Special safety instructions
Tank
Always check that the tank and gun can cope with
the supply air pressure.
Always assemble the tank correctly.
Never under any circumstances drill or weld the
tank!
Always clean the tank after use, as dirt and paint
particles can block valves, pipes and hoses, causing
pressure in the tank to increase.
Never allow the safety valve to become blocked.
Do not adjust or prevent it from working. Check
safety valve before use to ensure correct function.
NEVER remove the lid while the tank is under
pressure! Always disconnect air supply to tank,
bleed pressure from the system by pressing the
ring on the safety valve before removing lid.
Reactive chemicals (e.g. acids, alkali or halogenated
hydrocarbons) can destroy the seal around the lid,
the safety valve gasket and inside of the tank, and
must therefore not be used.
Chlorinated solvents can explode in contact
with the aluminium parts of the tank and must
therefore not be used. Always read the product
declaration of paints, varnishes and cleaning
agents used and contact the manufacturer or
dealer if in doubt.
Never overtighten the four screw clamps. Tighten
them by hand only.
Spray gun
Never use the spray gun in the vicinity of open
flame or hot objects, as most types of paint and
varnish or highly flammable.
Never spray directly at people or animals.
Follow all safety instructions for the paint used,
and pay particular attention to instructions
concerning personal protection and working area.
Compressed air supply
Compressors and compressed air tools can be
dangerous if operated incorrectly. Always observe
the compressor manufacturer’s safety instructions!
Always be aware of the location of the hose.
Sudden changes in pressure in the hose can cause
it to move with sufficient force to knock over
people and objects, which can cause injury or
damage. Always ensure the hose does not lie in
a place where you could easily trip over it.
Do not allow the compressed air hose to come into
contact with sharp edges, heat and oil.
Never lift or carry the spray gun by its hose. Always
grip the tool itself.
Check the air supply, all hoses, connections,
nipples and adapters and that clean air is being
supplied at the correct pressure before use. Do
NOT use the air supply if this is not the case. Never
use any other pressurized gas sources, such as
oxygen or acetylene.
Disconnect the spray gun from the air hose and
bleed pressure from the tank when the equipment
is not in use.
Bleeding pressure from tank
ALWAYS bleed pressure from the tank before
removing lid and when the equipment is not in
use. Bleed pressure as follows:
Switch off air supply
Pull safety valve ring (7) gently. Compressed air
will bleed from the valve. Hold ring out until air
flow ceases.
Lid can now be opened.
Assembly and cleaning
Assembly
Connect regulator (6) to lid (8).
Screw handle (3) into its threaded socket in
middle of lid, tighten nut.
Connect air hose from air supply to one of the
connectors (4), and connect air hose (9) between
the other connector and that (12) on the spray
gun (16).
Connect paint hose (11) between connector on lid
(1) and that on spray gun (17).
