WARNING: The dispenser is equipped with an automatic timer that will activate when plugged in. To avoid
accidental breakage or personal injury, ensure all assembly procedures have been completed prior to
plugging in.
Pump Priming
With the unit assembled and canisters mounted, the following steps should be carried out to ensure that
your machine is properly prepared for accurate and trouble-free dispensing. It is recommended that only
one quart of colorant be used for the initial filling and priming. Additional colorant can be added once
proper operation is achieved.
1. Place each can of colorant into a mixer or shaker for approximately five minutes (or as specified by
the colorant manufacturer) to mix any settled pigment.
2. Remove canister lids.
3. Pour the contents of each can of colorant into individual canisters.
NOTE: Apply the canister identification letters to each canister as the colorant is added. Applying the letter
to the stainless steel cylinder is the simplest reference.
4. Set the gauge of each pump to the maximum setting by depressing the spring loaded adjustment
button and lifting the gauge by its handle.
5. Prime each cylinder by lifting the plunger handle to its maximum travel and then pressing it
downwards fully. Do not open the valve during this process.
6. Repeat this plunger stroking process 5 - 6 times to ensure that the pump is completely filled with
colorant and air is worked out of the system.
7. Place a clean can or container under the dispense nozzle.
8. Raise the plunger to its maximum travel.
9. Open the valve by pulling the handle down until it stops.
10. Push the plunger handle down fully to dispense colorant into the cup.
11. Close the valve.
12. Repeat this procedure until the colorant dispenses as a solid stream with no air bubbles.
13. Repeat above procedure for remaining pumps.
14. Return colorants to their respective canisters.
15. Your machine is now ready for use.
Note: Do not add colorant to the canisters while agitation is ongoing.
Timer
Every HERO D series dispenser is equipped with an automatic timer for colorant agitation. The timer
operates for every 10 min every 7 hours at 110V 60Hz or 4 hours at 220V 50Hz. The timer requires no
adjustment or attention on the part of the operator. When shipped, the timer has been set to initiate
agitation as soon as the dispenser is plugged in.
