To load grease, unscrew the grease cartridge holder, insert a new cartridge with the open end facing the plunger, and screw it back. Make sure to prime the gun by pumping until grease flows smoothly.
Check for air pockets by bleeding the gun. Loosen the air bleed valve and pump the handle to expel trapped air. Tighten the valve once a steady stream of grease is observed.
Clean the grease gun after each use to prevent contamination. Wipe down exterior surfaces and ensure the nozzle is free of residual grease.
Yes, the Sealey AK49 is compatible with various grease types. However, ensure compatibility with the machinery being serviced and avoid mixing different grease types.
Regularly inspect for wear and tear, lubricate moving parts, and replace any damaged components to ensure optimal performance.
Leaks can occur due to worn seals or a damaged cartridge. Inspect and replace seals if necessary and ensure the cartridge is properly seated.
Store the grease gun in a cool, dry place, with the plunger retracted to maintain spring tension and prevent grease leakage.
Ensure a firm connection to the fitting, pump steadily, and avoid excessive force to prevent damage to the gun or fittings.
Check for blockages in the nozzle or hose. Clear any obstructions and ensure the grease is not too cold and viscous for pumping.
The handle will feel lighter and less resistance will be felt when pumping. Also, visually inspect the cartridge if possible.
