Grease Buster update

Still not done, but the kids got off the bus so I thought I would let you know how my day is turning out. After reading your replies I thought I might try out a Grease Buster. Went to town, stopped at three tool stores. Nobody had one, but last stop did an internet search. So with phone number in hand I returned home to call the company. Turns out that the device is made near Dayton Oh. So I thought what the heck, we'll just drive down there and buy one. On the way I would be passing a dealer that has a lot of unusual items so I decided to stop and see if they had one. They did! That saved a couple hours and a lot of gas.
Bought one. Brought it home and put it to work. Yesterday, when I started to grease our 750 drill, two zerks on every row would not take grease. Thats 48 zerks that were going to need attention. After taking out 12 of them and cleaning out the hole, one still would not take any grease. That was when we knew we had to buy this new tool. It worked! The next 12 zerks required various levels of attention, but each of them took grease with less effort than the first 12. I should have the last 24 done before supper. Sorry for the long post but thought that some of you may like to know. Just for your information and to save someone else the headache, Deere says that those pivots need grease every 50 hours. I took that literally and translated that to every 500 acres. Since I plant about 250 acres per year I thought I would be fine to not grease it last year. WRONG!!.
