central cam is not broken. A spare is usually packed with a machine if
required replacement
c. Note on the Step6 of the document: check below on each pump/canister
BEFORE fitting onto the dispenser:

speed (default 35). Should not be higher
e. Conduct “Purge All”
f. Conduct 30ml dispense from each pump
g. Check the brush height and adjust if necessary
h. Fill brush container with water
i. Check the turn table movement by hand. Ensure that the turn table does NOT
move when you apply relatively small force. If it moves, you may need to
change the motor

209.4 or higher.

iii. Go to PrismaPro dispense screen and dispense minimum 120 ml per
canister

5. Calibration (optional)

b. Check that each pump is assigned with correct profile
c. Check each profile to ensure that tolerance, number of repeats, and number
of turn table turns are all set as desired value
d. Run “Measure Density” command 2 -3 times to ensure that the density is not
varying. If varying, perform further air elimination. We recommend using the
measured density for calibration.
