Connect the Fluid Line

1.Before connecting the fluid line (N), blow it out with air and flush it with solvent. Use solvent which is compatible with the fluid to be sprayed.

2.Install a fluid regulator (M) on the fluid line to control fluid pressure to the gun.

WARNING

Skin Injection Hazard

The fluid drain valve (U) is required in your system to assist in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun. Trig-

gering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient. Install a drain valve close to the pump's fluid outlet. The drain valve reduces the risk of seri- ous injury, including fluid injection and splashing in the eyes or on the skin.

3.Install a drain valve (U) near the pump outlet.

4.Connect the fluid line to the 1/4 npsm gun fluid inlet

(W).

5.Before running any paint through the spray gun, flush it out with a compatible solvent.

Installation

Filter the Fluid

Install a fluid filter (K) at the pump outlet to remove parti- cles and sediment which could clog the spray tip.

The gun includes an inline fluid filter (1) for additional fil- tration.

Select a Spray Tip

WARNING

Skin Injection Hazard

To reduce the risk of a fluid injection injury, always follow the Pressure Relief Proce- dure, page 24, before removing or installing the spray tip, air cap, or tip guard.

The fluid output and pattern width depend on the size of the spray tip, the fluid viscosity, and the fluid pressure. Use the Spray Tip Selection Chart, page 46, as a guide for selecting the appropriate spray tip for your application.

Refer to the gun operation manual to install the spray tip.
