RECOMMENDED PAINT TANK PRESSURES
Before turning on air pressure, completely loosen the regulator T-handle adjusting screw to shut off the air
pressure. Turn on the air, then adjust the regulator to the required pressure (approximately 12 lbs for
external-mix guns.) Do not use over 50 lbs pressure in the paint tank.
Part of the air from the compressor or airline bypasses pressure regulator through the T-fitting and is
delivered to spray gun operation. Therefore an additional pressure regulator will be required between the
T-fitting and the spray gun for accurate pressure at the spray gun.
INTERNAL MIX GUNS
Use higher tank pressures up to the full amount of air pressure being delivered to the spray gun.
EXTERNAL MIX GUNS
Use lower tank pressures. Always start with the pressure in the tank at “zero” and increase pressure in the
tank gradually until the proper spray pattern is obtained.
Warning! Overpressurization of attachments can result in explosion.
Attachments with a pressure rating lower than the adjusted pressure in the tank
can explode, resulting in serious injury or property damage. Always make sure that
equipment connected to tank or hose outlet has a higher pressure rating than the
regulated air pressure in the tank.
DESCRIPTION
The paint tank can withstand air pressure to a maximum of 80 PSI.
This paint tank is equipped with an air
regulator, gauge, safety valve and fluid outlet. It is constructed of quality materials for durability. The 9 litre
capacity handles many jobs.
USING AN AIR PRESSURE REGULATOR ON PAINT TANK
The pressure regulator on the paint tank regulates the amount of pressure applied to the paint in the paint
tank.
This controls the pressure of the paint being delivered to the spray gun.
MAINTENANCE
Before making any adjustments or changing any accessory, turn off the tool and unplug it
from it's air source.
1. Keep the tool clean.
Wipe the tool with a clean cloth and periodically blow out all areas with compressed
air. If compressed air is not available, use a brush to remove dust from all areas. Do not use harsh chemicals
or solvents to clean the tool. These chemicals could seriously damage the plastic housing.
2. Regularly inspect all mountings and screws to ensure tightness.
Should any screws become loose,
tighten immediately.
3. If repair is required, take the tool to an authorized service center.
CLEANING
It is very important that the tank, material hose and spray gun be cleaned as soon as the spray job is finished.
1. Turn off the main air supply to the tank.
Remove all pressure from the tank by pulling the ring on the safety
valve until the pressure bleeds down.
2. Turn the T-handle adjusting screw on the regulator counter-clockwise until no spring tension is felt.
3. Loosen the thumb screws, tip the clamps back and tip the tank lid down to one side.
4. Loosen spray gun air cap retaining ring about three turns then turn on the air supply.
5. Cup cloth over air cap on the gun and pull trigger.
This will force the material back through the hose, into
the tank.
6. Empty and clean tank and parts which come in contact with the material.
Use a suitable solvent. Pour
solvent into the tank.
7. Replace lid and tighten the thumb screws and clamps and spray until clean solvent appears.
