➤
The machine must have been set up correctly and completely assembled.
➤
Do not start commissioning the machine unless you have the specified
protective equipment. For details, refer to chap. 2.5.4 on page 16.
➤
A sufficient quantity of the spraying material has to be available.
Observe the safety data sheet of the respective material manufacturer
when processing and storing spraying materials.
You will need 2 collecting vessels for excess material. These containers are
not included in the scope of delivery.
WARNING
If material pumps run dry, the generated friction heat can cause fire or an
explosion.
➤
Always make sure that the material drums do not run dry during oper-
ation. Never leave the machine running unattended.
➤
However, should this happen, stop the corresponding pump immedi-
ately and feed material.
5.1 Commissioning the machine
➤
Ensure proper grounding of the machine and the object to be coated
(see chap. 2.4.3 on page 15).
➤
Check whether all safety features are installed and fully operational
.
➤
Before initial commissioning, remove the adhesive label “Remove before
use” or the vent plug from the overflow.
➤
Check the level of lubricant in the oil container of the maintenance unit (if
fitted) and top up if required (see chap. 6.3.1 Checking the lubricant level
in the fog oiler on page
39
)
.
➤
Check the level of release agent on the pump and top up if necessary
(see chap 6.4.1 on page
41
). On devices on wall brackets, release
agent has to be added during first commissioning.
➤
Flush the machine (see chap. 5.3 on page 33) to remove the factory
test medium (for initial commissioning) or any residue of previous spray-
ing material.
➤
During commissioning (flushing), check whether all machine parts are
tight and re-tighten the connections if required.
5.2 Spraying
The following steps for commissioning have to be completed before spraying
(see chap. 5.1 Commissioning the machine on page 31).
1.
Place the suction pipe into the spraying material.
2.
Regulate the air inlet pressure so low that the pump runs slowly.
3.
Unlock the spray gun and operate it until clean spraying material runs out.
4.
Adjust the air regulator of the pump to the optimum spraying pressure
(see chap. 5.2.1 Adjusting the spraying pressure on page 32.)
