Cartridge
Loading
1. Unscrew grease gun head from the barrel counter-clockwise.
2. Pull back the plunger rod handle all the way back & lock it with
the end cap.
3. Remove the plastic cap from
the open end of the grease
cartridge & fully insert into the
empty grease gun barrel. Make
sure the rim of the cartridge is
seated on the rim of the barrel.
4. Remove the metal pull tab
seal from the grease cartridge.
5. Screw back the grease gun head onto the barrel, making sure to tighten only half-way,
leaving 2-3 turns before the head is fully tight.
6. Disconnect the plunger rod from the end cap.
7. Force the plunger rod in & out a few times in order to compress the grease and force out trapped
air in the grease to come out from the loose connection between the grease gun barrel and the
grease gun head.
8. Hand tighten the grease gun head fully onto the barrel.
9. Start operating the grease gun handle till grease starts flowing out continuously. (Note that the first
discharge of grease may have some air bubbles).
10. Once all air bubbles are removed, fully tighten the grease gun head onto the barrel. Now,
connect grease gun extension and coupler onto the grease gun outlet using a thread sealant such as
teflon, to make a seal-proof connection. DO NOT over tighten as this may fracture the grease gun
outlet.
11. Start operating the grease gun. Grease will begin to flow out from the coupler. Keep running it, till
a bubble free clear stream of grease flows out.
