Cleanup; Maintenance - WAGNER GM 2600 0179070 Owner's Manual

Cleanup

WARNING
• Release system and spray gun pressure before
cleaning or performing maintenance on the gun.
• Use only the cleaning solvent recommended by the
material manufacturer.
• Never spray into an enclosed vessel (this will create
an explosive gas / air mixture).
NOTE: Do not immerse the spray gun in solvent.
Daily cleaning
1. Flush out the spray gun material tube thoroughly with the
appropriate solvent.
NOTE: When using two component materials more
frequent flushing may be required.
2. Unscrew the tip guard and remove the air cap. Take out
the tip and immerse in the appropriate solvent until all
traces of material are dissolved. Remove the tip and put
into the appropriate solvent for 1 to 2 days until all
material residues are gone.

NOTE: Handle the tip with care. Do not clean it with
sharp metal objects. Use tip cleaning brush
(P/N 9997001) only. If necessary, use
corresponding tip cleaning needle (P/N
8612001, set of 12) for cleaning tip.
4. Clean the spray gun body using a brush.
CAUTION
Hold spray gun downward or horizontal while cleaning the
spray gun. Cleaning solvent must not be allowed to enter
the air channels as this will cause swelling of the O-rings.
