Loading Grease
To ensure optimal performance from the G1:
• Only use NLGI #000 - #2 greases appropriate for
your application, automatic dispensing, and the
equipment’s operating temperature. Consult with
machine and lube manufacturer for details.
• The reservoir can be filled using a hand operated
pump, pneumatic pump or electric transfer pump.
• Do not overfill (F
IG. 8).
• Do not operate G1 without reservoir attached.
Models without a follower plate:
1. Connect fill hose to inlet fitting (37) (FIG. 7).
2. For higher viscosity fluids, press the
manual run button to start the pump
during fill to rotate the stirring paddle
and prevent air pockets from forming in
grease.
3. Fill reservoir with NLGI grease to max fill line.
NOTE: Vent port, located in rear of reservoir, should not
be used as an overfill port/indicator.
4. Remove fill hose.
Models with a follower plate:
1. Connect fill hose to inlet fitting (FIG. 7).
2. For higher viscosity fluids, press the
manual run button to start the pump
during fill to rotate the stirring paddle
and prevent air pockets from forming in
grease.
3. Fill reservoir with grease until seal of follower plate
breaches the vent hole (F
IG. 9) and the majority of
air is expelled from the reservoir.
NOTE: Vent port, located in rear of reservoir, should not
be used as an overfill port/indicator.
4. Remove fill hose.
NOTICE
• Always clean fitting (37) with a clean dry cloth
prior to filling reservoir. Dirt and/or debris can
damage pump and/or lubrication system.
• Care must be used when filling the reservoir
using a pneumatic or electric transfer pump to
not pressurize and break the reservoir.
