REFILLING THE BOTTLES
Lay the bottles down and remove the
rubber bung from the colour you wish to
refill.
Use the syringe and nozzle attachment
to fill the colour.
You cannot fill the reservoir further than
the hole allows.
Do not stand the system up so you can
fill the smaller chamber, this system
works on the principle that the smaller
chamber is partially empty.
Return the bottles to an upright position
and replace the rubber seal ensuring the
centre bungs are removed.
