10.Always flush the mix hose after relieving A and B fluid pressure through the mix manifold. See Flush Mixed Material, page 26.

11.Shutoff the solvent supply pump and repeat steps 6-8 to relieve solvent pressure.

If the mixed material has already been flushed, but pressure remains on the A and B pumps, pressure can be relieved back to the hoppers (J).

a.Close the main air shutoff valve (CA).

b.Open the circulation handle (AC).

NOTE: For longer valve life in abrasive fluids, it is advisable to relieve high pressure out through the gun when possible.

12.If you suspect the spray tip or hose is clogged or that pressure has not been fully relieved after follow- ing the steps above, very slowly loosen tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to relieve pres- sure gradually, then loosen completely. Clear hose or tip obstruction.

13.If static mixer, whip hose, and gun cannot be flushed because of mixed and cured material, very slowly loosen static mixer tube from mix manifold outlet to relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Replace or clean clogged components.
