How to use the SYSTEM REINER two-handed
CASSIDA HD GREASE GUN
*) Minimum permissible bending radius: 100 mm; permissible dynamic operating pressure: 400 bar
General instructions for use
•Before starting lubrication:
Ensure that the grease nipple and the grip coupling are clean.
•During lubrication:
The grip coupling/armoured pipe must sit upright on the nipple.
If you hold the grip coupling at an angle, the nipple is not fully
covered. Keep checking the amount of lubricant being extruded.
•After lubrication:
Do not pull the mouthpiece/grip coupling off the nipple, but bend it
sideways. Nipples which do not work properly must be replaced as
soon as possible.
Important safety information
Our SYSTEM REINER CASSIDA HD GREASE GUN carries the GS label,
which means it has been checked for safety.
It is designed to operate at pressures of 400 bar, in accordance with
DIN 1283, and has a large built-in safety margin. The design of the
grease gun means it requires less operating force than conventional
grease guns.
Twist the screw top
off the cartridge.
Depending on how the cartridge was
filled, a small quantity of air may be
trapped in the area of the screw thread.
Gently press the centre of the piston to
push out this air in order to ensure that
the lubricant reaches the pump unit
immediately.
Attach the armoured pipe* to the
press head. This grease gun allows a
maximum pressure of 400 bar.
WARNING! Check the lubricating
channels, grease nipples and the points
of lubrication before you start operating
the press with both hands.
Screw in the cartridge up to the stop
line. Operate the press until lubricant
appears at the end of the armoured pipe
(3-5 strokes).
Now the press is ready to use. The pump
unit is refilled by vacuum after each
stroke.
At each stroke, you should open the
press smoothly and keep it open for as
long as it takes, to fill the pump unit
again. Depending on the temperature
and type of lubricant used, it may take
up to three seconds for the piston
chamber to be filled completely.
When you start to feel resistance
closing the hand lever, this indicates
the chamber contains the right amount
of lubricant.
You can check the level of lubricant in
the cartridge at any time (see diagram).
The special piston shape ensures
that the cartridge is being completely
emptied.
