13. Cleaning

When work has been completed, both the gland and the product cup must be cleaned with the
appropriate thinner, in order to remove any remaining product.
Empty the product cup and pour in the thinner, fit and close the cup cover.
Operate the mechanisms and spray the thinner until the application is clean. Repeat the operation
as many times as may be necessary. Remove any remains of product from the gun and cup with a
cloth soaked in thinner.
Keep air gasket areas free of accretions and foreign bodies.
The air nozzle is a precision component. Any deformation, especially in the air outlet orifices, may
cause malfunctions in its operation and incorrect or deficient quality spraying. If necessary, dip the
air nozzle in thinner in order to soften the remains of product or dirt. Once softened, blow the nozzle
with compressed air until any remains of product and thinner are eliminated.
Should it be necessary to remove the air nozzle, do this with an appropriate, soft object, with great
care and avoiding any marking or scratching.
Release the elastic ring that holds its components together.
Once disassembled, clean with thinner, using the cleaning brush supplied.
Do not use any hard or metallic object. The blocked orifices of the
nozzle must not be cleaned with a sharp or hard object under any
circumstances.
Assemble the nozzle.
For automatic cleaning of the gun, tools and accessories used in the
mixing and preparation of the product to be applied, we recommend the
use of SAGOLA washing machines.
The gun can be cleaned with thinners or detergents in a gun washing machine. If you opt for this
cleaning system, we advise you to remember the following considerations, which, if not applied, may
damage the gun and render the warranty null and void:
- Do not submerge the gun in solvent or detergents longer than the time required for cleaning.
- Do not use the gun immediately after cleaning has been completed.
- Ensure that there is no thinner or detergent inside and that it is completely free of these
substances. Other cleaning systems can be used (ultrasound).

14. Lubrication

The original lubrication of the gun is eliminated through use and
cleaning. In order to guarantee perfect operation, it is necessary to
grease the regulating or fastening threads, friction areas, etc., on a
periodic basis, especially after each cleaning session and with greater
care if the gun has been cleaned in a machine. Moving parts must be
lubricated lightly after cleaning has been completed.
Recomendamos utilizar un aceite ligero tipo SAE 10 ó grasa natural o
vaselina.
It is important to check that the lubricant used does not contain components that might impair the
spraying quality (Silicones, etc.)

15. Health and Safety

In order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first disconnect the unit from the compres-
sed air distribution network.
