Setup
Attaching the Hose
The first time the tool is used, attach the hose to the
pump assembly. Use Teflon
®
tape on the threads of
the hose. Screw the hose into the brass manifold and
tighten.
Setting Up the Pump
1. Place a 5 gallon bucket of lubricant into the dolly.
2. Remove the lid from the bucket.
3. Place the follower plate inside the bucket, setting it
on top of the lubricant with the hub facing up. Press
down to remove any air pockets.

4. Place the pump assembly on top of the bucket, and
slide the suction pipe through the center hole in the
follower plate. (If it is necessary to prime the pump,
refer to “Priming the Pump” below.)
5. Attach the lid to the bucket by tightening the three
thumbscrews.

6. Plug in the power cord:
UG511: Plug the power cord into a grounded •
outlet.
UG512: Plug the power cord into the battery port. •
7. Attach a lubricant applicator to the end of the hose.
Refer to “Selecting and Attaching Applicators.”
(An applicator must be attached to the hose or
lubricant will not flow.)
8. Press the medium speed button on the top of the
pump unit. Step on the foot switch to start pumping.
The pump may take 30 to 60 seconds to build
pressure and pump lubricant out of the collet. If the
lubricant does not flow, prime the pump.
Priming the Pump
Depending on the viscosity of the lubricant, it may be
necessary to prime the pump.
1. Open the bleed valve opposite the pressure gauge
and run the pump at high speed until lubricant is
seen at the bleed valve. Close the valve.
2. If lubricant still does not flow, pull the pump unit out
of the bucket and re-insert the suction tube into the
follower plate while the pump unit is running at high
speed.
