5.3 After Each Use
<continued>
Clean the rest of the airbrush body and dry thoroughly.
Make sure the entire airbrush is re-assembled properly.
Spray some water or alcohol through your airbrush to make
sure it has been thoroughly cleaned and is functioning properly
before storing.
Note:
After your airbrush parts have been removed and cleaned,
they must then be carefully replaced and adjusted in their designat-
ed positions. Failure to align each part correctly will prevent your
airbrush from functioning properly. In many instances, when an
airbrush fails to perform correctly, these problems result from
improper cleaning and/or alignment of parts.
5.4 Airbrush Back Flushing
Remove the rear handle cap, loosen the needle lock and retract
the needle slightly back into the fluid nozzle. Retighten the
needle lock.
Partially fill the paint reservoir with water or cleaner.
Using your finger or a towel, carefully block the front of the
airbrush opening (needle cap). Refer to Figure 5A below.
Pull trigger to push air upstream into the paint reservoir to back
flush (bubbles will appear in paint reservoir).
Hold 15 to 20 seconds. Then pour out the dirty solution.
Repeat back flushing until the water or cleaner in the paint
reservoir remains clean.
