Spray Gun Cleaning
NOTE:
Trigger the spray gun to pull the ball tip off of the seat before
removing the fluid tip. This will prevent damage to the ball tip and the seat.
CAUTION:
Do not clean the multiplier or the gun cable with solvent.
Failure to observe this caution could result in equipment damage.
Routine Cleaning
1. Remove the fluid tip.
2. Disconnect the air hose and fluid hose(s).
CAUTION:
Use a non-conductive solvent compatible with your coating
material. Cleaning with conductive solvents can result in carbon tracking
and loss of kV.
CAUTION:
Use only a Nordson cleaning brush to clean the fluid tip and
cap. Using metal tools will damage the fluid tip and airless air cap, causing
faulty spray patterns.
3. Point the spray gun down and clean the front of the spray gun with a
soft-bristled brush dampened with a compatible cleaning solvent.
NOTE:
Pointing the spray gun down at a slight angle will prevent
solvents from entering the air passages and possibly damaging the air
seals. Most air seals are not universally compatible with all solvents and
can be damaged.
4. Dampen a soft cloth with a compatible cleaning solvent. Point the spray
gun downward and clean the exterior.
NOTE:
Take special care when cleaning the spray gun with solvents.
Using excessive amounts of solvent can allow solvent to leak into the
spray gun and damage the multiplier. If the gun requires extensive
cleaning, remove the multiplier. Refer to
Multiplier Replacement
on
page 7-12.
5. Clean the fluid tip, cap, and retaining ring with a soft-bristled brush and a
compatible solvent. Remove the O-rings and back-up ring and soak the
fluid tip in solvent if necessary.
6. Install the retaining ring, airless air cap, nozzle, PTFE retaining washer,
gasket or gasket with restrictor, and fluid tip. Pull on the trigger to retract
the ball tip before installing the fluid tip.
7. Install the trigger air hose and fluid hose(s).
