Loading the Cartridge into the Caulk Gun

What happens here

To load the prepared caulk cartridge into the caulk gun, begin by pulling the plunger rod all the way back. This is typically done by depressing a release lever or rotating the handle at the back of the gun, depending on the model. Once the rod is retracted, insert the caulk cartridge, with the cut nozzle tip facing the front, into the barrel of the caulk gun. Push the plunger rod forward until it makes firm contact with the piston at the back of the caulk cartridge, securing it tightly within the gun. Release the trigger mechanism to ensure the cartridge is properly engaged and ready for use.
