Connect Air Line

NOTE:

You must install an air pressure regula- tor (F) on each gun air line to control air pressure to the gun. See FIG. 6.

If your regulated air source does not have a filter, install an air filter (G) on each air line to ensure a dry, clean air supply to the gun. Dirt and moisture can ruin the appearance of your finished workpiece. See FIG. 6.

Install a bleed type air shutoff valve (E) on each gun air supply line, down- stream of the gun air regulator, to shut off air to the gun.

1.For manifolds with a separate ATOM and FAN port, the gun cylinder, fan, and atomi- zation air must be supplied and regulated separately. For the manual fan valve mani- fold, only one supply line is required for both atomization and fan air.

NOTE: The gun atomizing and fan air inlets are 3/8 in. O.D. tubing. The cylinder air inlet accepts 1/4 in. (6.3 mm) O.D. tubing. Use 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) O.D. tubing for fan and atomiza- tion air to minimize excessive pressure drop in the hoses.

2.Connect each air hose (D) to a regulated air supply line (H).

Connect Fluid Hose

NOTE:

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

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

Install a fluid shutoff valve (M) to shut off the fluid supply to the gun.

Filter the fluid line of coarse particles and sediment to avoid clogging the fluid nozzle and causing finishing defects. Inline fluid filter 24B707 is available. See Accessories, page 34.

1.Connect the fluid supply hose (J) to the gun fluid inlet (S), 1/4 npsm thread. See FIG. 8.

2.Connect the other end of the fluid hose (J) to a regulated fluid supply outlet (M).

3.In a circulating system, connect a grounded fluid return hose to the gun fluid outlet (T). See FIG. 8.

In a non-circulating system, remove the gun fluid outlet fitting (T) and plug the outlet port with the pipe plug supplied. See FIG. 8.
