Air Pressure
Air pressure is used to move the material from the syringe to the feedscrew. The greater the pressure, the
faster the material reaches the feedscrew. However, excessive air pressure can be detrimental to the
dispensing process. Refer to the
Specifications section for recommended air pressure settings.

Refer to the Fluidmove User Guide or Online Help for detailed explanations of line and dot parameters.
Assembling a Dispensing Cartridge
CAUTION! Only trained service technicians should perform this procedure.
Tools and Materials Needed
• 1/4-inch Wrench • Dispensing Needle (application specific)
• Cartridge Kit • Seal Insertion Tool Set (P/N 197004)
1. Verify that all parts of the cartridge are clean. If not, clean in accordance with “
Cleaning the
Pump” in the
Maintenance and Service section.
2. Install the seal into the cartridge body as follows (see
Figure 4-1):
"NOTE If the cartridge does not have a seal, skip to Step 3.
a. Place the seal, spring side up, onto the seal insertion tool.
b. Place the seal guide onto the cartridge body.
c. Press the seal into the cartridge body through the seal guide.
d. Remove the seal insertion tool and then the seal guide.
! The seal should remain inside the cartridge body.
3. Gently press the lower bearing down on top of the cartridge body (
Figure 4-2).
! This will seat the seal (if present) to the proper depth in the cartridge.
4. Insert the feedscrew/thrust collar assembly into the top of the cartridge body until the thrust collar
sits flush on top of the lower bearing.
5. Install a needle of the appropriate size into the needle retainer and thread the retainer into the
end of the cartridge body.
! Do not over-tighten the needle retainer. Finger-tight is sufficient.
6. Using a 1/4-inch wrench, install the cartridge fitting into the cartridge body.
! Do not over-tighten the fitting or the plastic threads may strip.
