If your Foampro dispenser is not connected to the hose assembly: Attach the red “A” hose to the Hose Connection Fitting (D507) on the left side of the dispenser, just behind the red valve. (See diagram 3A) Attach the blue “B” hose to the Hose Connection Fitting (D507) on the right side of the dispenser, just behind the blue valve. (See diagram 3A) 1.

INSTALLATION 1.2 Connecting the blue "B" hose to the "B" chemical cylinder: To connect the blue "B" hose to the "B" chemical cylinder: After checking to be sure that all valves on the cylinder are closed, remove the plug from the outlet of the chemical valve (See diagram 5A). Keep the plug handy so that it can be refitted to the cylinder after the cylinder is empty. Remove the cap from the filter end of the blue "B" hose.

STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.0 Make sure all installation steps have been completed prior to startup and calibration. Make sure that the chemicals are at the correct operating temperature, usually 70° to 90° F. 2.1 Startup: 1 | Be sure that all valves are closed. (See diagrams for valve locations) This would include: The valve on top of the nitrogen cylinder. The nitrogen valve on top of both chemical cylinders ("A" Chemical and "B" Chemical).

STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.1 2 | Turn on the air supply to the dispenser, and check for leaks. 3 | Remove Mix Cartridge Plug (D620) if one is in place.. Do not install nozzle until calibration steps are completed. 4 | Open both of the air injection valves (D704, D705) (See diagram 9A) to see if the air passes freely through the dispenser. Re-close both of the air injection valves, as they must be closed to complete the calibration of the dispenser.

STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 Calibration of A:B ratio: Proper mixing of the “A” and “B” component chemicals in the correct proportions is important in producing foam. Foams produced with an improper proportion of “A” to “B” chemical can in some cases affect foam properties. When and how often should the A:B ratio be checked? •At the beginning of the workday. •When a new cylinder of “A” or “B” component is installed. •When a new cylinder of nitrogen is installed. •About halfway through the normal workday.
STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 Diagram 13A Diagram 13B ©2001 R11.
STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 6 | Close the "A" chemical (red) valve on the F1000 dispenser, leaving the "B" chemical (blue) valve open. (See diagram 15A) 7 | Place a 32 oz. paper cup on a scale, and tare the scale to read zero. 8 | Using a stop watch, or optional timer, trigger the F1000 dispenser for exactly 3 seconds, directing the flow of the "B" chemical into the paper cup on the scale. Record the weight of "B" chemical dispensed. 9 | Purge the mix cartridge once again as outlined in step 5 above.
STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 Diagram 15A ©2001 R11.
STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 1 - Close nitrogen valve on the chemical cylinder. (See diagrams 16A & 16B) 2 - Using the nitrogen pressure adjustment valve for the chemical cylinder being adjusted, turn the adjustment valve counterclockwise two full turns. (See diagram 17A) 3 - Locate the pressure relief valve on the chemical cylinder being adjusted. (See diagrams 16A & 16B) 4 - Pull upward on the ring of the pressure relief valve for 2 or 3 seconds, then release the ring to allow the valve to close.
STARTUP | CALIBRATION 2.2 of air flowing through the system. Different uses of the F1000, for example spraying foam, may require a higher flow of air than pouring foam. Experience in using the F1000 will help the user determine what air flow level suits their needs. Once the proper amount of airflow through the Air Injection System has been achieved, the F1000 dispenser is ready for use. Foam product can be dispensed by depressing the trigger.
