Priming of Putty Chop Check Pump:
1.
Fill solvent cups with throat seal liquid (see figure 12)
Fig. 12
2.
Move the ram up/down valve handle to the up position (see figure 13).
Fig. 13
NOTE:
Do not install static mixer tube to gun at this time.
3.
To raise the Pump Ram, slowly increase air pressure on the regulator (marked air lift) to 15 to 20
psi (see figure 13).
4.
While the barrel piston is going up, check that hoses are moving freely and no hoses are kinking.
5.
Slide 5-gallon (20 liter) pail of material onto the unit against the pail stop and position to the barrel piston.
6.
Install the Plastic Boot to the follower plate and seals to protect the seals and help keep the follower
plate clean. Center the plastic boot on follower plate and seals and secure as desired. Be sure to
leave the air bleed ball valve exposed for easy access and operation. (see fig. 14a)
7.
Open the air bleed ball valve located at the top of the barrel piston; this will allow air trapped
between the barrel piston and the material to escape. (see fig. 14)
