CLEAN-UP
Always clean the gun at the end of the day or
between colors
1. Using a rag moistened with a compatible
solvent, clean the cup and the outside of the
gun.
2. Remove the Air Cap, Baffle and Nozzle and
clean with a cleaning brush. Take care to
avoid damage to the air cap holes.
3. Remove the needle and clean. Clean the paint
carrying orifices of the gun. Do not allow
solvent to enter the air carrying orifices of
the gun. Therefore point the gun down while
cleaning the paint orfices.
Never soak the entire gun in solvent.
USING OPTIONAL REMOTE PRESSURE
POTS
The standard set-up of this gun is as an HVLP
turbine cup-feed gun. It is also possible to use
this gun and turbine with a remote pressure pot
(pressure feed set-up). All that is necessary is to
convert the gun. To convert:
1. Use an appropriate wrench to loosen the nut
to remove the paint cup.
2. Connect the hose from the pressure pot.
3. Use an appropriate wrench to unscrew the
nipple for the vent tube from the gun body.
4. Use a bolt with the correct thread to plug the
hole from the nipple.
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
When using a pressure pot, the pot must always
be relieved of pressure before opening. To relieve
pressure:
1. Shut off the air supply to the pot.
2. Open the pressure relief valve on the pot.
SPRAYING TECHNIQUE
Keep the gun about 150 to 200mm away from the
surface. Do not swing the arm in an arc. Rather,
keep the gun perpendicular to the surface and
move in a parallel motion. Make sure the gun is
already in motion before triggering and release the
trigger while the gun is still in motion. Overlap 50%
with each stroke.
