7. Attach a new mixing tip.
8. Grease the manifold.

Storage
To store the equipment:

1. Turn off the flow from the adhesive cart.
2. Close the fluid valves A and B.
3. Open the main operation valve to relieve line pressure.
4. Turn off the air compressor.
5. Remove the mixing tip.
6. Remove all hoses and connections.
7. Unscrew the main operation valve handle and remove the main valve body.
8. Clean and lubricate the manifold fluid channels and valve body.
9. Replace the main valve body and main operation valve handle.
