1. Connect a material reservoir (cartridge, supply line, tank) of material to the pump adapter/
feed reservoir (Item 32). For thread details, refer to
Threads & Materials
(pg 31).
2. Connect air (0.14-0.2 bar [2-3 psi]) to the material reservoir.
3. For applicable models, verify the purge tube support (Item 31) is secured in the tube sup-
port and then remove the cap. For all other models, remove the bleed port plug (Item F).
4. Orient the dispense pump so the needle/nozzle end points downward.
5. Increase air pressure on the material reservoir until material feeds into the purge tube (or
out of the bleed port. Using a cup or wipe to catch expelled material, allow a small amount
of material to bleed from the purge tube to ensure all air is displaced.
6. For applicable models, screw the cap onto the purge tube. For all other models, screw the
bleed port plug (Item F) into the bleed port.
