Before putting the unit into operation, and especially after each cleaning and/or repair operation, a
check must be made that the gun components are securely tightened and that the air and/or product
hoses are airtight (no air leaks). Faulty parts must be replaced or repaired as appropriate.
The gun is easy to handle thanks to its design and the simplicity of its mechanisms. No special
training is required for handling the gun. Use the gun according to the operating, maintenance
and safety instructions indicated in this manual and follow the application methods indicated to obtain
the required quality of finish.
Before putting the unit into operation, we recommend you to clean the gun as this has been
subjected to functional tests and before packaging it is treated internally with a protective coating, some
of which may still remain. Apply thinner to eliminate this. Remove any residual grease applied during
assembly.
Ensure that the products to be applied are chemically compatible with the components these
come into contact with (Brass, Stainless Steel, Tungsten Carbide, PTFE, Polyamide, FKM).
Do not use corrosive or abrasive products.
The gun has been designed for long service , and can be used with the majority of the products
available on the market. Its use with highly aggressive products will quickly increase the need for
maintenance and spares. If you need to apply special products, please contact SAGOLA S.A.U.
Read and apply all the information, instructions and safety measures indicated by the manufacturer
of the products to be applied (thinners, etc.) as these may provoke chemical reactions, fires and/
or explosions, or be toxic, irritant or harmful and in all cases dangerous for the health and
personal safety of the user and of other persons nearby (see chapter on Safety and Health).
Mix, prepare and filter the product to be applied in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions, ensuring that any foreign bodies are prevented from
spoiling the quality of finish and application. Should there be any doubt relating to
the purity of the product, its composition, etc., please contact your supplier.
Control the viscosity of the product to be applied with the SAGOLA Viscosimeter
- Code 56418001
07. Useful tips
07.1.- General advice
Use the lowest spray pressure in the nozzle that allows you to obtain
the required finish. Not all products require the maximum pressure
for correct spraying. With a lower pressure, less air is consumed and
there is an additional increase in product transfer.
The gun leaves the factory ready to spray products correctly with
the air nozzle corresponding to each application. It is adjusted to an
air inlet pressure of 2 bar to ensure maximum performance.
