ROUTINE SCHEDULE
Follow these maintenance steps to extend the life of the
applicator and ensure efficient operation:
Several Times Daily
• Turn the power supply power to OFF!
• Inspect the air cap for paint accumulation. Clean as
frequently as necessary with a soft bristled brush and
a suitable solvent.
CAUTION
!
† NEVER remove the fluid nozzle assembly while
paint is in the applicator or paint may enter into the
air passages. Clogged or restricted air passages
will cause poor atomization and/or electrical short-
ing. Air passages that are clogged with conductive
material can lead to excessive current output levels
and consequent low operating voltage or long-term
electrical damage. Before undertaking any atomizer
maintenance procedure, see "Applicator Assembly
Cleaning Procedure" in the "Maintenance" section.
The applicator barrel MUST be tilted front down
to remove the fluid nozzle. Failure to do so may
allow paint to enter the air passages, thereby re-
ducing airflow and damaging the applicator barrel/
cascade. Applicators may be flushed in lieu of
tilting. However, they must be either flushed or
tilted down during nozzle removal!
• Clean all insulating surfaces in the system. Remove
paint accumulation from the exterior of the applicator
and high voltage cable with a solvent dampened cloth.

† NEVER soak or submerge the electrical compo-
nents of the applicator, i.e., barrel or cable. Damage
and failure may occur.
Daily (or at start of each shift)
•
Verify that ALL solvent safety containers are grounded!
• Check within 20 feet of the point of operation (of the
applicator) and remove or ground ALL loose or un-
grounded objects.
• Inspect work holders for accumulated coating materials
(and remove such accumulations).
•
Check that the atomizer assembly is clean and
undamaged.
† Standard electrode is "snap back" spray
wire electrode.
•
Straighten the applicator electrode if necessary.
• Clean the fluid filter, if used.
• Turn the power supply power ON.
•
Run a current/voltage output test.
Electrical Current Output Test
1. Turn the paint and/or solvent supply OFF.
!
† Paint and/or solvent supply must be turned off
during this test - risk of fire or explosion.
