AUTOMATIC AIR GREASE GUN
MODEL 1162
TO CONVERT GUN TO ALLOW FILLING FROM
BULK CONTAINER OR FILLER PUMP
1) Unscrew the container cap from the container tube. Pull
on the follower handle to extract the follower and spring
from the container tube.
2) Grasp follower between thumb and forefinger and flip the
follower lip from the rear to the front side.
NOTE: The follower resembles a cup. When the gun is
assembled for use with bulk lubricant, the cup
opens toward the head assembly.
3) Reassemble follower into container tube and position
with the follower handle so that the container cap can be
tightened onto the container tube.

TO FILL THE GUN FROM BULK CONTAINER

1) Remove head and plunger assembly from container
tube.
2) Pack lubricant into cavity of the head and plunger
assembly.
3) Insert the open end of the container tube into lubricant.
Slowly pull the follower handle back while pushing the
container tube deeper into the lubricant to prevent air
pockets from being pulled into the container tube.
4) When the follower rod is fully extended, pull it sideways
to latch the rod groove into the keyhole slot in the
container cap.
5) Loosely assemble the head and plunger assembly to the
filled container tube. Release the follower rod from the
container cap and disengage the follower rod from the
follower by rotating the follower handle. Push the follower
rod into the container. Slowly unscrew the container tube
from the head and plunger assembly until lubricant
oozes from the interface. Tighten container tube into the
head and plunger assembly.
