TO CONVERT GUN TO ALLOW FILLING
FROM BULK CONTAINER OR FILLER
PUMP
1) Unscrew the grease tube assembly cap from the
grease tube assembly. Pull on the follower handle
to extract the follower and spring from the grease
tube assembly.
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 pump assembly.
3) Reassemble follower into grease tube assembly
and position with the follower handle so that the
grease tube assembly cap can be tightened onto the
container tube.
TO FILL THE GUN FROM BULK CON-
TAINER
1) Remove pump assembly from grease tube assembly.
2) Pack lubricant into cavity of the pump assembly.
3) Insert the open end of the grease tube assembly into
lubricant. Slowly pull the follower handle back while
pushing the grease tube assembly deeper into the
lubricant to prevent air pockets from being pulled into
the grease tube assembly.
4) When the follower rod is fully extended, pull it side-
ways to latch the rod groove into the keyhole slot in
the grease tube assembly cap.
5) Loosely assemble the pump assembly to the grease
tube assembly. Release the follower rod from the

approximately 8 inches (20 cm). Disengage the follower
rod from the follower by rotating the follower handle.
Push the follower rod into the grease tube assembly.

2) Pull the trigger in short bursts to operate gun until
trapped air is expelled. Disengage the follower rod
from the follower by rotating the follower handle.
Push the follower rod into the grease tube assembly.
3) If step 2 fails, unscrew the grease tube assembly
1-1/2 turns from the pump assembly.
4) Exert force on the follower handle until lubricant
oozes from the grease tube assembly and pump
assembly interface.
5) Tighten grease tube assembly into the pump assem-
