Clean Gun

CAUTION

•Do not submerge gun in solvent. Solvent dissolves lubricant, dries out packings, and clogs air passages.

•Do not use metal tools to clean air cap holes as this may scratch them and distort the spray pattern.

•Use a compatible solvent.

1.Flush, page 10.

2.Remove air cap. Trigger gun, remove noz- zle, and soak both in a compatible solution.

CAUTION

Trigger the gun whenever you tighten or remove the nozzle. This keeps the needle tip away from the nozzle seating surface and prevents the tip from being damaged.

3.Dip the end of a soft-bristle brush into a compatible solvent. Do not continuously soak the brush's bristles with solvent and do not use a wire brush.

4.With the gun pointed down, clean the front of the gun, using a soft-bristle brush and solvent.

5.Scrub the air cap retaining ring, air cap, and fluid nozzle with the soft-bristle brush.

•To clean out air cap holes, use a soft

implement, such as a toothpick, to avoid damaging critical surfaces.

•Clean the air cap and fluid nozzle daily, minimum. Some applications require more frequent cleaning.

•Do not soak the air cap retaining ring in solvent for prolonged periods of time.

Daily Gun Maintenance

6.Trigger the gun while you install the fluid nozzle with the gun tool. Tighten the nozzle securely to 155-165 in-lb (17.5-18.6 N•m) to obtain a good seal.

7.Install the retaining ring (14) and air cap (13b).

8.Dampen a soft cloth with solvent and wring out the excess. Point the gun down and wipe off the outside of the gun.

9.After cleaning the gun, lubricate the follow- ing parts with lubricant 111265 daily:

•fluid control valve threads

•trigger pivot pin

•fluid needle shaft
