Air supply connection
• This tool should be connected to a clean, dry air supply with inline oiler and water separator
• Do not allow supply pressure to exceed the maximum stated (see 'Specifications')
• Ensure that water is drained from air system daily
• Ensure that all parts of the system (hoses, couplers, etc.) are correctly rated for the air pressure
to be used
Setting tool power
• The speed/pressure with which grease is expelled can be adjusted by reducing/increasing the air
supply pressure within the range specified in 'Specifications'
Filling with grease
WARNING: Avoid spillages! Clean up spilled grease immediately and DO NOT allow grease to
enter the environment. Spilled grease may cause surfaces to become slippery, causing a slipping
hazard.
IMPORTANT: When refilling the grease gun, ensure you do not introduce any contaminants which
could damage the bearing
1. Ensure the grease gun is disconnected from the air supply before you begin
2. Unscrew the Chamber (7) from the Grease Gun Body (2)
Installing a cartridge
1. Pull the Plunger Handle (5) back so that it is fully extended
2. Remove any packaging from the cartridge
3. Insert the cartridge fully into the chamber, as directed on the cartridge
4. Screw the chamber securely back onto the gun
5. Press the Plunger Release (6) to release the plunger mechanism
Filling from a container
1. Pull the Plunger Handle (5) back so that it is fully extended
2. Use a spatula to pack the grease directly into the chamber, taking care not to accidentally press
the Plunger Release (6)
3. Once filled, clean any excess from the edge of the chamber
4. Screw the chamber securely back onto the gun
5. Press the Plunger Release to release the plunger mechanism
Loading from a filler pump
Note: This is general guidance for a filler pump. Read the instructions provided with your filler
pump in combination with these when filling.
1. Pull the Plunger Handle (5) back so that it is fully extended
2. Hold the grease gun vertically so the Filler Pump Nozzle (11) is at the top and the Plunger
Release (6) cannot be accidentally operated
3. Insert the filler plug on the end of the hose from the filler pump into the Filler Pump Nozzle
4. Operate the filler pump pumping mechanism to load the grease
5. Stop pumping when the required grease is loaded or if there is noticeable resistance to loading
6. Disconnect the filler plug from the Filler Pump Nozzle
7. Press the Plunger Release (6) to release the plunger mechanism
Note: When only partially loading the chamber, carefully control the spring plunger mechanism
so that when the Plunger Release is pressed, you continue to hold the Plunger Handle in order to
control the descent of the plunger mechanism.

Bleeding the grease chamber
• After filling, remove any pockets of air trapped in the chamber:
1. Disconnect from the air supply
2. Check that the plunger is released. If not, depress the Plunger Release (6)
3. Unscrew the Chamber (7) from the Grease Gun Body (2) 1 to 1-1/2 turns
4. Draw back the Plunger Handle (5) fully
5. Push the Plunger Handle all the way in again
6. Retighten the Chamber
7. Depress the Bleed Valve (12) several times to let the air escape
Attaching an extension hose/pipe
The grease gun is supplied with 2 extensions with Couplers (10) attached:
• Flexible Hose (8)
• Rigid Pipe (9)
1. Ensure the Outlet Nozzle (1) is clean
2. Connect the Flexible Hose/Rigid Pipe by screwing the threaded end into the Outlet Nozzle
3. To remove, unscrew it from the Outlet Nozzle
Operation
WARNING: Ensure you are using the correct grease for the individual application, i.e. the type
of grease recommended by the manufacturer of the device to be lubricated (vehicle, machine
part, etc.).
WARNING: Avoid spillage! Clean up spilled grease immediately and DO NOT allow grease to
enter the environment. Spilled grease may cause surfaces to become slippery, causing a hazard.
WARNING: Always wear protective safety glasses and gloves when using grease guns, as the
lubricant will be highly pressurised
1. Connect to suitable air supply – see 'Recommended air supply' (above)
2. Push-fit the Coupler (10) onto the grease nipple of the part to be greased
Note: Make sure grease nipples and fittings are clean before attaching the Coupler
3. Pull the Trigger (3) to start dispensing grease
Note: This is a one-shot grease gun, whereby there is a limited amount of grease discharged with
every press of the Trigger
4. Repeatedly activate the Trigger until sufficient grease has been dispensed
5. Remove the Coupler from the grease nipple by tilting the Coupler then twisting and pulling back
IMPORTANT: Do not try to disengage the Coupler by pulling straight out
6. When you have finished using the grease gun, disconnect the tool from the air supply
WARNING: Be aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use. Always bleed air
pressure from the tool after shutting off air supply.
Maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect from the air supply and depressurise before cleaning or carrying
out any maintenance.
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and
shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
IMPORTANT: There is very little that can go wrong with your air tool and it should be noted that
when an air tool fails to work it is generally because the internal workings have corroded due to
dirty, wet air and failure to follow the instructions given below.
