CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Submerge the front end of the gun in solvent just until the fluid connection is covered.
2. Paint that has built up on the gun should be removed using a bristle brush and solvent.
3. Never submerge all of the spray gun in solvent. This will dissolve the lubricant in the leather packing
and on wear surfaces, causing them to dry out and resulting in difficult operation and faster wear. Air
passages in the gun will become clogged with dirty solvent.
4. Using a rag moistened with solvent, wipe down the outside of the gun.
5. Oil gun daily. Use a drop of lightweight machine oil on:
A. External Needle Pack Adjustment (Packing Nut)
See FIGURE 1 on page 3 for location of above point.
