IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING!
READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS BEFORE OPERATING THIS TOOL. FAILURE TO DO
SO MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.
1. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. Observe work area conditions. Do not use machines or power tools in damp or wet
locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Do not use electrically
powered tools in the presence of ammable gases or liquids. Do not bring combustible
materials near the tools.
3. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them
handle machines, tools, hoses or extension cords.
4. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit
rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Switch off all unused electrical tools when stored. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
5. Always wear approved eye protection when using tools. If raising dust, wear a suitable
mask.
6. Work Safe. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could become caught by moving
parts, causing injury. Operate tool a safe distance from yourself and others in the work
area. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across run-
ning machines, hoses, etc.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATION
NOTE: For best service you should incorporate an oiler, regu-
lator, and inline filter, as shown in the diagram above.
1. If desired, for quick tool connection, you will need to
prepare a 1/4” quick air connector (not included) to con-
nect to the air source hose. First, wrap the 1/4” quick
air connector (not included) with pipe thread seal tape
(not included) before threading it onto the 3/8” air source
hose. Then, connect the 1/4” quick air connector to the
Air Inlet (2) on the Grease Gun. Note: If you are not using
7. Do not operate any tool if under the inuence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels
on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reexes are impaired while taking
drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate any tool.
8. Be sure air is in OFF position when connecting tool to air supply.
9. Use only those accessories that are designed for use with tools. For example, with
impact wrenches do not use ordinary sockets. Use impact sockets for all air tools.
10. Be sure to disconnect tool from air supply before changing accessories, performing
service on tool and when not in use.
11. Follow air source manufacturers' directions for connection of regulators, lters, and
other accessories to air source. Do not install quick couplers directly on tool as they
put unnecessary strain on the air inlet threads possibly causing them to wear out
prematurely. Instead, install them on a short length of air hose attached to the tool.
12. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting xtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualied technician.
13. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a quali-
ed technician using original PERFORMANCE TOOLS® replacement parts. Failure
to do so can lead to accidents for the operator. Use of any other parts will void the
warranty. Only use accessories intended for use with this tool. Approved accessories
are available from Performance Tool®. Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may
become hazardous when used on another tool.
WARNING: This product and its packaging contain a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
WARNING: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the operator. Read and understand all of the instructions
provided in the instruction manual of this product, as well as, any other tool (s) used with
this product.

OPERATION
OPERATING THE GREASE GUN
Note: If your application requires the Flexible Hose (11), attach it to the
Bent Spout (7).
WARNING: Before every use, prime the Grease Gun by operating the
Gun (see below) until grease ows from the tip. If it does not prime
properly, follow the directions above for venting trapped air.
1. Attach the Grease Gun to the air source hose following the directions
on page four. Set the air compressor to 30 - 90 PSI.
2. Squeeze the Trigger (3) to begin the ow of grease.
3. Pulse the Trigger (3) to continue the ow of Grease, release to stop
the ow of grease.
4. Disconnect from the air source hose before relling the Grease Gun.
Turn off the air compressor.
WARNING: The Grease Gun may still have air pressure after discon-
nected from the air source. Point the Grease Gun into a suitable recep-
tacle and re it until all of the air is expended.
GREASE LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
Grease can be loaded into the Grease Gun by: loading with a ller
pump, using suction lling, or loading with a cartridge.
WARNING:
Disconnect the Grease Gun from the air supply before lling.
Loading A Grease Cartridge
1. Remove the Container Tube (8) from the top of the Housing Cap (6).
2. Pull back on the Plunger Handle (10) until it is fully extended. Lock it
into place with the Catch Plate (12).
an automatic oiler system, before operation, add a few
drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline connection. Add
a few drops more after each hour of continual use.
2. To check your air system, set the air pressure on your
compressor to 90 PSI. Do not exceed the testing air pres-
sure of 90 PSI.
3. Check the air connection for leaks. After test is complete,
disconnect from the air supply until grease is loaded into
the Air Grease Gun.

OPERATION OPERATION OPERATION
Clean air of correct air pressure is recommended for the power supply
for this tool. A maximum of 90 PSI at the tool is recommended for most
air tools of this class. Check specications section for recommended
pressure. (Depending on length of air hose and other circumstances, air
pressure at compressor may need to be increased to 100 PSI to ensure
90 PSI at the tool.)
Water in the air hose and compressor tank contributes to reduced per-
formance and damage of the air tool. Drain the air tank and lters before
each use and as necessary to keep the air supply dry.
Hose length over 25’ causes loss in line pressure. Increase hose I.D. or
increase compressor pressure to compensate for the pressure loss. Use
an in-line pressure regulator with gauge if air inlet pressure is critical.

4. Disconnect the Grease Gun from the
Filler Pump (not included).
5. Press the Catch Plate (12) and re-
lease the Plunger Handle (10). Press
the Plunger Handle (10) in as far as

Warning!
Oil tool before each use. 4 to 5 drops of a good grade
Air Tool Oil placed in the air inlet is sufficient. Use prop-
er air pressure and CFM rating listed for this tool.
Drain water from hoses and compressor tank. Water in the air supply
line will cause gumming and loss of power. Clean the air lter on the
supply line and ush the tool with gum solvent or a 50/50 mix of air tool
oil and kerosene. It may be necessary to disassemble the tool to prop-
erly clean and re-lubricate.
After each use, clean leftover grease from the Tube (18). Make sure the
Nozzle (10) and the tip of the Grease Gun are clear of dirt, grease, or any
debris. Wipe down the unit with a lint free cloth.
