SECTION 3: Initial Setup
1. Install Counter Chip:
Locate the RS232 port on the front left hand side
of the machine.
Take the C-H Chip, which has been provided with
your machine, and install it into this port.
The VMI Hybrid unit will recognize this chip, once
the machine is powered on.
2. Fill the Water Bottle:
Locate the Back Panel Door, on the backside
of the machine, and pull down on this door to
access the Bung Solution and Water Bottle
compartment.
Find the Water bottle, located inside this
compartment.
Remove the Water bottle from the machine and
ll as shown in the corresponding picture. Note:
This bottle can be lled with any potable water.
Also included inside of this compartment, on
the back wall are markings branded into the
back wall indicating which tube is for the Bung
Solution and which tubing is for the Water. Locate
the Water tube.
Feed the designated tube through the Water
bottle cap. Note: Make sure the tube reaches the
bottom of the bottle and make sure not to pinch
the tube.

3. Install Bung Solution Bottle:
Two bottles of Bung Solution have been
provided with your machine. Find the bottle of
Bung Solution which has an opening for tubing
in its cap. Note: Only one of the two Bottles of
Bung Solution contains a cap with an opening
for tubing. This cap must be saved for reuse.
Before installation, it is essential to shake this
bottle well!
Once you have shaken the bottle, unscrew the cap, and remove the internal
Safety Seal. Note: Please keep this Safety Seal! Reinstall the cap.
Also located inside of the bottle compartment, on the back side of the
machine, are markings indicating which tube is for the Bung Solution.
Locate this tube.
Feed the designated tube through the Bung Solution bottle cap. Note: Make
sure the tube reaches the bottom of the bottle and make sure not to pinch
the tube.
Close the back panel door.
Reminder: Please keep the Shipping Cap (this does not have an opening for
tubing) and the Safety Seal. Should the machine need to be sent in for servicing,
the Bung Solution bottle must be removed. To ensure that the solution will not
cure, you will need to make sure that the bottle is sealed and capped.
4. Install Power Cord:
Insert the power cord into the power inlet on the
back of the machine.
Take the other end of the power cord and plug it
into a wall outlet.
On the back side of the machine, turn the ON/
OFF switch to the ON position.(After a couple of
seconds, the Top Cover will automatically open.)
Leave the Top Cover in the open position.

5. Prep Bung Solution and Water Lines:
Warning: Failure to prep the Bung Solution &
Water lines will cause damage to both the disc
and the Bung Pads!
The top cover must be in the open position to
perform these steps. Have a paper towel or small
container ready, in order to catch the Bung
Solution and the Water, which will come from the
tube nozzles.
Locate the two smaller buttons, labeled“C”& “W”, on the front User Keypad.
“C” = Bung Solution & “W”= Water.
To activate the prepping process, press either the “C” or the “W” button. Note:
Both lines can be prepped at the same time.
Once the prepping process has been activated, tilt the Top Cover down
toward you, at about a 45 degree angle. (Note: Make sure that the Platen
Assembly is installed, so that solution and water does not pour directly onto
the shaft of the main motor!) This will ensure that the solution and the water
drips out of the nozzles and onto the paper towel.
Once the Bung Solution and the Water comes out of the designated tube
nozzles and there is no more air left in the lines, press the“C” and the “W” button
to stop the prepping process. Leave the Top Cover in the Open position.
6. Install the Center Hub:
Locate and remove the Lid Stopper. Let the Top
Cover gently open to its farthest position. Locate
the Hex shaped post between the two Bung
Pad holders.
Take a Center Hub and line up the hex shaped
opening on the hub with the hex shaped
post. Push the Center Hub into place. Spin the
Center Hub by hand to make sure that the hub
is installed properly. The Center Hub should
not wobble when it spins. If needed, make an
adjustment. Leave the Top Cover in the Open
position.

10
7. Install the Bung Pads:
Locate the two Bung Pad Holders.
Take one set of new Bung Pads.
Each Bung Pad has been marked on the back
side with an “L”or an “R”, to indicate which Bung
Pad should go on which Bung Pad Holder.
Note: Orientation of the machine is from the
prospective of the Operator facing the front of
the unit. The “R” (RIGHT) Bung Pad is larger in
size than the“L” (LEFT) Bung Pad.
Install each Bung Pad onto the Bung Pad
Holders. Make sure that each Buer Pad is
centered and fully seated on the Bung Pad
Holder.
Reinstall the Lid Stopper.
Caution: It is essential to keep the Top Cover in
the Open position when the machine is in the
“Stand By”mode and when the machine is not
in use! This will ensure that the Bung Pads will
not become at, which would aect the repair
process, and would cause an error message to
display. If you would like to keep the Top Cover
closed, when the machine is not in use, make
sure to remove the Platen Assembly.
Your VMI Hybrid unit is now ready to be used!
