Attention!
Damage from incorrect cleaning tool
Never use unsuitable objects to clean clogged holes. Even the tiniest
damage can influence the spray pattern.

Note!
In rare cases, it may be necessary to dismantle some parts of the spray
gun to clean them thoroughly. If dismantling should be necessary, this
should be limited just to the parts whose function brings them in contact
with the material.
