TURBINE UNIT
The turbine unit only requires minimal maintenance
l
Ensure its filter (28) element is kept clean at all times.
This is the filter underneath the main body of the Motor Unit. Disconnect the unit from the mains, turn on side
and remove foam material. This can be washed out if necessary and replaced when dry. From time to time
this filter will need replacing (part no.L0058).
l
The turbine bearings are sealed and lubricated for life. There is no maintenance or adjustment required.
l
Clean the turbine and hose unit with a damp cloth after use.
l
The hose is stored by coiling it between the motor housing and hose cover.
l
The mains lead is stored by wrapping around the base of the unit and locating the plug in the space at the
back of the unit.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Gland Washers (16) prevent leakage of air past the needle. This leakage reduces the performance of the spray
gun and must, therefore, be kept to a minimum. After a period of use the Gland Washers will wear. This is
normal and can be compensated by gradual adjustment of the Gland Nut (15).
Periodically check to ensure the Gland Nut is not loose. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN as this will increase wear
of the washers. When necessary just tighten the nut lightly using the special spanner provided.
By tightening this nut, the inside diameter of Gland Washers reduce thereby closing any small gap that may
have occurred between the Needle & Gland Washers, therefore, eliminating excess leakage.
NEVER DISPOSE OF PAINTS OR SOLVENT INTO DRAINS. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL COUNCIL TO
ARRANGE COLLECTION OR FOR DETAILS OF NEAREST REGISTERED DISPOSAL SITE.
