When refilling syringes:
- Place the caps on the tips
- Be sure that you are putting Part A in Syringe A etc...
- Remove the plunger and fill them to the 10ml mark from the back.
- Once they are full replace the plunger and set tip end up until air is at the top
- Remove caps and push out air.
- Make sure that both syringes have the same amount of adhesive in them
