5/10/15-GALLON STAINLESS STEEL TANK ASSEMBLIES – OPERATION & SERVICE CHECKS
WARNING
!
High pressure can cause serious
injury.
Pressure is maintained in a pressure
tank after the system has been shut
down.
Follow the pressure-relief procedure
on page 3 before opening the lid or
fill port or performing maintenance
on the tank.
PREPARATION
Mix and prepare material to be used
according to manufacturer's instructions.
Strain material through a fine mesh
screen to remove lumps, skin, and
foreign matter that might enter and clog
fluid passages and/or spray equipment.
Follow pressure relief procedure above.
To add material to the tank, remove the
lid and pour directly into the tank or
container.
If desired, a U.S. or metric 1 gallon pail
of fluid can be placed directly into the
tank.
Replace the lid assembly and tighten
thumb screws (17) securely.
The air supply to the tank should include
a filter/water separator to filter dirt from
the air and remove water and oil.
Connect the material hose to the fluid
outlet ball valve (8).
CONDITION
Air escaping from port on regulator
cap.
Pressure creepage registered on
gauge.
Material tends to settle out rapidly.
Air leakage at agitator seal.
Paint getting into bearing assembly
of agitator.
Fluid or air leak at lid gasket.
Fluid or air leak at fill port gasket.
Air mixing with paint

OPERATION
1. Close the air inlet valve to tank. Turn
handle on regulator counterclockwise
until spring tension is relieved.
2. Turn on air supply to the tank.
3. Open the air inlet valve to the tank.
4. Open the fluid outlet valve.
5. Turn handle on tank pressure regulator
clockwise to pressurize tank.
6. Turn on atomization air to spray gun at
source of supply.
7. Test spray. For further instructions
consult literature provided with spray
gun.
8. If an air motor driven agitator is used,
start the agitator by slowly opening up
the needle valve. Air motor speed
should be regulated according to the
nature of the material being agitated.

MAINTENANCE

To clean equipment, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off the air supply.
2. Follow the pressure relief procedure.
3. Turn T-handle adjusting screw on tank
fluid pressure regulator
counterclockwise until no spring
pressure is felt.
4. Loosen thumb screws (17), tip clamps
(16) back and tip lid (11) to one side
of tank. Do not remove lid from tank.

SERVICE CHECKS

CAUSE
Broken or damaged diaphragm
Dirty or worn valve seat in regulator.

Defective seal assembly.
1. Paint level in tank too high.
2. Defective agitator shaft seal.
1. Thumb screw not tight.
2. Defective lid gasket.

2. Excessive agitation.
5 / 12
5. Loosen spray gun air cap retaining ring
about three turns.
6. Turn on air supply.
7. Cup cloth over air cap on the gun and
pull trigger. This will force material
back through the hose into the tank.
8. Empty and clean tank and parts that
come into contact with material. Use a
solvent compatible with material being
used.
9. Pour solvent into tank.
10. Replace lid and tighten thumb screws
and clamps.
11. Spray until clean solvent appears.
12. Repeat steps 4 through 8.
LUBRICATION – Agitated Models
Refer to the service manual provided with
the air motor for lubrication information.
The bearings in the agitator bearing
assembly are impregnated with special
non-gumming oil. Additional lubrication is
not required.
The agitator shaft seal does not require
lubrication.
CORRECTION
Replace diaphragm.
Clean or replace valve seat.
Increase agitation.
Replace.
1. Keep fluid level under bearing ass'y.
2. Replace
1. Tighten.
2. Replace.
1. Tighten.
2. Replace.
1. Tighten fluid tube into lid.
2. Reduce speed of agitator.
