4. Insert the pin into the air filler valve again to release the trapped air. The grease gun is now ready
to use.
Before Each Use
Before each use, prime the grease gun by following the Operation Instructions until grease flows from
the tip. If the grease gun does not prime properly, follow the Assembly Instructions for venting trapped
air. Inspect the overall condition of the grease gun and also look for:
•
a damaged hose,
•
loose hardware,
•
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
•
cracked or broken parts, or
•
any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
Operating Instructions
⚠
WARNING
•
Always wear the proper protective equipment, including ANSI Z87.1 compliant eye protection.
•
High Pressure Fluid Hazard. Do not use a hose pressure rating that is less than the grease
gun.
•
Do not exceed the max pressure of 6000 PSI.
•
Ensure that the trigger is in the OFF position when connecting to the air supply.
The grease coupler provided at the end of the rigid steel extension has a jaw-type construction. The
coupler jaws will snap on to a grease fitting and maintain a tight fit. When connecting the grease
coupler to the grease fitting:
1. Press the grease coupler straight onto the grease fitting to form a snug fit.
2. Squeeze the pistol grip handle to begin injecting grease into the fitting.
3. Once greasing is completed, slightly tilt the grease coupler and then twist and pull back. The tilt-
and-twist action will allow easy removal of the grease coupler from the grease fitting.
