Please turn on closed caption for additional info!

In this video, I'm going to demonstrate the how to regrease / lubricate the M200's Piston Filler. This method should generally applicable to other piston filler pen, even outside of pelikan brand.

For a piston filler pen such as a Pelikan M200, the piston unit will slow become sticky / difficult to travel along the barrel. After numerous refills, cleaning, and eter, especially cleaning with soapy water or scrapping the barrel with cotton bug, the lubricant which is keeping the piston travel smoothly will slowly being washed off. Therefore, regreasing is an important step to keep the piston filler operates smoothly for long term.
