The Te Pari Revolution Dosing Gun
Congratulations on your purchase of the new Te Pari Revolution Dosing Gun. This
digital, self-powered dosing gun allows you to deliver fully-calibrated dosages with
both accuracy and speed.
Difference between the G10 and G20 models
There are two Te Pari Revolution Dosing Gun models – the G10 standard model and the G20 smart model. Both the G10 and the G20 allow
for dosages to be set manually using the digital keypad. The G20 can also connect to the Te Pari Scale System via Wi-Fi to automatically
calculate and set the dose rate based on the weight of the animal. A G10 model can be upgraded to the G20 model at any time.
Items and features only available with the G20 will be specified throughout this manual.

Charging the batteries
The Te Pari Revolution Dosing Gun is supplied with an intelligent charger that can recharge both 18650
lithium-ion batteries at once.
ʵRemove the battery clip from the base of the gun handle by squeezing in both sides of the clip and gently pulling the clip out.
ʵFit each of the batteries into the charger by pulling down the spring loaded retainer, slotting the battery in, and then releasing the
retainer. The negative terminals go on to the spring loaded end, with the positive terminals going nearest the lights.
ʵConnect the charger to a standard mains supply using the cable provided and switch on. The charger’s lights will run up and down
while the battery type, state, and charge required is determined. A 12-volt cigarette lighter cable is also provided to power the
charger in a vehicle. The charger’s lights will flash slowly in orange showing the charge progress. When all three LED lights are lit a
steady green the batteries are fully charged and ready for use.
ʵBefore reloading the batteries, ensure that the contacts inside the gun’s battery clip are clean and dry.
ʵSqueezing the sides of the battery clip, push it back into the gun handle. The clip only fits into the gun in one direction; with the
curved end facing forwards.
ʵEnsure that the polarity symbols match (+ to + and - to -) as marked on the clip and the batteries.
A. Gun handle bottom
B. Battery clip. Squeeze the sides of the
tabs on the clip to remove or refit into the
handle. Note the white terminal markings.
C. The two lithium-ion 18650 batteries. On
this type, the black band is on the positive
end, but this may vary from other makes,
so be sure to check before fitting.
D. The curved end of the clip goes to the
curved end of the handle when refitting
the battery clip.
E. Orange flashing lights showing that the
batteries are charging and their state of
charge.
F. Three green steady lights mean the
batteries are fully charged and ready for
use.
Note: Please use only the supplied batteries.

Preparing the gun for use
Fitting the feed tube
A. Unclip the retainer and fit the feed tube with anti-kink coil
through it.
B. Press the tube and coil snugly into the retainer recess, with
the retainer’s flared end pointing backwards.
C. Refit the clip with the hose and coil fitting over the
attachment.
D. Ensure the valve housing knurled ring is snug and has not
loosened while fitting the tube and coil.
Using the gun in manual mode
Use the up and down buttons to select the dose amount you wish to administer. Press the trigger to dispense the dose. Dose amounts
above 70 ml will be dispensed in two half amounts. The gun will automatically deliver the second dose directly after the first.
Using the gun in auto mode (G20 only)
Note: Please ensure the Wi-Fi is turned off when not in use – this will prolong battery life.
Set up your Te Pari Scale for auto dosing as shown on page 10.
Ensure that the gun’s Wi-Fi is enabled to allow the gun to automatically connect to the scale. Each time a weight is recorded the scale
will calculate the dose size based upon the animal’s weight. The calculated dose size will be sent to the gun and will display on the main
screens of both the scale and the gun.
Press the trigger once to dispense the dose. Dose amounts above 70 ml will be dispensed in separate amounts. The gun will automatically
deliver the second dose directly after the first.

To ensure the continued high performance of your gun always clean
and lubricate the gun immediately after use.
Start by reading the cleaning instructions provided by the fluid
manufacturer.
Remove the inlet tube from the fluid container and empty the fluid
from the gun and inlet tube.
Place the end of the inlet tube in a mixture of warm water and a
little dishwashing detergent, then flush about 1 litre through the
gun until it is clean. Flush again with clean water.
Inspect the inlet valve and outlet valve and ensure they are clean.
Remove the barrel and wipe any residue from the barrel with a soft
tissue.
Important – Lubricate the valves, piston O-ring, and barrel with a
small amount of vegetable oil after cleaning and before storing the
gun.
Periodically remove the valves and wash in warm water and
dishwashing detergent. To access the inlet valve, unscrew the
front of the inlet valve housing. To access the outlet valve, remove
the nozzle and cap then use a small screwdriver to release the
C-shaped valve retainer, being careful not to damage it. Be sure to
refit it after cleaning as the outlet valve will not function without it.
Wipe the exterior of the gun with a damp cloth and dry off. Do not
submerge the gun in water when cleaning.
Store the gun in a clean, dry place, out of direct sunlight.
Recommended storage temperature is from -10° to 35° C (14° to
95° F). Store above 0° C for optimum battery performance.
If batteries are in a low charge state, fully charge them before
storage. Remove the batteries before storing the gun.
