4 Wait about 15 seconds after you have started a greasing cycle. Then slowly turn
the test screw further anti-clockwise until the greasing cycle ends (air will start
escaping from the pump).
5 Wait about 15 seconds and start a greasing cycle again.
Replacing the grease cartridge
The CompAlube pump unit is fitted with a grease cartridge that can be replaced
easily and quickly:
1 Before you remove the cover of the cartridge: clean the pump unit and its
surroundings to prevent dirt from entering the pump during cartridge
replacement.
2 The transparent cover has a bayonet catch. Turn it counter-clockwise and lift it
from the pump unit.
3 Remove the empty grease cartridge. Unscrew it counter-clockwise and lift it clear.
Attention: Grease may leak from the cartridge if it is not completely empty.
Prevent grease spills from polluting the environment.
4 Remove the cardboard disc and the rubber gasket, and replace them with new
ones (supplied with the new cartridge). Be sure to fit the cartridge with only a
single rubber gasket!
5 Take a new cartridge that contains the right type of grease, remove its cap, but
do not remove the foil that seals the opening of the cartridge.
6 Place the cartridge onto the pump unit and screw it clockwise. The seal is
automatically broken as the cartridge is screwed in.
7 Clean the transparent cover, place it on the pump unit and turn it clockwise to
lock it.
Bleeding the system
If the grease cartridge was allowed to become completely empty, the pump may
need bleeding:
1 If the system is currently busy on a greasing cycle: Depress the test screw, at the
right hand side of the pump unit, and turn it slowly anti-clockwise until the
running or greasing cycle ends (some air will start escaping from the pump).
2 Open the vent screw (left hand side of the pump).
3 Again depress the test screw and turn it slowly anti-clockwise until a greasing
cycle starts (you will hear air flowing to the pump).
4 Close the vent screw.
5 Repeat this procedure (steps 1 to 4) until a solid stream of grease flows from the
vent opening.
