Maintenance
Shutdown
Always stop the pump at the bottom of its stroke to pre-
vent fluid from drying on the rod and damaging the
throat packings.
Relieve the pressure.
Care of the Pump
On stainless steel models, check the tightness of the
packing retainer screws (A) weekly. The screws should
be tight enough to stop leakage, but no tighter. Always
relieve the pressure before adjusting the packing
retainer screws. See F
. 2. On carbon steel models,
tighten wet cup (B) using wet cup wrench.
Flushing
If you are pumping fluid which dries, hardens, or sets
up, flush the system with a compatible solvent as often
as necessary to prevent build up of dried fluid in the
pump or hoses.
To reduce risk of static sparking or splashing in the eyes
or on the skin, relieve the pressure and remove the
spray tip before flushing. Start the pump. Hold a metal
part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail
and use the lowest possible fluid pressure during flush-
ing. When flushing is complete, relieve the pressure.
Lubrication
The accessory air line lubricator provides automatic air
motor lubrication. For daily, manual lubrication, relieve
the pressure, disconnect the regulator, place about 15
drops of light machine oil in the pump air inlet, reconnect
the regulator, and turn on the air supply to blow oil into
the motor.
To reduce the risk of serious injury whenever you are
instructed to relieve pressure, always follow the Pres-
sure Relief Procedure on page 8.
