Testing & Adjusting:
Pour Testing:
Pull the trigger and start pouring material along a test strip
When you hear the pump reverse direction, have an assistant mark the spot on the test strip and indicate
whether the pump was at the top “T” or the bottom “B” of the stroke. By pouring a bead of material in an
up and down” zig zag” pattern and observing the results you can determine what is causing the issue.
Note that depending on the length of the mixer there will be a delay in the metering issue
and where it appears on the pattern.
