Safety
2 Read and carefully observe these instruc-
2 tions before loading, operating or trouble-
3 shooting. The grease gun must be main-
3 tained and repaired exclusively by persons
3 familiar with these instructions.
4 Use gun only after safety instructions in
7 this guide have been read and are com-
pletely understood.
Adequate personal protection must be
used to prevent splashing of material on the
skin or in the eyes.
This equipment generates very high
grease pressure. Extreme caution should be
used when operating this equipment as
material leaks from loose or ruptured com-
ponents can inject fluid through the skin and
into the body. If any fluid appears to pene-
trate the skin, seek attention from a doctor
immediately.
Do not treat injury as a simple cut. Tell
attending doctor exactly what type of fluid
was injected.
Any other use not in accordance with
instructions will result in loss of claim for
warranty or liability.
Do not misuse, over-pressurize, modify
parts, use incompatible chemicals, fluids, or
use worn and/or damaged parts.
Always read and follow the fluid manufac-
turer's recommendations regarding fluid
compatibility, and use of protective clothing
and equipment.
Failure to comply may result in death or
serious injury.
