Installation/Operation
Care of the Spray Tip and Tip
Guard
To reduce the risk of fluid injection or splashing in the
eyes or on the skin, do not hold a hand, body or rag
in front of the spray tip when cleaning or checking a
clogged tip. Point the gun toward the ground or into a
waste container when checking to see if the spray tip
is cleared.
Do not try to "blow back" paint; this is not an air spray
gun.
Do not wipe fluid buildup off the gun or spray tip until
pressure is relieved.
Cleaning during the day
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
whenever you are instructed to
relieve pressure, follow the How to
Operate the Gun page 6.
1. Relieve pressure.
2. Clean the front of the tip frequently during the day to
help reduce buildup. Also clean the tip and tip guard
at the end of each work day. Use a solvent soaked
brush to clean the spray tip.
