Cleaning the Tank

3.Open the tank lid.

Proper cleaning is the best way to ensure trouble free performance from your paint tank. If your tank is not thoroughly cleaned, damage and poor operation will result. Problems caused by improper cleaning will not be covered by the warranty. Clean the tank immediately after each use.

To clean the paint tank:

1.DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY FROM THE TANK!

EXPLOSION HAZARD! Removing the lid while the tank is pressurized could result in lid being thrown violently from tank, causing serious personal injury. Always shut off air pressure at source and bleed off all pressure in tank before removing lid.

2.Open the vent valve (Figure 6) to exhaust any tank pressure, and observe the tank regulator gauge (Figure 6) to make sure the tank is un-pressurized.

4.Empty and clean the tank of all paint, and fill it with 1 quart of solvent.

5.Replace the lid, tighten the clamps, and spray the gun until it sprays clean solvent.

Note: Check with local laws regarding this practice. Spraying solvents into the air may be illegal in your area. A cabinet style spray gun cleaner may be required.

6.Wearing safety goggles and gloves, use solvent to thoroughly rinse all parts that came in contact with the material, blow out ports with compressed air and let air dry.

7.Make sure all the fittings on the tank and regulator, valve, and material hose are free of hardened material that could prevent free movement of air.
