Unclogging the Spray Tip

WARNING
Do not attempt to unclog or clean the tip with your finger. Do not use a
needle or other sharp pointed instrument to clean the tip. The hard
tungsten carbide is brittle and can be chipped.
The spray gun is equipped with a reversible tip which allows you to blow
out any particles of old paint or other contaminants that may obstruct
the paint flow through the tip. If the spray pattern becomes distorted or
stops completely while the gun is triggered, follow these steps:
1. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure (see sprayer instruction manual)
2. Rotate the reversible tip cylinder arrow 180°
so that the point of the arrow is toward the
rear of the gun.
3. Unlock the gun and squeeze the trigger,
pointing the gun at a scrap piece of wood or
cardboard. This allows pressure in the spray
hose to blow out the obstruction. When the
nozzle is clear, paint will come out in a straight, high pressure stream.
4. Release the trigger and lock the gun off.
5. Reverse the tip so the arrow points forward again.
6. Unlock the gun and resume spraying.
Cleaning the Gun
NOTE - If spraying with latex paint, use warm soapy water for cleaning.
If using oil or alkyd-based paints, use mineral spirits or paint thinner.
Refer to the paint manufacturer's instructions for specific
recomendations.
Do not use mineral spirits or paint thinner on latex paint, or the mixture
will turn into a jellylike substance which is difficult to remove.
1. Check that the spray tip assembly has been removed from the gun.
2. Run the appropriate solvent through the pump.
3. Hold the metal part of the gun against a metal
container to ground the gun.
4. Trigger the gun into the container until it is flushed
clean. Use the lowest possible pressure.

spray angle
