1. Never use the following HALOGENATED HYDROCARBON SOLVENTS:

which can cause cracks or dissolution of gun body (aluminium) due to
chemical reaction. UNSUITABLE SOLVENTS: methyl chloride, dichloro-
methane, 1.2-dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene,
1.1.1-trichloroethane

2. Sparks and open flames are strictly prohibited.

Paints can be highly

flammable and can cause fire.Do not expose to open flames, electrical
goods, cigarettes etc.

3. Securely ground spray gun using conductive air hose.

(Less than 1M

)

Always ensure that the spray gun is earthed correctly.

PROTECTION OF HUMAN BODY

1. Use in a well-ventilated site, using a spray booth.

Poor ventilation can cause organic solvent poisoning and fire.

2. Always wear protective gear (safety glasses, mask, gloves) to avoid

inflammation of eyes and skin.

In case of any physical discomfort, immediately seek medical advice.

3. Wear earplugs if necessary.

Noise level can exceed 80 dB(A), depending on operating conditions and
painting site.

4. Pulling the trigger many times during operation, may cause carpal

tunnel syndrome

. Always rest, in case of tiredness.

ALWAYS observe WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in this
instruction manual.

1. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

This ANEST IWATA spray guns kit complies

II 2 G X Suitable for using Zones 1 and 2.
X marking: Any static electricity discharge from the spray gun is to be
diverted to the ground via the conductive air hose as stipulated.

Before use, adjustment or maintenance, it is important
to read this instruction manual very carefully. This ma-

nual must be stored in a safe place for any future reference.

IMPROPER USE

1. Never point gun towards people or animals.

2. Never exceed maximum working pressure or maximum operating

Temperature

3. Always release air and fluid pressure before cleaning, disassembling

or servicing.

Otherwise, remaining pressure can cause bodily injury due

to improper operation or scattering of cleaning liquid.

4. Tip of fluid needle set has a sharp point.

Do not touch the tip during maintenance to avoid accidents.

5. Never use this gun to spray foods or chemicals.

Otherwise, foreign substance, could cause corrosion of fluid passages
which could adversely affect health.

6. Never alter this spray gun,

to avoid insufficient performance and dam-

age.

7. If something goes wrong, immediately stop operation and find the

cause. Do not use again, until you have solved the problem.

8. Do not enter working areas, where robots, reciprocators, etc. are used,

until they have been turned off.

Otherwise, they could cause injury.

3. HOW TO USE

CAUTION

- Use clean air filtered through air dryer and air filter.

- When using this gun for the first time after purchase, adjust fluid nee-

dle packing set (3), spray cleaner to clean fluid passages and remove
rust preventive oil.

Firmly fix hose or container to spray gun, to avoid disconnection of
hose or container, that can cause bodily injury.

1. Firmly connect an air hose to air nipple 1/4”(4-2).

2. Firmly connect a suitable cup to fluid nipple (4-1).

3. Flush fluid passages with a compatible solvent.

4. Pour paint into container, test spray, adjust fluid output and pattern width.

4. HOW TO OPERATE

_ Suggested atomizing air pressure is 1.5 to 2.5 bar (21 to 36 PSI).

_ Recommended paint viscosity differs according to paint property and

painting conditions. 14 to 25 sec. / Ford cup#4 is recommended.

_ Set the spray distance from the gun to the work piece, as near as possi-

ble within the range of 130-200 mm.

_ The gun should be held so that it is perpendicular to the surface of the

workpiece at all times. Then, the gun should move in a straight and hori-
zontal line. Arcing the gun causes uneven painting.

5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

CAUTION

Never use spare parts that are not Anest Iwata originals.

Never damage fluid nozzle tip, fluid needle or air cap holes.

Never immerse the spray gun completely in liquids such as thinner.
