Safety Information

To fill the gun from
bulk container
1 Remove head and plunger assembly from
container tube.
2 Pack lubricant into cavity of the head and
plunger assembly.
3 Insert the open end of the container tube
into lubricant. Pull the follower handle
back while pushing the container tube
deeper into the lubricant to prevent air
pockets from being pulled into the con-
tainer tube.
4 When the follower rod is fully extended,
pull it sideways to latch the rod groove into
the keyhole slot in the container cap.
5 Loosely assemble the head and plunger
assembly to the filled container tube.
Release the follower rod from the
container cap and disengage the follower
rod from the follower by rotating the
follower handle. Push the follower rod into
the container. Slowly unscrew the con-
tainer tube from the head and plunger
assembly until lubricant oozes from the
interface. Tighten container tube into the
head and plunger assembly.
To fill the gun with a
filler pump
Engage the follower rod with the follower by
rotating the follower handle. Insert the gun
filler nipple into the filler pump socket. Oper-
ate the filler pump to fill the container.
When the follower rod groove is exposed,
the container is filled (follower rod will be ex-
tended approximately 8 in. (20 cm)).
Disengage the follower rod from the follower
by rotating the follower handle. Push the
follower rod into the container.
To expel air pockets
1 Withdraw the follower rod from the
grease tube assembly cap and engage it
with the follower by rotating the follower
handle. Exert the force on the follower
handle after opening the vent/filler fitting
(18) († fig. 5).
2 Pull the trigger in short bursts to operate
gun until trapped air is expelled. Disen-
gage the follower rod from the follower by
rotation the follower handle. Push the fol-
lower rod into the grease tube assembly.
3 If the step 2 fails, unscrew the grease tube
assembly 1
1
/2 turns from the pump
assembly.
4 Exert force on the follower handle until lu-
bricant oozes from the grease tube
assembly and pump assembly interface.
5 Tighten grease tube assembly into the
pump assembly. Disengage the follower
rod from the follower by rotation the fol-
lower handle. Push the follower rod into
the grease tube assembly.
To convert gun to
allow filling from bulk
container or filler
pump*
1 Unscrew the container cap from the con-
tainer tube. Pull on the follower handle to
extract the follower and spring from the
container tube.
2 Grasp follower between thumb and fore-
finger and flip the follower lip from the
rear to the front side.

Notice
The follower resembles a cup.
When the gun is assembled for use with
bulk lubricant, the cup opens toward the
head assembly.
3 Reassemble follower into container tube
and position with the follower handle so
that the container cap can be tightened
onto the container tube.
