Inspection, Maintenance, and
Cleaning
BEFORE EACH USE,1. inspect the
general condition of the Paint Sprayer
and its accessories. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, cracked or broken
parts, damaged electrical wiring/air
hose, and any other condition that
may affect its safe operation.
IMPORTANT: 2. The Spray Gun must
be cleaned immediately after each
use. Improper cleaning is a com-
mon reason for the Spray Gun not
to operate properly. Materials dry
quickly which will render the Spray
Gun useless. It is extremely difcult
to remove dry paint/uid from small
passages within the Gun.
SOLVENT SELECTION: 3. Always fol-
low the paint/uid manufacturer’s rec-
ommendations for cleaning, solvent

Use warm, soapy water.
IMPORTANT: Do not use min-

paints/uids or the mixture will
congeal, making it very difcult to
remove.
If a ammable solvent is used, ad-
here to the following: (1) Follow all
of the solvent manufacturer’s clean

tions at all times. (2) If collecting
ushed solvents into a metal con-
tainer, transfer into a larger non-
