Start and Adjust the Ram

1. Turn the disconnect switch (M) OFF.
2. Raise the Ram by opening the main air slider valve
(AA) and setting the ram air regulator (AB) to 40 psi
(0.28 MPa, 2.8 bar).
3. Set the ram director valve handle (AC) to UP and let
the ram rise to its full height.
4. Set the ram director valve handle (AC) to neutral.
5. Lubricate the platen wiper (EB) with grease or other
lubricant compatible with the fluid you will pump.
6. Put a full drum/pail on the ram base and center it
under the platen (D).
7. Remove the drum/pail cover and smooth the sur-
face of the fluid with a straightedge. To prevent air
from being trapped under the platen, scoop fluid
from the center of the pail to the sides, to make the
surface concave.
8. Adjust the drum/pail to be sure it is aligned with the
platen, and remove the platen bleed stick to open
the platen bleed port.
