Review on πŸ”§ Reliable Macnaught C7 Premium Gear Oil Hand Pump: 5 Gallon Size & 10-Year Warranty by Reid Rickerson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good pump but problems with fuel.

This appears to be a good quality pump but I've used it a few times and then when I used it one day my 5 gallon bucket of hydraulic oil ran out. I noticed the nozzle was lying on the bottom with a wet patch in the mud and can only assume that the oil leaked out due to gravity and the nozzle was below the level of the pump. I lost over half a bucket of oil. I have used other low level oil pumps that had a hole in the ring that screwed onto the bucket for a person to hang up the nozzle which also allowed any leaks to flow back into the bucket. This pump does not have this function, so the nozzle may fall to the ground. I'll try to drill a nozzle sized hole in the lid of the next bucket I get to keep the nozzle from hitting the bottom.

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Intervals
