Daily Gun Care, Flushing, and Cleaning

CAUTION

Trigger the gun whenever you tighten or remove the
seat housing. This keeps the needle ball away from
the seating surface and prevents the seat from being
damaged.

9.

If it is necessary to remove the seat housing (13)
to clean, trigger the gun while you remove the seat
housing with the gun tool (36). Remove the seat
housing gasket (12b) and replace with a new
gasket.

10. Clean the tip guard assembly (18), air cap (14),

and seat housing (13) with solvent.

11. Dip the end of a soft-bristle brush into a compatible

solvent. Do not continuously soak the brush’s
bristles with solvent and do not use a wire brush.

12. With the gun pointed down, clean the front of the

gun, using the soft-bristle brush and solvent.

Fig. 14

13. Scrub the tip guard assembly, air cap, and spray

tip with the soft-bristle brush. To clean out air cap
holes, use a soft implement, such as a toothpick,
to avoid damaging critical surfaces. Clean the air
cap and spray tip daily, minimum. Some applica-
tions require more frequent cleaning.
