To prime the grease gun, follow these steps:
1. Hold the hose assembly by the spring strain relief and point it away from your body.
2. Pull the trigger for 3 seconds, release, and repeat until grease begins to flow from the fitting.
3. If grease does not appear after several attempts, manually prime the grease gun:
a. Pull back the rod and turn the rod handle to lock it into the plunger.
b. Press in the bleed valve while manually pressing in the rod.
c. Once grease begins to flow from the fitting, rotate the rod handle to release the plunger.
d. Press the rod completely into the cylinder.
Note: The tool may have a small amount of grease left in the pump body, hose, and coupler assembly from factory testing. It is recommended to purge the tool with the brand of grease you will be using before actual use.
