Description
Read priming instructions on page 2 prior to
use.
Models 555 and 555-E have a dual-leverage feature
which allows them to be operated in either volume or
pressure modes. With the link in the volume position,
the guns deliver 1 ounce (28.4 grams) of grease in 30
strokes. Shifting the link to the pressure position allows
the guns to develop 7500 psi (517 Bar).
The guns are capable of 3-way loading: cartridge,
suction, and loader pump (requires optional loader
fitting 306740 or 322610). Capacity is 16 ounces (454
grams) bulk or 14.5 ounce cartridge.
The guns are spring-primed and have an air bleed
valve to aid priming. The seals are Buna-N (nitrile) for
compatibility with petroleum based greases.
