Manuale AXV 052018
Our company disclaims all responsibility if the a.m. safety rules are not observed. It is not responsible for any kind of
negligence at the time of using the equipment or tampering with it.
9. COMMISSIONING .
- Make sure that air and product pipelines are clean before connecting the gun.
For AXV
and
AXV-XXL
- Fill in the tank with the product to be used and seal hermetically.
- Connect the product tube with the union (11) and tighten well by means of proper wrenches, set the tank pressure to 1 bar and
increase progressively to achieve the pressure necessary to spray the product.
For AXV-S
and
AXV-AS
Fill in the tank with the painting product and seal hermetically.
- Connect the compressor with the spray gun through the air coupling (2) and set the inlet pressure to 1 bar while keeping it
constant (by means of the REG26 optional accessory, Pressure Regulator for AXV spray guns) and increase progressively to
achieve the pressure necessary to spray the product (also see paragraph 10).
The air inlet pressure shall never exceed 4 BARS to avoid any breakage or malfunction of the gears inside the spray
gun.
10. REGULATIONS TO OPTIMISE THE APPLICATION OF MATERIALS .
Product flow rate:
- Turn the regulator (3) to the right = to increase the product quantity
- Turn the regulator (3) to the left = to decrease the product quantity
Attention:
If you turn the regulator (3) completely to the left = no product will be dispensed.
Air flow rate:
To regulate the air flow rate, act on the inlet pressure of the pressure gauge and set it to 1 bar at first. Then increase it progressively
to achieve the pressure necessary to spray the product.
Recommended:
- use of the REG26 optional accessory, Pressure Regulator for all AXV spray guns
- use of a compressor with a tank for a min. constant flow rate of 200 lt/min (for lower air flow rate, the grey cap is suggested).
The air inlet pressure shall never exceed 4 BAR to avoid any breakage malfunctioning
Finish degree:
-
To optimise and improve the spray finish, increase or decrease the air quantity by acting on the REG26 pressure regulator and
regulator (4) to vary the air/product proportion while keeping the tank pressure and product flow rate unchanged.
- Turn the cap to obtain 3 different types of spray: oval vertical, oval horizontal or round (Figure .
B
.).
- To paint uniformly, it is recommended to start moving the arm before acting on the dispensing lever and to keep the spray gun
perpendicular to the surface to be painted while performing crossed coats to avoid any irregularity in the paint layer (Figure .
C
.).
For the
AXV-S
model, also act on the air cock (10) on the tank cover.
11. MAINTENANCE .
To make sure that the spray gun will perfectly work all over the time, clean it at the end of each work cycle to prevent any
product residue from drying inside.
For a better cleaning:
AXV
and
AXV XXL
: after use clean all parts with water or detergent suitable for the product in use.
AXV-S
and
AXV-AS
: after use pour clean water or detergent suitable for the type of product in use into the tank, shake the
tank/spray gun and spray (repeat the operation until it is perfectly clean).
Keep the equipment clean and always efficient by observing the instructions for operation and maintenance.
NEVER USE SHARPENED METAL OBJECTS TO CLEAN CLOGGED HOLES SINCE THEY MIGHT DAMAGE THE SPRAY GUN.
