roller grease gun

I got an old pail type grease gun that came with my TD9.I checked the pressure and it only makes 1500 psi.What you guys think about using this with corn head grease for my 420?

Putting new cylinders on for lifting blade and want to make blade power angle.Blade is made by "angle dozer company" not a stock JD set-up.Stock pump works good,stock valve is leaky and slow to respond.
