SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may
result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
• DANGER: Because of the high working pressures developed by this gun, the possibility of grease injection into the flesh, or an eye, is
a potential hazard. Never allow any part of the human body to come in front of, or in direct contact with a grease discharge outlet or
potential hose rupture. Never point the nozzle of the gun at yourself or toward anyone else. If accidental grease injection should occur,
seek Immediate Emergency Medical Attention. DO NOT try to treat the injury yourself! If injection occurs, provide grease product
information to medical personnel. Be certain that any and all system components will withstand the pressures being developed. Never
exceed the pressure rating of any component in the system. Inspect all hoses and fittings before each use. Weak, worn, or damaged
hoses are a hazard.
• WARNING: Before each use, inspect hoses for signs of wear, leaks, or loose fittings. Inspect and tighten all fluid connections regularly
and replace weak or damaged hose. Do not use any defective, unmarked, or damaged hoses. Do not repair the grease whip hose.
Replace if damaged. Most injections occur because of component rupture. Any cuts or sharp bends in hose can rupture and cause
personal injury. Use only components that will withstand the pressures being developed.
• WARNING: Do not adjust pressure relief valve.
• WARNING: Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. The grease gun can develop high pressure – up to 7000 psi (483 bar). Use
safety glasses and gloves for protection during operation. Grease leaks under pressure can penetrate the eyes and skin. Keep grease
products away from eyes. Consult grease product labeling for safety precautions.
• CAUTION: Keep hands and fingers clear of the exposed rubber or plastic portion of hose. Extreme pressure may cause nozzle
extension or hose to burst.
• CAUTION: Wipe up any dripped or spilled grease residue and keep work area clean. Grease on floor surfaces can be slippery and
cause loss of footing and possible injury.
THE BATTERY PACK IS NOT FULLY CHARGED OUT OF THE CARTON. READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE SAFETY
Important Safety Instructions for Battery Pack:
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. If this leakage gets on
your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek immediate medical
attention. Medical note: The battery cells are rechargeable lithium-ion type.
• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the
battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
• Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire. DO NOT
substitute or modify another battery to use with your grease gun. When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to indicate the
specific part number for your tool.
• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal
objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or
a fire.
• Charge battery pack with charger made for this specific tool model.
• Do not splash battery pack or charger with water or other liquids. Do not use or attempt to charge any battery pack that has become
wet or that has had water splashed or dripped on to it.
• Do not store or use the tool and / or battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach 105˚ F (such as outside sheds or
metal buildings in summer).
• DANGER: Electrocution hazard! Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged,
do not insert into charger. Electric shock or electrocution may result. Damaged battery packs should be taken to a battery service
center for recycling.
• WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery packs so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. Do not place
battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., along with other metal objects. Battery pack terminals
could be short-circuited possibly causing severe burns or fire, as well as causing damage to the battery pack.
• WARNING: Do not transport batteries unless exposed battery contacts are protected and insulated from materials that could contact
them and cause a short circuit.
• CAUTION: Battery pack must be securely attached to tool. If battery pack is not attached securely, personal injury may result.
• IMPORTANT: Dispose of expended or damaged battery packs properly by returning to a local battery service dealer or contact your
local recycling agencies for proper disposal information. Under various state and local laws it may be illegal to dispose of this battery
into the municipal waste stream.
