PRIMING THE SPRAYER
If you are using the suction tube,
you will need to prime the sprayer
by removing air from the system.
To prime:
1. Turn the flow knob fully
counterclockwise to maximum.
2. Make certain the sprayer is
plugged in.
3. Hold the sprayer below the level
of paint. This will speed the priming.
4. Squeeze the trigger and hold
until all air is out of the system and
material is flowing freely out of the
sprayer tip. This should take about
two minutes.
WARNING- The filter must be
completely submerged in the
paint at all times. If not
completely submerged and air is
sucked into the system, the
piston could seize. If the piston
seizes, the sound the gun makes
will change to a low hum and the
gun will quickly become hot.
Stop using immediately. Clean
and lubricate gun throughly
before re-using.
CLEANING
Run solvent through the tube until it
is clean. Then disassemble the
fittings at both ends before any
remaining paint dries up, thoroughly
clean the adaptor fitting, intake tube
and filter. Also remove the return
cup and clean with an appropriate
solvent.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
After every use it is essential that
you clean the gun thoroughly. This
will prevent any blockages
occuring and provide constant
performance when you next come
to use it.
When you have finished spraying,
empty any remaining material out of
the paint container.
Rinse the spray gun container with
the thinner that was used and spray
through the gun onto cardboard or
newspaper.
REMEMBER-USE SUITABLE
THINNERS WITH A FLASH POINT
OF 32
o
C MINIMUM. ENSURE
ADEQUATE VENTILATION AND
DO NOT SPRAY NEAR NAKED
FLAMES.
Pour some more of the thinner that
was previously used into the
container and spray the gun until
what is being sprayed becomes
clear.
Wipe the nozzle and paint filter then
clear any remaining debris.Finally
turn the gun upside down and apply
a few drops of the lubricating oil to
the piston (fig 8).
