How to operate
Recommended paint viscosity differs according to paint properties and
painting conditions. 15 to 23 sec./Ford cup 4 is recommendable.
The gun is operate at low air pressure, high transfer efficiency will not be
obtained if the spray distance is to far.
Set the spray distance from the gun to the work piece as near as possible
within the range of 150-300 mm.
Air caps
The air caps are tested and certified according to the SEAVA metod.
This gives a ”finger print” of the spray pattern on each air cap.
For further information please contact your supplier.
The retaining ring for the air cap shall only be tightened with hand force.
No tools are required. Especially important when a capcleaner is used.
Air caps can be sent back for checking and comparity the performance.
For further interesting please contact your supplier.
•
In the event of leakage around the paint needle, tightening the packing
screws (see F Fig. 1). After tightening, check that fluid needle is pushed
forward by the spring force.
• For short standstill periods, for instance over a night, it will
suf fice to clean the air and paint nozzles on the outside. If a
two-com po nent paint is used, however, the gun
must be flushed
through
im me di ate ly
with solvent. This must also be done if the
gun is to re main unused for a longer period of time.
•
When cleaning the air cap and the paint nozzle, use a soft brush
or rag dipped in solvent. Do not place the entire gun in solvent,
as the oil on the lubricated parts would be dissolved. Blow the air
cap dry with compressed air from both sides.
•
Nev er use iron or steel wire to clean air holes and ducts in the
noz zles.
As the equipment works under pres su re the ut most care must
be observed during the work. Bearing this in mind, never aim
the spray gun at a person or towards any part of the bo dy In
the event of personal injury caused by the spray ing pressure,
immediate medical attention is essential. Before carrying out
any adjustment or repair, the equipment must be swit ched off
and the paint pres su re re li e ved.
WAR NING
In ha la tion of paint, paint dust and sol vent is not he al thy. Ma ke
su re an ap pro ved spray booth is used. The ope ra tor must use
per so nal pro tec tion-breath ing mask or fresh air hood.
