Maintenance
The following procedures describe the maintenance
required to keep the system operating at its
maximum efficiency.
Daily
1. Shut off electrostatic voltage to the system.
2. Shut off compressed air to the system.
3. Shut off the fluid supply to the system.
4. Squeeze the trigger on the spray device to relieve
compressed air pressure.
5. Open the cabinet door. Move the shuttle to
manually separate the couplings.
6. Clean the male and female couplings with a
compatible cleaning solution to prevent coating
material buildup.
7. Apply a small amount of compatible lubricant to
both couplings. This will keep the coating
material from sticking and will facilitate cleanup.
8. Close the cabinet door.
Weekly
1. Shut off electrostatic voltage to the system.
2. Shut off compressed air to the system.
3. Shut off the fluid supply to the system.
4. Squeeze the trigger on the spray device to relieve
compressed air pressure.
5. Flush the system with a compatible cleaning
solution, as needed, following steps 1

5 in
Changing Coating Material or Cleaning the
System.
6. Open the cabinet door. Move the shuttle to
manually separate the couplings.
7. Clean the male and female couplings with a
compatible cleaning solution. Lightly coat the
female coupling shafts with O-ring grease. Use a
stiff brush to work the grease through the spring.
8. The lubrication cup is located on the front of the
pump. Unscrew the plug on the top of the
lubrication cup and add
1
/
2
ounce of properly
diluted Q-solvent to the cup.
NOTE:
Fill the lubrication cup to the bottom of its
vent hole. This will equal the
1
/
2
ounce of properly
diluted Q-solvent that is needed.
9. If your Iso-Flo unit is not equipped with an air
lubricator, remove the air supply hose and add
5
−
10 drops of lightweight valve oil into the
1
/
4
-in. NPT fitting labeled COMPRESSED AIR on
the side of the unit.
10. Close the cabinet door.
