Setup
CAUTION
This equipment is compatible with most water-based
materials. See the wetted parts in the Technical
Data section and your fluid and solvent manufactur-
er’s compatibility information.
I. Prepare the operator.
All persons who operate the system should be trained
in the safe, efficient operation of all system compo-
nents as well as the proper handling of the chemical
coating. At a minimum, all operators should thoroughly
read the safety, installation and operation sections of
this manual and the component manuals.
II. Prepare the site.
1. Use a minimum 5 HP (3.7 kW) air compressor for
efficient operation.
2. Clear obstacles and debris that could cause an
unsafe operating environment.
3. Bring an air line from your compressed air supply
to the pressure pot location. Be sure the air is dry
and filtered. Install a bleed-type master air valve
upstream from the pressure pot. When it is closed
and the pressure pot air regulator (33) is opened,
the bleed-type master air valve relieves all air
pressure to the equipment components.
4. Ventilate the spray booth.
WARNING
TOXIC FLUID HAZARD
To prevent hazardous concentrations of
toxic and/or flammable vapors, spray
only in a properly ventilated spray booth.
Never operate the spray gun unless ventilation
fans are operating.
Check and follow all of the national, state and local
codes regarding air exhaust velocity requirements.
