Maintenance.
1. Clean the TRIMIX® mixer head (17) frequently when in use.
2. Always leave the TRIMIX® mixer head (17) immersed in cleaning solvent. When left
unused for long periods, place in a tightly sealed recipient with solvent. This will
impede the evaporation of the solvent and the catalyser outlets becoming blocked
by any remaining residue.
3. Clean the equipment each day with the cleaning solvent recommended by the
manufacturer and which we applied to the resin pump (1) (dual membrane or
pressure tank) to avoid blockage from resin residue.
4. Clean the equipment each day with the cleaning solvent recommended by the
manufacturer and which we applied to the catalyser pump (8) (pressure tank) to
avoid blockage from the catalyser.
5. Check the gun, anti-pulsation chamber or absorption filters between the 1st and the
2nd cleaning.
6. Grease the exchange valves in dual membrane units ONCE PER WEEK when the
equipment is in use.
The equipment is to be subjected to an initial revision some 3 months after installation. This
check is to cover all the
AIRBRUSH MANUAL EXTERNAL MIX EQUIPMENT’S spray
equipment , as well as the correct operation of all the equipment’s safety systems. If
everything is as it should be after the service check, further service checks are to be carried
out every six months until the end of the guarantee period. After the guarantee expires, the
frequency of service checks will be agreed with the client.
