INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

Setup Procedure (Refer to Figure 2)

1. Ensure the pressure regulator is off (set at zero). Pull the locked air regulator knob out to unlock and turn counterclockwise several rotations to set to zero psi
2. Turn four locking knobs counterclockwise to remove cover (Lid). Unscrew each locking knob until it can flip over its hinge to clear the cover plate
3. Remove the Cover (Lid) of the 1254 Pressure Pot and carefully set it aside
4. Remove the cap from the material (dispense fluid) container. The cap may be saved for future resealing of the container
5. Place material container inside pressure pot chamber
6. Ensure that the O’Ring stays in the groove of the cover
7. 7. Install the Cover (Lid) on the Pressure Pot, making sure to place the tube end into the material container
   8. Align the four slots on the cover with the four locking knobs
   9. Lift the locking knobs into slots on the cover and tighten the knobs uniformly until snug. (Hand Tight Only)
   WARNING: Never pour adhesives or other material directly into the pressure pot. To do so may cause severe damage to the pressure pot. Use a material container or similar containment vessel.

Start-Up Procedure

1. Pull the pressure regulator knob and turn it clockwise to increase air pressure to the desired operating pressure. Ensure that the pressure gauge reading does not exceed 70 psi maximum. Then push the regulator knob in to lock and maintain the set gage pressure
   NOTE: Always start at the lowest pressure and gradually increase as needed.

2. Listen for any possible air pressure leakage on the Pressure Pot

3. Look for any signs of material/fluid leakage on the tubing Pressure Pot Setup is now complete and ready for dispensing operation with the selected valve system.

WARNING:
Whenever replacing or removing valve (s) ensure that the regulator is at zero. Do not open the lid until the air pressure is at zero

Remove old Tubing

1. Pull the air pressure regulator knob, turn it counterclockwise and lower the air pressure to zero

2. Open the Exhaust Valve by turning the lever up (figure 4) to ensure the chamber is completely depressurized.

3. Disconnect the air supply line if necessary

4. Disconnect fluid tubing from the dispense valve
   Note: Hold the fluid tubing in the vertical position to allow the fluid inside the tubing to flow back inside the bottle/container.

5. Loosen the four locking knobs slowly and evenly. If excessive effort is required, ensure the air pressure gauge reading is zero

6. Unscrew the tube male connector nut completely. Move the nut and ferrule along the tubing about 4 inches away from the connector body on the cover

7. Cut off tubing in between the connector body on the lid and nut/ferrule. Put the cut tubing with nut/ferrule aside. Take care to accommodate drainage and spillage at the end of the tubing

8. Wipe off any excess fluid material from the cut-ends of the tubing’s

9. Remove nut and ferrule parts from the used tube

10. Remove the cover from the Pressure Pot, while carefully pulling used tubing half from the container, and set aside. Be careful to avoid splashing and spilling from the tube end in the material container/bottle

11. Using a disposable hand glove or tongs, carefully pull the used-up tube from the connector body on the Lid. Pull tubing from the inner side of the cover plate. Dispose of used tubing appropriately

12. Screw the nut on the connector body. Ferrule parts may be replaced

13. Disconnect the fitting on the dispensing end of the tubing, and discard the used tube
