a.Thread new nozzle (33) onto extension (20).

b.With an open-end adjustable wrench on flats of nozzle bushing, tighten firmly.

Only tighten nozzle with wrench on flats of the nozzle bushing.

Do not disassemble the bushing from nozzle. Disassembly will affect performance of the nozzle.

2.Open automatic twist lock nozzle and all fluid shut-off valves. Start pump to pressurize system. See Operation Screens, Dispensing in either the Manual or Preset Mode instructions beginning on page 21 for complete meter operation information.

3.To ensure dispensing accuracy, purge all air from the fluid lines and dispense valve before you use it.

4.Set the system flow to the desired flow rate.

NOTICE

Do not trigger meter when nozzle is closed. Fluid will build up behind the nozzle, leak from the nozzle, and unexpectedly be expelled when the nozzle is opened. If you do accidentally trigger the meter with the nozzle closed, point the nozzle into a waste bucket and open the nozzle to relieve pressure and expel the built up fluid.
