thank you for your time and thank you for such a great product.

Best regards,

Joe Klabnik


 Dear Pete,

/........................The Greaser is fantastic!   I couldn't believe how well-made it was:
it looks like an aircraft part.  I also like really like having the
cover so that I don't have to clean the Greaser each time and can
always have it ready for use.

I'm amazed how well it works even with bearing shields in place. 
In fact, after cleaning the bearings in solvent and drying them, I
put the shields back on before using the Greaser. (Note: Removing the shields is not necessary-Pete) I think it packs
them with fewer voids that way.  It also forces out any remaining
traces of solvent.

/..........................Bottom line: with the Greaser, I can now pack 16 bearings from a
pair of skates in a few minutes.  It now takes much longer to clean
the bearings than it does to pack them. 

Please feel free to use any quotes you want from this letter in your
marketing.  I really can't say enough good things about the Greaser and
the terrific service I got from Precision RC products.  Thanks a million!!!

Best regards,

Mark

Thanks for the update. It was "sitting" at the post office........................
So I do have 'The Greaser' now and I must say it is an excellent device! I never realized how poorly of a re-packing job I was doing until now, but to see the dirty grease flow out of even shielded bearings, that is proof-positive of a great product.


I guarantee you will be satisfied with "the greaser" or I will buy it back no questions asked.
