•at the end of a shift to prevent hardening of cata- lyzed material.

To setup Recipe 0, go to Advanced Setup. Select the Recipe tab and change the Recipe to 0. The Recipe 0 Setup Screen appears. Set the chop times from 0-999 seconds in increments of 1 second.

1. Go to Standby mode (remove Mix input).

the gun (manual or automatic) into a grounded metal pail until the purge sequence is complete.

repeat Recipe 0 by pressing Enter .

Purging Fluid Supply System

Follow this procedure before:

•the first time material is loaded into equipment*

•servicing

•shutting down equipment for an extended period of time

•putting equipment into storage

*Some steps are not necessary for initial flush- ing, as no material has been loaded into the system yet.

1. Go to Standby mode (remove Mix input).

Trigger the gun to relieve pressure.

If you are using a high pressure gun, engage the trig- ger lock. Remove spray tip and clean tip separately.

If using an electrostatic gun, shut off the electrostatics before flushing the gun.

2.Attach solvent supply lines as follows:

•Single color/single catalyst systems: discon- nect the component A and B fluid supplies at the flow meter inlets, and connect regulated sol- vent supply lines.

•Multiple color/single catalyst systems: dis- connect only the component B fluid supply at the flow meter inlet and connect a regulated sol- vent supply line.

•Multiple color/multiple catalyst systems: connect the solvent supply lines to the desig- nated solvent valve on the color and catalyst valve stacks. Do not connect a solvent supply to either flow meter.
