INTENDED USE To dispense material from GC FujiCEM and GC FujiCEM 2 Paste Pak cartridges. (Not intended for use with other GC Paste Pak products.) IDENTIFICATION OF PARTS (Paste Pak Cartridge) 1. Cover 2. Inner plunger 3. Cartridge tips (GC FujiCEM 2 Dispenser) 4. Body 5. Plunger (Fig. 1) DIRECTIONS FOR USE 1. Cartridge loading (Fig. 2) Retract the plunger completely into the body of the dispenser. Ensure the mark (▲) on the cartridge lines up with the mark (▲) on the dispenser as illustrated. Turn the cartridge fully to the right position. Ensure that the cartridge is properly attached to the dispenser. After cartridge loading, slide the plunger forward until it stops. Remove the cover. Note: To remove the cartridge, retract the plunger fully and turn the cartridge back to the marked positions. 2. Dispensing Before dispensing the first material from a new cartridge or when dispensing after a long interval, bleed the pastes in order to prevent the incorporation of air bubbles into the material. Handmixing - Push the center of the plunger to dispense the paste onto a mixing pad (Fig. 3). While pushing the plunger, level and cut off the extruded material from the cartridge tips by moving the cartridge and Dispenser to an upright position on the mixing pad. When the plunger is released after dispensing, residual pastes at the tips are retracted into the cartridge. Replace the cartridge cover. Note: The minimum dispensing amount is indicated in Fig. 4 (real size). The amount less than indicated may yield inappropriate paste/paste ratio. Automixing – Before attaching the mixing tip, check the two openings of the cartridge tip and confirm the pastes are at the same level to ensure even flow from the cartridge. Attach the GC FujiCEM Mixing tip correctly on the cartridge by aligning the guide pin on the GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip with the hole on the cartridge, simultaneously pushing the tip until it clicks on the cartridge (Fig. 5). Slowly push the center of the plunger to dispense the material into the appliance. To remove the GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip, push the GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip forward while depressing the release tab with one hand, and move the front part of the GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip from side to side with the other hand (Fig. 6). Clean the cartridge tip and replace the cartridge cover. Note: a. Make sure GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip is securely attached to the cartridge. If not, remove the mixing tip and reattach. b. If the material has been refrigerated, leave the cartridge in room temperature for 10 minutes. c. Do not leave the used GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip on the cartridge for a long period of time. d. Before dispensing the material into the appliances, bleed a small amount of the mixed paste on a pad. e. The amount of remaining paste in the cartridge can be confirmed by the position of the inner plunger seen through the cylinders. When only a small amount of paste remains in the cartridge, the paste may not be dispensed from the GC FujiCEM Mixing Tip. f. To avoid damage, do not drop the dispenser with the cartridge and mixing tip. Cleaning / Sterilization of GC FujiCEM 2 Dispenser 1. Clean the dispenser with water and soap or detergent.
