Installation

Connect Fluid Line

Before connecting the fluid line, blow it out with air and flush it with solvent. Use solvent that is compat- ible with the fluid to be sprayed.

A fluid drain valve(s) is required in your system to assist in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun; triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient.

A fluid pressure regulator must be installed in the system if the pump's maximum working pressure exceeds the gun's maximum fluid working pressure (see the front cover).

1.Install a fluid filter and drain valve(s) close to the pump's fluid outlet.

2.Install a fluid pressure regulator to control fluid pres- sure to the gun.

Some applications require fine-tuned control of fluid pressure. You can control fluid pressure more accu- rately with a fluid pressure regulator than by regu- lating the air pressure to the pump.

3.Install a fluid shutoff valve to shut off the fluid supply to the gun.

4.Install an in-line fluid filter on the gun fluid inlet (F) to avoid clogging the spray tip with particles from the fluid. See FIG. 6.

5.In a circulating system, connect a grounded fluid supply hose to the gun fluid fitting. Connect a grounded return hose to the other port.

In a non-circulating system, remove the gun fluid outlet fitting (G) and plug the outlet port with the pipe plug (109) supplied.
