  • Page 26: Operation

    Operation 1. Preparation for operation (1) Fill the paint supply system. The viscosity of the paint normally used for this equipment ranges in 9 to 30sec/FC #4, but not limited to viscosity. Consideration must me given to the type of paint and solvent, configuration of the part to be coated, required film thickness and, other conditions.
  • Page 27 2. Starting operation (1) Switch on the power to control unit. When trigger is pulled, red lamp is illuminated to indicate high voltage is applied at the gun head. High voltage is not generated when switch at gun grip is off.
  • Page 28 (6) Wipe off the nozzle and gun body and remove paint and dirt using solvent soaked cloth. To clean a flat spray nozzle, remove its air guide and to clean the round spray nozzle remove its air cap. CAUTION  Whenever coating work is curtailed, close the material adjusting valve on the gun body to prevent any chance of paint flow.
  • Page 29: Maintenance

    Maintenance Spray gun (1) Always keep spray gun clean. To clean the spray gun, do not dip the gun body into solvent. Hold it your hand and wash it carefully using a soft brush or cloth and solvent. CAUTION Replace the gun cover before being heavily contaminated. High voltage is likely to leak through paint attached to the cover especially in the case of using metallic or water-based paint.
  • Page 30 3. Paint hose and power cable (1) Hose and cable should be kept clean from paint accumulation. (2) Use caution not to damage hoses and cables with heavy objects or vehicles. CAUTION Before any maintenance and/or service work, make sure that the power switch is turned off on the control unit and the air/fluid pressure is released.
