Product Details Manufacturer Part Number: 5895Brand: OEM-Spec Lube Gun AccessoryPart Type: Flexible Grease Gun ExtensionLength: 12 inchesFunction: Extends reach of grease gun for hard-to-access fittingsApplication: Rotary mower decks, idler pulleys, spindles, and drivetrain componentsConstruction: Flexible high-pressure hose with grease gun coupling fittingsConnection Style: Standard grease gun coupler to extension fittingOEM Status: OEM-spec replacement/maintenance accessory Function Extends grease gun reach to service remote or recessed zerk (grease) fittings Provides flexibility to navigate around belts, guards, and tight spaces Helps ensure consistent lubrication of bearings, pivots, and idler points Reduces the need to disassemble guards or pulleys for lubrication access Improves maintenance efficiency and prolongs component service life Compatible With The 5895 12″ Flexible Extension is used with: Grease guns (such as the #1727 lube gun or any standard coupler) Rotary mower decks with hard-to-reach grease fittings Idler pulleys, spindles, and pivot points where direct grease gun access is restricted Maintenance tasks on commercial and residential turf equipment requiring extended reach Note: Always verify grease fitting type and hose connection compatibility with your grease gun before use. How It’s Used The flexible extension attaches between a grease gun and the coupler to reach remote fittings: Prepare Equipment: Park mower on level ground, shut off engine, and disconnect spark plug. Load Grease Gun: Fill the #1727 lube gun with correct grade of grease for mower service. Attach Extension: Secure the 5895 flexible extension to the grease gun’s coupler or nozzle. Locate Fittings: Identify hard-to-reach grease points on deck spindles, idlers, and pivots. Apply Grease: Position the flexible extension onto the zerk fitting and pump grease until sufficient lubrication is achieved. Finish: Wipe excess grease and store extension for future use. Proper grease application ensures smooth bearing operation and reduced wear. Suggested Maintenance Inspect extension hose for cracks, leaks, or wear before each use Keep threaded/coupler fittings clean to ensure positive engagement Replace flexible extension if grease seepage or hose damage occurs Use OEM-spec or compatible extensions to maintain pressure ratings Store in a clean, dry area to prolong service life The 5895 12″ Flexible Extension for #1727 Lube Gun (Rotary) is a practical OEM-spec maintenance accessory that improves lubrication access, simplifies servicing of hard-to-reach fittings, and helps maintain smooth rotary mower operation and extended component life.
