9.Rinse these parts thoroughly in sol- vent then dry with compressed air or let air dry.
Note: If the small holes in the atomiz- ing cap become blocked, soak in clean solvent. If the blockage still exists, clear the blockage with a small needle, taking great care to not enlarge or damage the hole. Damage to the hole will create a disrupted spray pattern.
10.Use the cleaning brush with solvent to clean the inner orifice and other hard to reach areas on the outside of the spray gun body and pressure cup cap.
11.Wipe the rest of the gun body and pressure cup cap with a lint free shop towel and dry.
12.Hang the hose to dry and dry the pres- sure cup with a lint free shop towel.
NOTICE
DO NOT soak the spray gun body in solvent. Prolonged exposure to sol- vent will rapidly deteriorate the spray gun washers and seals. Ignoring this notice will void your warranty.
NOTICE
DO NOT soak the pressure cup cap in solvent. Soaking in solvent will dam- age safety valve and regulator parts. Ignoring this notice will void your warranty.
