3. Place the parts and the paint cup in
a bucket or other suitable container.
Soak the parts in a suitable solvent,
or in soap and water if latex was
used (See Figure 16). To clean the
gun, flush a suitable cleaning solvent
through the material tube until the
so lu tion begins to clear. Repeat the
pro ce dure from the nozzle end of
the gun (See Figure 16).
4. Use the brush (saturated with sol-
vent) between flushes to clean the
material tube and the nozzle (See
Figure 17).

5. Reinstall the components in reverse
order of disassembly (See Figure
18). Always install nozzle before
installing the needle to prevent
needle damage.
6. When the gun and all parts are
thoroughly cleaned, use the turbine
hose to dry the parts and blow the
passages dry. Thorough drying of
the gun and all components prior to
reassembly prevents coating con tam-
i na tion during the next operation
of the unit, and inhibits oxidation
of internal gun components (See
Figure 18).
The four raised

knobs on the air flow
ring must be facing forward (toward the
nozzle) when as sem bled. (See Figure 18).
