•
If an air-operated grease gun does

operated grease gun. If the part does
not purge, remove fitting and clean,
install fitting and grease again. If part

component.
•
When using a grease gun, apply
lubricant to the fitting until clean
lubricant squeezes out of the part
being lubricated.
•
If suspension pin does not accept
grease, relieve load on suspension

grease, notify supervisor to remove

replace if necessary.
