A grease gun is useful in lubricating items in garages or workshops. Grease guns function like nail guns only that the latter is useful for driving nails instead of grease. The manual gun comes in two types, those that need a trigger to operate and those that don't need a trigger to operate. Some use air power to administer the grease. For a grease gun to function, you need to load it with grease or a lubricant.

Although loading a grease gun is a simple affair, most people struggle a lot. The advantage of using grease over oil is that it doesn't leak easily.Consequently, refilling a grease gun is not similar to refilling machines that use oil as a lubricant.

If you are operating a grease gun, it's essential to know how to load it properly for reliability and efficiency.Proper loading helps in averting the problem of under or over greasing, which may affect the lifespan of your grease gun. Below here, we'll share the procedure of loading a grease gun. Keep reading.

Why does Hand grease gun loses its prime?

Grease is too thick to get all the air bubbles out during manufacture and packaging. The grease gun pump is designed to move thick liquid (grease). When a large air bubble gets into the grease gun's piston cylinder, your grease gun is now one of the world's smallest and most inefficient air pump. The remedy for this problem is the little button on the front cap of the grease gun next to the handle pivot or piston. It takes much more air pressure than the grease gun's piston and cylinder can create to move any grease with this small air bubble. Just imagine squeezing a car tire to the size of a doughnut with out popping it. Relieve the pressure of this air bubble and now you can vacuum in some grease behind it with the grease gun's piston and cylinder repriming the grease gun. Long answer short: airbubble.
