9. Fasten the valve for air drain when you see the
grease coming out of the hole.
WARNING:
Use a low-pressure loader fitting
only. Never use a high-pressure loader fitting
otherwise it may damage the tool and cause a
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly when filling the
grease by using a filler pump. The tool may fall and
cause an injury.
NOTICE:
Stop filling the grease when you see
the groove on the rod. Otherwise the grease leak-
age may occur.
NOTE: If the tool cannot pour grease accurately, air
may remain in the flow path of the grease. Loosen
the valve for air drain and eject the air. (Refer to the
section for ejection of air.)
Ejection of air
If air remains in the flow path of the grease, the tool
cannot pour grease accurately. Eject the air before each
use and also when the tool seems to work improperly
due to air.
1. To eject air from inside of the tool, loosen the valve
for air drain. Air comes out from the hole for air drain.
2.
Fasten the valve when you see the grease coming
out of the hole.
► Fig.27: 1. Valve
WARNING:
Wear the protective goggles when
ejecting the air.
CAUTION:
Wipe off the grease that comes
out from the air drain with a dry cloth or the like.
Otherwise it may cause slipping and result in an
injury.
Dispensing the grease
In the following cases, purge the old grease inside the
tool before use;
— When using the tool for the first time or;
— When using different type of the grease from
previous use.
With the new grease filled in the barrel, run the tool
for a while until the old grease is pushed out from the
adapter.
NOTICE:
Do not connect the adapter to the
grease nipple until the old grease is purged. If
different kinds of grease are mixed, the performance
of the grease may decline.
NOTE: The tool has been tested at the factory and
small amount of the grease remains.
Perform the following procedure to dispense the
grease.
CAUTION:
Always check the speed mode
before operation.
NOTICE:
Before connecting the adapter to the
grease nipple, always make sure that the tool
dispenses grease properly.
NOTICE:
Do not connect the adapter to the
grease nipple forcibly.
1. Wipe the adapter and the grease nipple before
connecting. Push the adapter straight at the grease
nipple.
2. Pull the switch trigger to dispense the grease.
► Fig.28
3.
When dispensing the grease is finished, remove
the adapter from the grease nipple. Tilt the adapter
slightly to release internal pressure and then remove
the adapter from the grease nipple.
Wipe off the grease from the adapter and the grease
nipple.
NOTICE:
Do not leave the tool running even after
the grease depleted. It may shorten the life of the
tool.
NOTE: If the tool cannot pour grease accurately, air
may remain in the flow path of the grease. Loosen
the valve for air drain and eject the air. (Refer to the
section for ejection of air.)
NOTE: If the internal pressure rises while the switch
trigger is not fully pulled, the protection system works
and the motor will stop even though the tool does
not reach the maximum operating pressure. When
injecting the grease at high pressure, pull the switch
trigger fully.
NOTE: The tool stops automatically when the tool
keep running for more than 6 minutes.
In the case that the tool does not
pour grease accurately
If the tool cannot pour grease accurately, air may
remain in the flow path of the grease. Eject the air
according to the following procedure.
1. Loosen the valve for air drain.
► Fig.29: 1. Valve
2.
Eject the air that remains in the flow path of the
grease.

3. Fasten the valve for air drain when you see the
grease coming out of the hole.
