maximum effectiveness in purging
the gun of chemical.

b)
Disengage the Safety Stop by pushing in and turning the Safety Stop
Knob counterclockwise to place the gun in the Open detented position.

Gun Cleaner in an appropriate container.

Release both triggers and close the Manual Valves on the Service
Block.

Repeat the Procedure for the other side of the Gun.
