C. HOW TO LOAD YOUR GREASE GUN WITH A LUBRICANT CARTRIDGE:
1. Unscrew the Head Assembly from the barrel of the Grease Gun (See Figure 1). Pack head with Grease (See Figure 2).
2. Pull back the Plunger Rod. When the rod is fully extended, the Plunger Rod locks into place with posi-stop Plunger Lock.
3. Remove the plastic cap from the end of Grease Cartridge and, insert open end first, into the barrel of Grease Gun (See Figure 6)
4. Push the Grease Cartridge into the barrel until the rim of the pull-tab end contacts the rim of the barrel (See Figure 7).
Then remove the pull-tub seal from the end of the Grease Cartridge (See Figure 8).
5. Screw the head back onto the barrel. Tighten the Head Assembly securely (See Figure 4).
6. Unlock the Plunger Rod from the end cap, by releasing the Plunger Lock. This would push the Plunger Rod into the barrel.
7. See Point A (7).
