 Turn the grease tube counterclockwise to loosen and
remove.
 With the grease tube pointed up, grab the grease tube
handle and move it away from the narrow slot.
 Slowly allow the grease tube handle to move forward and
eject the grease cartridge (not included).
LOADING GREASE FROM A BULK CONTAINER
See Figures 6 - 9, page 12.
The grease gun can be loaded from a bulk container either
directly or through a filler pump.
To load directly from a bulk container:
 Lock the switch trigger in the "off" position and remove
the battery pack.
 Turn the grease tube counterclockwise to loosen and
remove.
 Hold the grease tube firmly and turn the plunger assembly
counterclockwise to loosen.
 Remove the plunger assembly from the grease tube.
 Use a clean dry cloth to remove any old grease from
inside the tube.
 Slide the plunger assembly back into the grease tube and
rotate clockwise to secure.
 With the grease tube handle pushed all the way in,
submerge the open end of the grease tube into the bulk
container.
 Slowly pull the spring-loaded grease tube handle
completely out to suction grease into the tube. Then move
it to the side into the narrow slot to lock it into place.
NOTE: To prevent air pockets from forming inside the
grease tube, keep the open end of the tube completely
submerged and away from the surface.
 Remove the grease tube from the bulk container.
 Use a clean dry cloth to remove excess grease.
 Place the grease tube back onto the grease gun and
rotate clockwise to secure.
NOTE: Be careful to avoid cross-threading, which can
cause the grease tube to leak during use.
 Grab the grease tube handle and move it away from the
narrow slot.
 Slowly allow the grease tube handle to move forward and
into the grease tube.
NOTE: After the grease is loaded, use the purge valve to
purge any air trapped in the grease tube. For more details,
see Using the Purge Valve later in the manual.
OPERATION
To load from a bulk container using a filler pump and low
pressure coupler:
 Lock the switch trigger in the "off" position and remove
the battery pack.
 Turn the grease tube counterclockwise to loosen and
remove.
 Remove the plunger assembly as described earlier.
 Use a clean dry cloth to remove any old grease from
inside the tube.
 Connect the plunger assembly to the grease tube.
 Place the grease tube back onto the grease gun and
rotate clockwise to secure.
NOTE: Be careful to avoid cross-threading, which can
cause the grease tube to leak during use.
 Locate the fill plug near the base of the tool.
 Using a hex wrench, loosen and remove the fill plug from
the bulk fill port. Store the fill plug for later use.
 Install a 1/8 in. low pressure coupler (not provided) into
the fill port.
NOTE: Ensure that the coupler (not provided) is
compatible with the grease gun and the filler pump (not
provided). If the coupler is not compatible or if it fits
improperly, the grease may not load correctly.
WARNING:
NEVER install a high pressure coupler into the bulk fill
port. Using the wrong type of coupler could allow too
much pressure to build inside the grease gun. Excessive
pressure could cause parts of the tool to leak or burst
and can lead to serious personal injury.
 Slowly pull the grease tube handle out while rotating it
counterclockwise to disengage it from the rest of the
plunger assembly.
NOTE: Do not move the handle inside of the narrow slot.
 Once the handle is disengaged, gently move it back into
the grease tube.
 Attach the low pressure coupler (not provided) on the
grease gun to the low pressure coupler on the filler pump
(not provided).
NOTE: The couplers are designed to fit loosely together
and are not meant to form a tight seal. This design
prevents the grease gun from being overfilled.
 Using the filler pump (not provided), load grease into the
unit until the grease tube handle extends about 8 in.
NOTE: If the handle does not extend, it may not be
disengaged from the rest of the plunger assembly.
Disengage the handle and try again.
