Gun Washer Shutdown and Care

WARNING

PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD

To reduce the risk of an injury from accidental

spray, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the

Pressure Relief Procedure, covered in steps 1

and 2 below, when you shut down the gun washer

and before you check, clean, or service any of the

system equipment.

1. Disconnect the air supply.

2. Drain the solvent from the gun washer tank daily,

when you shut down the system. Place a proper

solvent container under the fluid drain valve on the

bottom of the tank and open the fluid drain valve.

WARNING

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

The PRO-Wash gun washer is classified

as a temporary storage container. To re-

duce the risk of fire or explosion, be sure

to drain the solvent into a proper storage

container and store it according to the

local code for flammable liquids when

shutting down your system.

3. Wipe the inside of the tank with a cloth or use a

brush to remove any built-up paint residue.

4. Thoroughly clean the gun washer filter (item 12 in

the Parts Drawings) with a brush.

5. Change the solvent completely when it is no longer

thoroughly cleaning the painting equipment. If the

gun washer is being filled with old solvent, be sure

to filter the solvent before filling the gun washer

tank.

NOTE: If the solvent is thoroughly filtered daily to

remove paint residue, it can usually be reused for 2 to

8 weeks (depending on gun washer usage).

WARNING

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion,

always clean-up any solvent leaks or

spills immediately. Repair any leaking

components before operating the gun

washer again.
