Note: Clean, dry, filtered air is required to meet warranty. If necessary,
use five-micron filter regulator (not supplied – order #2000F755).
1. Connect ULTRASAVER (or filter regulator where required) to plant
air supply.
2. If appropriate, connect ULTRASAVER to filter regulator.
Press air hose firmly into fittings to connect.
3. Set plant air supply (or filter regulator) within 80 to 100 psi
(5.4 to 7.0 bar).
4. Plug in the foot pedal.
5. Set voltage selector switch to the proper value.
6. Connect power cord.
7. Attach the hose support to desired side of the ULTRASAVER.
8. Position barrel adapter hose in the support and connect to
the ULTRASAVER’s output.
9. Turn power switch on (rear panel).
Thin, pourable fluids
Twist on a tip cap and pour fluid in.
If appropriate, insert the SmoothFlow™ piston.
Carefully press the piston down (use a pen or pencil)
until it contacts the fluid.
Attach barrel to barrel adapter assembly.
Invert barrel, replace tip cap with selected dispense tip.
Thick or non-leveling materials
Same procedure as with thin, pourable fluids EXCEPT:
Spoon fluid into the barrel with a spatula. (If packed
in a 1/10 gallon cartridge, try loading the barrel with a
caulking gun.)
Note: Move the fluid toward the bottom of the barrel
by pressing the SmoothFlow™ piston. Squeeze barrel
sides slightly to allow trapped air to escape.
Solvents,
cyanoacrylates
or anaerobics
Same procedure as with thin,
pourable fluids EXCEPT:
Use the blue LV Barrier™.
Place barrier in the TOP of the
barrel reservoir.
Allow air between barrier and
fluid. (Do not contact the blue
barrier to the fluid.)

THIN fluid settings
1. Set air pressure
to 30 psi
2. To fill tip, set mode switch to steady
(yellow light on) and press foot pedal.
3. If dots are required, reset mode switch to green.
Set time at #3, adjust as necessary.
1. Set air pressure to 2 psi
2. Set time at #3
3. If drop forms at tip,
turn vacuum control
counter-clockwise until
drop disappears.
Note: Settings are general recommendations. For best results, test settings for your specific application.
How to make DOTS Time range adjustments – special setups
Most applications work best with ULTRASAVER’s
default time setting (shipped with 0.010 – 1.000
momentary). However, for special setups the
ULTRASAVER’s time range may be adjusted with
the rotary switch located under the plug in the
bottom panel of the cabinet.
To change the time range, rotate the switch
to the desired setting using a small screwdriver.
Replace plug.
In maintained mode, the foot pedal must remain
depressed throughout the entire dispense cycle.
Releasing the pedal during a cycle will interrupt
the cycle.
In momentary mode, the foot pedal can be
pressed and immediately released, and the cycle
will continue. If the pedal is pressed again during
a cycle, the dispenser will stop.
