GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
This service instruction sheet contains important warnings and other information. PLEASE READ & KEEP FOR REFERENCE.
1. The information in this manual has been carefully checked and is believed to be entirely reliable and consistent with the product described.
However, no responsibility is assumed for inaccuracies, or for liability arising out of the application and use of the equipment described.
2. Should the equipment be used in a manner not specified, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired and the warranty voided.
3. Always wear safety glasses when using a grease gun. Keep work area clean & remove excess grease from tools, hands & clothing after use.
Do not use grease gun hose for other applications or at pressure levels above rated pressures.
Caution: Excess grease, if left on floors, tools or equipment can, create surfaces that become slippery and potentially dangerous.
4. Extreme pressure may cause whip hose to burst. Use only KINCROME APPROVED hoses and follow the hose instructions and warnings.
5. This grease gun generates high grease pressure. Extreme caution should be used when operating the gun as material leaks from loose and ruptured components, can inject fluid through
the skin and into the body causing serious bodily injury. Adequate protection is recommended to prevent splashing of material onto the skin or into the eyes, such as approved safety eye
wear and gloves.

ASSEMBLY
The K13225 Air Operated Continuous Shot Grease Gun requires the extension hose or extension pipe to be assembled prior to use. Choose ether the rigid or flexible extension hose.
Connect the desired Extension hose and Coupler onto the Grease Gun Outlet of the Grease Gun Head using a thread sealant such as Teflon tape or copper gasket (not included), to make a leak-
proof connection.
(DO NOT over tighten as this may fracture the Grease Gun Outlet which could result in an air leak).
1. Screw the Nitto Style Fitting in to the air inlet of the grease gun. Thread (teflon) tape may be required to ensure a leak free seal.
2. Connect the air hose to the air inlet of the tool, located on the handle.
OPERATION
Priming Grease Guns
It is highly recommended to prime your grease gun, before it is used, if grease stops coming out, the most probable cause is trapped air in grease.
If your grease gun is regularly used, Priming can be done without having to remove the Grease Gun Extension & Coupler from the Grease Gun Head.
1. Withdraw the follower rod from the grease tube assembly cap and engage it with the follower by rotating the follower handle . Exert force on the follower
handle after opening the vent/filler fitting.
2. Pull the trigger in short bursts to operate gun until trapped air is expelled. Disengage the follower rod from the follower by rotation the follower handle.
Push the follower rod into the grease tube assembly.
3. If step 2 fails, unscrew the grease tube assembly1-1/2 turns from the pump assembly.
4. Exert force on the follower handle until lubricant oozes from the grease tube assembly and pump assembly interface.
5. Tighten grease tube assembly into the pump assembly. Disengage the follower rod from the follower by rotation of the follower handle. Push the follower rod into
the grease tube assembly.
FITTING THE 4 JAW COUPLER TO A GREASE NIPPLE
The grease coupler provided at the end of the grease gun extension has a 4 jaw type construction.
The coupler jaws will snap on to a grease fitting and maintain a tight fit. When connecting the coupler to the grease fitting, press the coupler straight onto the grease
fitting to form a snug fit (Fig 1). Start operating the grease gun with the coupler as square to the grease fitting as possible.
Once greasing is completed, slightly tilt the coupler, twist and pull back (fig 2). The tilt and twist action will allow easy removal of the coupler from the grease fitting.
QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS
1. Attach the high pressure grease hose and coupler, to outlet in the head. Teflon tape or copper gasket must be used to seal hose thread to head. Tighten securely.
2. Attach the air hose to the Nitto style air fitting, located on the bottom of the handle.
3. Fill grease container (See appropriate section of manual for various options).
4. Prime grease gun by operating slowly until grease flows from coupler. See Operation section for detailed priming procedure.
5. Adjust air pressure to grease gun (do not exceed 100PSI) and the gun is now ready for use.
6. Disconnect air supply to grease gun when not in use

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Cause Remedy
Grease gun pumps little to no grease a. Air pockets in grease
b. Dense or Frozen Grease
c. Grease Gun Extension Blocked
d. Grease Gun Head Blocked
a. Prime Grease Gun (refer to steps 5-7 of grease gun loading)
b. Use a lower viscosity Grease / add some oil to grease to make it more
viscous / heat the Grease Gun Barrel to lower unfreeze the grease
c. Remove Extension Hose. If Grease gun pumps grease without the extension, then
the problem is with the extension, which should be cleaned / replaced
d. Dis-assemble the Grease Gun Head to check for any contaminants blocking the
passage of grease. Clean & Re-assemble the Grease Gun Head
Grease leaks from the connection between the Grease
Gun Head or the Extension hose or the Coupler
a. Loose Connection a. Inspect and tighten the connection using Teflon tape or another form of Thread
Sealant.
Grease leaks from the Coupler body joint or from in-be-
tween the Coupler Jaws & Grease Nipple
a. Damaged Grease Coupler a. Replace the Coupler
GREASE GUN LOADING
Caution must be observed when either unscrewing the barrel or unscrewing the pull handle from the follower rod as the large
follower spring inside the barrel is energised.
