Flushing

6.Follow Startup on page 8. Keep the gun trig- gered until clean solvent comes from the nozzle. Release the trigger and lock the gun trigger safety.

NOTE: For two guns, unlock the gun trigger safety on the second gun and trigger that gun until clean solvent comes from the nozzle. Flush the first gun and then the second gun at least one more time.

7.Check all fluid connections for leaks. Relieve the pressure before tightening any connections. Start the sprayer. Recheck the connections for leaks.

8.Remove the suction tube from the solvent pail. Unlock the gun trigger safety. Trigger the gun to force solvent from the hose. Do not let the pump run dry for more than 30 seconds, to avoid damag- ing the pump packings. Relieve the pressure.

9.Remove the strainer, suction tube and suction hose and clean them separately to be sure all paint sediment is removed. Dried paint can build up in these parts and later cause performance problems.

10.Unscrew the filter bowl and reinstall the clean screen. Reinstall the bowl, hand tight only.
