Variable output switch
The variable speed switch permits motor
speed control, the more the trigger is
depressed the higher speed of the motor
and therefore the higher the grease output
of the gun.
Double insulation
The electric PowerLuber utilizes a double
insulated motor design for safety. The dou-
ble insulation eliminates the need for a three
wire grounded cord. All exposed metal parts
are isolated from the internal metal motor
components with a double layer of protec-
tion insulation. Double insulated tools do not
need to be grounded.
Inspection
1 Visually inspect for damaged, loose or
missing parts.
2 If tool is worn or damaged, remove from
service. Contact an authorized service
center for damage assessment or repair.
Operation
Changing “L” or “H” mode

General description
Appropriate use
The Lincoln PowerLuber was developed for
manual lubrication of grease points and
includes a safety valve, stroke counter, out-
put lever, whip hose with coupler and 6 ft.
(1,8 m) power cord.
The PowerLuber is driven by a small
electric motor connected to a three-stage
planetary gear reducer. The rotary motion
of the motor is converted into a reciprocat-
ing motion of the plunger through an eccen-
tric and yoke mechanism. The PowerLuber
is a positive displacement single acting
pump.
Safety valve
The safety valve ( † fig. 1 ) is factory set to
relieve pressure above 7,000 psi (482 bar) .
The valve also is an indicator of the bearing
and lubrication line conditions. If grease
comes out of the safety valve, it indicates a
clogged or tight bearing or fitting or line.
Correct this before continuing lubrication
with the PowerLuber.
Stroke counter
The tool is equipped with capability for cali-
bration. This is accomplished by measuring
(weighing) grease flow output and dividing
the weight of grease by number of strokes.
Simply put your thumb on the stroke coun-
ter button (
† fig. 1 ) during operation of the
tool and count.
Some Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEM’s) recommend the exact amount of
grease to lubricate critical bearings. By
counting the strokes you will know how
much grease has been dispensed to
lubricate the bearing.
Table 2 details the
grease output verse number of strokes.
Output
Stroke count Output per stroke
10 0.20 oz (5,7 g)
15 0.30 oz (8,5 g)
20 0.40 oz (11,4 g)
Note: Lincoln recommends this feature only on low output/
high pressure mode.
Do not operate tool if outer casing is
cracked, chipped or damaged
Double insulated system is intended
to protect user from shock resulting
from a break in the tool’s internal
insulation.
Observe all normal safety precautions
to avoid electrical shock.
W A R N I N G
• “L” (low output/high pressure)
• “H” (high output/low pressure)
When motor is not running, push the red
lever ( † fig. 1 ) until letter “L” or “H” will be
completely visible in the window. In case the
red lever is not completely shifted/
engaged, hold this lever and bump the
switch to engage gears.
High output is recommended if the tool is
used to lubricate large bearings not requir-
ing high pressure, beyond 3,000 psi
(206 bar) . Also, high output is recommend-
ed if tool is used to refill small reservoirs of
automatic lubrication systems.
Low output is recommended if the tool is
used in construction, agricultural and min-
ing applications and general lubrication.
Low output will provide the maximum pres-
sure of up to 7,000 psi
(482 bar) the tool is
capable of producing.
Prime the PowerLuber after each refill or
grease cartridge change. Prime the gun
before using it to lubricate grease points.
To prime, operate the gun until grease
flows from the hose. Use vent valve
(
† fig. 1 ) to expel air pockets.
! Notice
To prevent damage to the gears in
the transmission, the motor must be
completely stopped before changing the
lever to the “L” or “H” (low or high) mode
of operation.
