Spray gun
(1)
Always keep spray gun clean. To clean the spray gun, do not dip the gun body into solvent. Hold
it your hand and wash it carefully using a soft brush or cloth and solvent.
Replace the gun cover before being heavily contaminated. High voltage is likely to leak through
paint attached to the cover especially in the case of using metallic or water-based paint. This
might lead to overcurrent or electrical shock to the operator. Do not use the cover for such
circumstances.
(2) Do not disassemble the gun except in the case of the need for repair and parts replacement.
(3) When there is no work, keep the gun hooked on the gun holder. Never forget to switch off the
control unit whenever gun is not in use.
(4) There are many plastic parts contained in the LP6000 spray gun for minimizing weight.
Although these parts are designed to have enough strength for normal use, care should be
taken that they do not fall on the floor.
(5) It is possible that the rear upper part of the gun body may become warm due to heat produced
by the cascade. This condition is perfectly normal and should be ignored.
2.
Nozzles
(1) Whenever the finishing operation is completed, clean the nozzles thoroughly.
(2) Do not use metal wire or pins to clear clogging of the nozzle holes. To remove clogged holes,
dip the nozzle in solvent a few minutes, then clear with a dust gun using compressed air. Do
not use a metal brush to clean the nozzle.
(3) Nozzles should be cleaned often even during coating operation. Paint sticking to the nozzle
may cause a distorted pattern, effect atomization and electrostatic efficiency.
Nozzle is worn out as paint injection is performed.
Measure the output periodically. When the specified amount cannot be output, replace the
nozzle.
Nozzle is ultra-precision part. Do not drop it or apply any impact.
Damaged nozzle might be causes of deteriorated atomization of paint or pattern shape, and
result in paint failure.
