Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Regulation

In certain states, spraying solvents that release VOCs into the atmosphere when cleaning

a spray gun is prohibited. To comply with these air quality laws, you must use a cleaning method that prevents the escape of VOC vapors into the atmosphere. See Compliant Cleaning Methods, page 5

Clean air line filters as directed by the

manufacturer.

•Frequently lubricate the gun moving parts with a drop of non-silicone oil.

•Do not disassemble the spray gun if you are having a spray pattern problem. See Troubleshooting, page 7, for information on how to correct the problem.

•Check for fluid leakage. Tighten fittings or replace equipment as needed.

Flush

Flush before using the equipment, before changing colors, and when you are done spraying. Use solvent that is compatible with gun wetted parts and fluid that will be sprayed.

See Compliant Cleaning Methods, page 5, to comply with air quality laws if applicable.

Cleaning Nozzle and Air Cap

1.Remove air cap (13), trigger gun, remove nozzle (11), and soak both in a compatible cleaning solution.

2.Clean them and the front of the gun with a soft-bristle brush dipped into compatible solvent. Do not use a wire brush or metal tools.

3.Use a soft implement, such as a toothpick to clean out air cap holes.
