component materials or epoxies, etc.
4. To reclaim the material in the pump, place
the drain tube in the original material bucket.
With the priming valve still in the
open position, turn the machine on and turn
the pressure control knob clockwise just
enough to run the pump. watch the material
discharging from the drain tube until the
material begins to thin. This indicates that the
flushing fluid is beginning to pump out. Now
transfer the drain tube to the waste bucket
and continue to flush until clear flushing fluid
flows out.
5. Shut off the machine and back off the pressure
control knob to minimum. Close the priming
valve.
6. To reclaim the material in the line, with the tip
and guard removed, point the gun into the
material bucket and hold the trigger open.
7.
Place the waste bucket right next to the
material bucket.
8. Ensure that the pressure knob is in the
minimum position and turn the unit on.
9.
With the trigger held open, slowly turn the
pressure knob clockwise to increase the
pressure just enough to let the pump run.
10. Allow the pump to run and watch the material
discharging from the gun. Allow the material
to discharge until the material begins to thin.
This indicates that the flushing fluid is coming
up the hose..
11.
Without releasing the trigger, quickly transfer
the gun from the material bucket to the waste
bucket next to it.
WARNING: Do not release the gun trigger during
this process. If you release the trigger, pressure
will build in the line and when you re-squeeze
the trigger there will be a splashback hazard.
12.
Keep the trigger held open and allow the
pump to run and watch the fluid discharging
from the gun. Allow the fluid to discharge
until all traces of material are gone and pure
flushing fluid is coming out.
13. Without releasing the trigger, transfer the gun
to the flushing bucket and allow the flushing
fluid to recirculate for 2-3 minutes to make
sure that all traces of the material are cleaned
out.
14.
Turn off the machine and unplug. Open the
priming valve to relieve residual pressure.
15. Remove the suction tube out of the flushing
fluid.
16.
Clean the inlet strainer or hopper strainer.
Remove and clean it with a soft brush in the
appropriate solvent and replace.
17. If your unit is equipped with the optional
pump filter, use a wrench (not supplied) to
remove the filter nut. Then remove the pump
filter and clean it with a soft brush in the
appropriate solvent. Then replace and tighten.
18.
Clean the gun, tip, and gun filter. unclip the
hand guard and rotate it out of the way. Then,
using a wrench (not supplied) loosen the nut
on the bottom of the handle and remove the
handle to remove the gun filter. Clean the tip
and filter with a soft brush in the appropriate
solvent. Apply a small amount of light oil
such as WD-40 to the inside of the spray gun
