NOTE: Review the assembly process and dry fit the 
water jacket/jet assembly to the gun to determine its 
final position before applying thread sealant. 

7.3.2

  While applying slight pressure on the trigger, 

screw the water jacket into the gun until the trigger 
begins to move. 

Make note of the position of the 

water port (Shown in Figure 19) in relation to the 
gun

, then screw the jacket in all the way. Note the 

position of the water port when the jacket is threaded 
into the gun. If the port is facing down or slightly to either  
 

side of the bottom position, it is okay. If it is sideways or 
facing UP, loosen the jacket until the port is facing down 
or slightly to either side. Do not loosen it beyond the 
position noted above in 

bold Italics

 or the gun will leak 

air. Make a note of this positioning; this will be the final 
position of the jacket when it is reinstalled using thread 
sealant.  
 

7.3.3

  Note which side the water valve handle is 

facing. After the jacket is removed, the valve may be 
rotated to the left or right side, whichever is most 
comfortable for the operator. 
 

7.3.4

Remove the water jacket/jet assembly from the 

gun and if necessary rotate the water valve so the 
handle is in the most comfortable side for the operator to 
adjust.  
 

7.3.5

Apply breakaway thread sealant such as Loctite 

243 to the first few threads on the water jacket and 
screw the jacket into the gun to the position noted in 
Paragraph 7.3.2. 
 

7.3.6

  Set the gun assembly aside and refer to the 

sealant’s directions to allow the sealant to cure. 

NOTE: 

Do not attach any other components to the gun 
assembly until the sealant has cured for the 
recommended time.
