5 Care and Maintenance
5.1 Care
Pay attention to the safety instructions in section 1.4 “For your Safety”:
Before servicing the spray applicator
– Disconnect it from the material supply and
– Release air pressure.
Otherwise ejected elements can cause danger.
To clean the applicator, spray solvent until pure solvent leaves nozzle. Do not
submerge entire applicator in solvent. At longer working interruptions it is advisable
to clean air cap and nozzle by putting these parts only into solvent. If necessary,
use soft brush. To clean small drill holes, use our special nozzle cleaning needles
(Sealing and Repair Kit 97730). Moving parts and threads should always be
greased slightly.

Nozzle
