Depends on your gun. My cartridge type has a bleed screw at the top and
it has a T-handle and rod. If the grease is really cold or heavy I open
up the bleeder. If the grease is warm, the t-handle will turn and push
all the way in and pull back out easy making a channel for the air to
come to the back of the tube and grease fills it in. Several
repetitions are needed sometimes. I seldom have to use the bleeder
screw, too messy anyway.
