NOTICE
The threads on the fluid inlet fitting for new model guns are slightly finer than the threads on the old model guns. The fluid inlet fittings are not inter- changeable. Use of an incorrect fitting will dam- age the threads.

•Flush before changing colors, before fluid can dry in the equipment, at the end of the day, before storing, and before repairing equipment.
•Flush at the lowest pressure possible. Check con- nectors for leaks and tighten as necessary.
•Flush with a fluid that is compatible with the fluid being dispensed and the equipment wetted parts.
