Cleaning and Maintenance
1.
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure, page 6.
2.
Unscrew the wing nuts and remove the cover (H).
3.
Loosen the retaining ring of the spray gun air cap
about three turns.
4.
Hold a rag over the air cap and trigger the gun to
force the paint back through the hose and into the
tank.
5.
Empty the tank.
6.
Pour a compatible solvent into the tank.
7.
Replace the cover and tighten the wing nuts evenly
and securely. Keep the wing nuts well greased so
they will screw down freely.
8.
Remove the spray gun air cap.
9.
Turn on the air supply. Trigger the gun into a waste
container until clean solvent comes from the gun.
10. Empty the solvent and wipe the inside of the tank
and equipment with a solvent-dampened rag.
11. Remove the riser tube (E) and clean it thoroughly.
12. Keep the pressure relief valve (1b) clean and in
working order. The relief valve is preset and locked
to release air automatically if pressure exceeds 50
psi (350 kPa, 3.5 bar).

NOTICE
Be sure the solvent you use is compatible with the
fluid being sprayed and the hose material.
If paint comes in contact with the pressure relief
valve, remove and clean the valve thoroughly. If the
valve still doesn’t work properly, replace it with a new
one. Do not try to reset the valve.
