Operation
Depressurisation
To avoid injury always depressurise the system when you see this pictogram in the manual.
Also depressurise when
– finishing spraying work
– a part of the system needs to be checked or repaired
– installing, removing or cleaning the spraying nozzle.
1. Engage the gun safety latch.
2. Switch off the device.
3. Unlock the trigger locking device on the gun and pull the trigger in order to remove the
residual material it contains. Hold the metal part of the gun against an earthed metal
pail. Use the minimum pressure.
4. Lock the trigger, turn the ventilation/pressure relief valve
to the open position (vent) and relieve the residual pressu-
re.
If the valve is open, the distance between the valve handle and
the valve housing is greater. In the closed position this gap is
smaller.
The valve handle can move both clockwise and counter clock-
wise and can face different directions.
if the spray tip or hose is clogged, follow steps 1 through 4
above. You can expect the paint to spray into the bucket in
step 3.
NOTE
: If you suspect that pressure cannot be relieved due to a defective ventilation/pres-
sure release valve, or some other cause, slowly release the nut on the hose coupling to relie-
ve the pressure.
WARNING:
Wear personal protective equipment! Cover the area with a cloth.
