Manual 31-46

Perform the following steps to install the gun cable, powder feed hose,
and air tubing.

WARNING:  All electrically conductive equipment in the spray
area must be grounded.  Ungrounded or poorly grounded
equipment can store an electrostatic charge which can give
personnel a severe shock or arc and cause a fire or explosion.

NOTE:  The spray gun is shipped with gun cable and air tubing
extensions connected to the back of the spray gun.  This allows the gun
cable and air tubing connections to be made without having to
disassemble the spray gun.

NOTE:  To increase powder flow and keep distribution of air in the
powder even, keep the powder feed hose as short as possible.  The
powder feed hose should be no longer than 16 m (50 ft) long.

See Figure 3-2.

NOTE:  Two inlet connector barbed fittings are shipped with the gun:  a

-in. fitting (attached to the spray gun), and an 11-mm fitting (shipped

loose).  Select the correct fitting based on the size of feed hose in your
system.

1. Install the powder feed hose.

a. Unscrew the inlet connector nut (8) and remove the nut and

barbed fitting (9) from the inlet connector body (10).

b. Slide the supplied hose clamp (7) onto the powder feed hose (6).

c. Install the powder feed hose over the barbed inlet fitting.  Secure

the feed hose with the hose clamp.

d. Install the barbed fitting into the inlet connector body on the gun.

Tighten the nut to secure the barbed fitting to the connector body.

e. Connect the other end of the powder feed hose to the powder

pump.

f. If using the gun in a quick color change system, install the second

feed hose onto another barbed fitting/nut assembly following
steps b–e.  Push the second feed hose assembly onto one of the
fittings on the hose support bracket.
