I purchased this product 3 days ago. Can't figure out how to separate black plastic insert to empty. How do I do it?

Easiest way is, grip jug with both hands around the center and while rotating jug with hands, press upwards on insert edges with your thumbs. Be careful, if its full it will splatter when it pops open. once this is done a few times it gets easier.

At first it's hard to open but it gets easier, you just gotta give it a good tug by pulling at the black cap until it opens

Depending on how porous or rubberized the black plastic is, I would try flushing the area with warm water and you might have to use an old toothbrush to get into the embedded areas.

Separate chambers. I took off the paper label on the cartridge so I could see the fill holes. Then I stuck a thin straw into a hole to see what color it had, and filled that hole with the proper color. I have been doing this a long time and it works great. I have better luck if I let the cartridge sit for a few hours after it is filled and then print a couple of test runs.

There's a hole in the side that's not for a button, take a screw driver or something and just gap it apart. the rest is just gently applying force until it separates. I haven't found a better way to do it.

The removal and replacement of the wooden insert is really simple but not very intuitive. Take the insert and push the entire insert into the 'pocket' that holds the back of the insert. You can then slide the insert over to one side and it will easily come out. Here is a URL to a youtube video showing how it works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlAS3miu2S8Thank!MoBamboosa

There is a little screw you need to unscrew on the back side of the plastic. It's a very small screw. Once you have unscrewed it you will need to pry the two pieces of plastic apart to separate (or open the plastic back). When it is open you'll see where you set the digit code. If I can do it......it's easy!

I called customer service. They had me open up the black base & take the metal out. It worked.

I was confused about what plastic to rip off or if I was just to shove them in. I had to push the cartridge in pretty firmly. Don't rip off the clear plastic first. I have already used mine so I can't look at one to remember what it looked like before I put them in the printer. But I remember wondering if I was to rip off the small round piece of plastic on the side that goes into the printer. My advice is to put it in the slot and give it a firm push. The little black lever on the top should pop up when the cartridge is seated. This is assuming you have the same printer and cartridges I do. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

Call the company. They'll email you the instructions. It's a multi step process. Put it with your instruction book because you won't remember how to do it.

Eventually, the black rubber begins to disintegrate a little and form a dark edge. At that point, you'd want to discard the unit I think.. After several years I decided to toss mine because of the disintegration.

I called Bunn and was connected with their commercial support. I was advised NOT to try to take off the Bellow Cap and not to try to clean it by pouring water in it. I asked why the directions said to take it apart. I was told that these instructions come from the manufacturer (?) and aren't correct.

Hey Jonathan, did you find out about this or found another insert suitable for the kind of combo you have? (I have a similar one and am desperately looking for an insert solution!

There should be a rectangle about a cm long between the two plastic cases where they meet on the side. Try to unhook all the latches by pulling on that first then going all around the edges doing the same. The rubber underneath should come off easy once the plastic is off.

I found good instructions online.I don't remember the exact process but it was quite simple. Sorry I can't be more help.

pop the top(the "handle" it takes a little effort!)then take off the clear plastic part. The cap on the bottom acts as a funnel to help! let me know if that helps!

There's basically nothing to it. Once your carefully cut the shipping plastic, it will rapidly expand to nearly full thickness. Within a couple minutes it will probably expand to 90% of its final thickness. Another 24 hours and it will be completely expanded! There's no need at all to remove the shell; in fact, I highly doubt that you'd be able to separate the layers.

Simple. Just unscrew the bottle, and the two base pieces should separate easily. If not, give a little twist.
