When the plunger height is correct tighten the pressure pad against the adjuster screw by 
retightening the locking screw lightly (do not over-tighten)  

6.5.6

 

Should further adjustments be required then the procedure should be repeated having 
first loosened the pressure pad screw. 

6.5.7

 

Ensure the plunger and adjusting screw cannot contact the passing train during this time. 

6.6

 

Filling the System 

6.6.1

 

Once the reservoir is fitted to the pump unit fill it up with grease: 

1.

 

Remove the filler dust cap and store it safely. 

2.

 

Attach a suitable drum pump to the 1” Snaplock filling point and secure locking arms 
in clamp position. 

3.

 

Operate the hand pump measuring piston depth periodically to ensure the reservoir 
is not overfilled. On Whitmore Rail products the following measurements are 
applicable. 

Standard Reservoir (LCS102-01) from the reservoir back plate to the rear most surface of the 
piston; see Installation Manual Section 7.1 and 7.2. 

Full is 80mm 
Empty is 280mm  

Small Reservoir (LCS102-30) from the reservoir back plate to the rear most surface of the 
piston; see Installation Manual Section 7.1 and 7.2. 

Full is 50mm 
Empty is 200mm  

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not overfill the reservoir 

 

4.

 

Remove the hand pump and replace the reservoir dust cap. 

6.7

 

Air Lock / Bleeding 

6.7.1

 

Once the reservoir is full, open the bleed screw 
(do not remove) until grease flows from the 
screw. If necessary operate the plungers until 
grease starts flowing. 

6.7.2

 

Once the grease is flowing hold down the plunger 
fully and close the bleed screw, this process 
prevents air from being drawn back into the 
system. 

Note: A reservoir spider (Part No. LCS102-04) should be 
available at this stage should it be necessary to lock the 
reservoir piston back, if the hose or coupling need to be removed for any reason. 

6.8

 

Test the Pumping System 

6.8.1

 

Using a 10mm “T” bar or other suitable tool depress the plunger (not completely down) 
until the grease flows from the outlet pipe.  

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not strike the plunger with a hammer at any stage.
