Always exercise extreme care when using any solvent or thinner.
Never clean gun near fire, flame, or any source of heat or sparks. Properly dis-
pose of used cleaning materials.
DO NOT soak entire spray gun in solvent or thinner for a long period of time as
this will destroy lubricants and possibly make motion uneven. NEVER use lye
or caustic alkaline solution for cleaning. Such solutions will attack aluminum
alloy parts of gun.
It is important that spray gun be cleaned after daily use. Cleaning is accomplished
by spraying appropriate solvent or thinner through system. Wipe exterior of spray
gun with solvent soaked cloth or use a cleaning brush to remove any accumulated
material.
• Empty material from gravity feed cup and replace with a suitable solvent.
• Operate trigger until all material traces have disappeared and gun is thoroughly clean.
• Remove Air Cap and clean with a cleaning brush.
IMPORTANT: Make certain air cap and fluid nozzle are kept clean at all times.
If necessary, remove these two components (internal fluid nozzle can be removed
using a wrench) and soak them in solvent. DO NOT use hard objects to clean
clogged holes. The smallest amount of damage may cause irregular spray
pattern.
If fluid nozzle is to be removed for thorough cleaning,
squeeze trigger to prevent damage of fluid needle tip when unscrewing nozzle.
Lubrication procedures must be observed after thoroughly cleaning the gun to
ensure effective, high quality performance of spray gun.
1. Lubricate working points with straight mineral oil, or castor oil.
2. Periodically, place a few drops of oil on tapered sections of fluid nozzle to
ensure easy operation of air cap. When spraying water base materials, coat fluid
nozzle inside and outside with straight mineral oil after each use.
3. Outer diameter of needle sleeve of fluid needle assembly must be lubricated
occasionally with straight mineral oil.
