PowerLuber Grease Gun
Removing Empty Grease Cartridge
1) Pull back on the follower handle until the follower rod is fully
extended and latch the follower rod groove into the slot on
the tube cap.
2) Unscrew the grease tube assembly (9) (Fig. 6) from the
PowerLuber.
3) Carefully release the follower handle to eject the empty
cartridge from container tube.
Installing Grease Cartridge
1) Visually check the follower seal lip direction before load-
ing a new cartridge. The follower seal lip must be directed
toward the follower handle or rear side for cartridge loading.
See Fig. 3. To change the direction of the follower seal,
unscrew tube cap from grease tube assembly and pull on
the handle to remove follower seal from tube. Flip follower
seal over and re-assemble.
2) Pull back on the follower handle and latch the follower rod
groove into the slot on the tube cap.
3) Remove the plastic cap from the grease cartridge and insert
cartridge into the container tube.
4) Remove the pull tab from grease cartridge and screw
grease tube assembly (9) into pump assembly (4).
5) Release follower rod from slot. Purge air from pump. See
air purging instructions.
TO CONVERT GUN TO ALLOW FILLING FROM
BULK CONTAINER OR FILLER PUMP
1) Unscrew the grease tube assembly cap from the grease
tube assembly. Pull on the follower handle to extract the
follower and spring from the grease tube assembly.
2) Grasp follower between thumb and forefinger and flip the
follower lip from the rear to the front side.
NOTE. The follower resembles a cup. When the gun is
assembled for use with bulk lubricant, the cup
opens toward the pump assembly.
3) Reassemble follower into grease tube assembly and posi-
tion with the follower handle so that the grease tube assem-
bly cap can be tightened onto the container tube.

TO FILL THE GUN FROM BULK CONTAINER

1) Remove pump assembly from grease tube assembly.
2) Pack lubricant into cavity of the pump assembly.
3) Insert the open end of the grease tube assembly into lubri-
cant. Slowly pull the follower handle back while pushing the
grease tube assembly deeper into the lubricant to prevent
air pockets from being pulled into the grease tube assem-
bly.
4) When the follower rod is fully extended, pull it sideways to
latch the rod groove into the keyhole slot in the
grease tube assembly cap.

5) Loosely assemble the pump assembly to the grease tube
assembly. Release the follower rod from the grease tube
assembly cap and disengage the follower rod from the
follower by rotating the follower handle. Push the fol-
lower rod into the grease tube assembly. Slowly unscrew
the grease tube assembly from the pump assembly until
lubricant oozes from the interface. Tighten grease tube
assembly into the pump assembly.
Figure 4

TO FILL THE GUN WITH A FILLER PUMP

Engage the follower rod with the follower by rotating the fol-
lower handle. Insert the gun filler nipple into the filler pump
socket. Operate the filler pump to fill the container. When the
follower rod groove is exposed, the grease tube assembly is
filled. The follower rod will be extended approximately 8 inches
(20 cm). Disengage the follower rod from the follower by rotat-
ing the follower handle. Push the follower rod into the grease
tube assembly.

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 force on the follower handle while holding
down the vent valve 23 (Figure 7).
2) Pull the trigger in short bursts to operate gun until trapped
air is expelled. Disengage the follower rod from the follower
by rotating the follower handle. Push the follower rod into
the grease tube assembly.
3) If step 2 fails, unscrew the grease tube assembly 1-1/2
turns from the pump assembly.
4) Exert force on the follower handle until lubricant 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 rotating the
follower handle. Push the follower rod into the grease tube
assembly.
