The grease guns I'm familiar with don't get "filled". The cartridge is just inserted into the gun; if it's not intuitively obvious to you how to do this you probably don't have the mechanical aptitude to be using a grease gun anyway.

How Refill grease gun?
For the old manual hand-pump styles...Open the handle and put your foot in the crotch and hold it to the floor. This will give you leverage to turn the cartridge chamber.At one end there should be a plunger handle that you can grab with two fingers. Notice the hole that the handle goes into. It has a notch. What you need to do is pull the plunger handle as far out as you can and if you succeeded you should be able to cock that plunger handle to the side and it will set in that notch which will alow us to put in a new tube of grease.Now, whle you're still holding the grease gun in your feet, unscrew the cartridge chamber from the oposite end of the plunger handle. Lefty-Loosey and so forth. These can be tough to get apart, but you should be able to do it with your bare hands and maybe a few grease rags.If you got the cartridge chamber off, stick your finger in the open end and grab the lip of the old cartridge. It should slide out easy, but some require a pair of pliers.Take your new tube of grease and pull off the plastic cap at one end. Now, insert it into the cartridge chamber just like the old one was. You should now be looking at a pull tab. Pull it off and reassemble the grease gun.If the cartridge chamber is tight then simply pump the grease gun until you get grease. It may require several pumps.Hope this helps you out. Good Luck and Good Day!
