To load grease into the Sealey AK481 Grease Gun, unscrew the barrel, insert a new grease cartridge, and screw the barrel back onto the head. Ensure the plunger rod is fully retracted before starting.
Check the following: ensure the grease cartridge is properly loaded, clear any air locks by priming the gun, and check for blockages in the nozzle or hose.
To prevent air locks, ensure that the cartridge is correctly seated and the plunger is fully engaged. Bleed the air by pressing the release valve if available, or slightly unscrewing the barrel to release trapped air.
Regularly clean the nozzle and hose to prevent blockages, check for leaks, and ensure all moving parts are lubricated. Store the gun in a dry place to prevent rust.
Yes, the Sealey AK481 Grease Gun is compatible with most standard grease types. However, ensure that the grease used is suitable for the specific application and equipment.
If the plunger rod is not retracting, it may be due to a blockage or dried grease. Clean the plunger and apply a small amount of fresh grease to facilitate smooth movement.
Clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth. For the interior, ensure no residue is left in the barrel, and clean the nozzle and hose with a suitable solvent if needed.
Store the grease gun in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure it is clean and free from grease residue to prevent dust accumulation and oxidation.
Inspect the joints, seals, and hose connections for any grease residue. Tighten loose parts and replace damaged seals to prevent leaks.
If the handle is stiff, check for blockages in the dispensing mechanism. Clean and lubricate the pivot points, and ensure all moving parts are free from debris.
