Introduction, Conditions of Sale & Warranty
A - Introduction
By selecting a Fast & Fluid Management Color Dispenser you have opted for a product which is the result of
intensive research. Top-quality components, craftsmanship and a modern ergonomic design all serve to
guarantee a long service life and a high degree of user friendliness.
Blendorama Colorant Dispensers have been designed for long life and will withstand the normal wear expected
during use in plant or in store. However, each is a precision machined metering device and should be treated
accordingly
The basic unit of your dispensing system is represented as “Y” (except for metric and hybrid systems), and the
volume of this unit (approx. one fluid ounce) has been determined by the paint manufacturer.
The “Y” unit is further divided into (usually) 32, 48 or 64 sub-units. The basic unit of the metric dispenser is one
milliliter.
With the exception of Models 22/23XC, all feature a small bore inner pump to dispense small amounts of
colorant very accurately. The 1/64, 1/48 or milliliter units are divided further for this inner pump.

C - Ensuring the machine will automatically stir the colorant.
The machine has a mechanical timer that will stir the colorant when turned
from the 0 minutes indication on the dial and continue stirring until the
timer expires. It is very important that the colorant is stirred to ensure
continuous smooth operation of the machine. If left unstirred for extended
periods, colorant can become thick and difficult to stir. This can
ultimately damage the machine. To ensure that the machine stirs the
colorants, please note the following.
LOCKED
UNLOCKED
(1) The machine will only start the stirring process
when you turn the timer clockwise to the
desired stirring period. The machine will stop
stirring when the timer expires.
The knob on the left is used to lock or unlock
the turntable.
>
(2) The power switch at the back of the machine
must be ON for the stirring process to start
when the timer is activated. (Canister refilling for
example).

B - Pump Calibration
Models 22 CW
Recalibration of the pump is necessary if the original gauge has been replaced by another (for any reason) or if
the gauge scale detail (metalcal) is to be replaced. When recalibrating the pump, please leave the
pump/canister fixed in place on the machine.
Tools required:
• 1 x Allen (hex) key 3/32” A/F (originally supplied with the machine)
(1) To calibrate the outer plunger, remove the
inner (red) gauge and inner (red) plunger and set
the outer (black) gauge to the zero position.

(3) Carefully wind one grubscrew down until only
slight movement is felt between the outer pump
handle and the gauge knob. Then wind the other
grubscrew down until no free movement can be
felt, being careful not to over-adjust.
