  • Page 8: Proper Needle/Nozzle Selection

    Selection Charts Proper Needle/Nozzle Selection The spray gun's needle/nozzle kits range in size to pro- vide different fluid flow rates. As a general guideline, use the fluid nozzle that will give the required flow with the needle fully triggered at a fluid pressure of 5-20 psi (0.035 MPa, 3.5 bar - 0.14 MPa.

    Installation Installation The Automatic XT spray guns were designed to produce the highest quality finish with today's fluids as well as the low V.O.C. (volatile organic compound) fluids of tomorrow. This spray gun can spray most coatings or finishes cur- rently being used for automotive, industrial, aerospace, marine, wood, plastic and architectural applications, while easily operating from paint delivery systems, such...

    Install Air Fittings 1. Install the supplied 1/4 in. tube fitting into the cylin- der (CYL) air port. 2. Install 3/8 in. tube fittings into the atomization (ATOM) air port and the fan (FAN) air port. . 4: Air Fittings Ground System The following grounding instructions are minimum requirements for a system.
  • Page 12: Mount Gun

    Installation Mount Gun Reciprocating Arm Rod Mount To mount the gun on a reciprocating arm rod [0.5 in. (13 mm) diameter maximum]: 1. Insert the mounting bar (A) through the hole in the manifold as shown in F . 5. Use the 1/8 in.
  • Page 13: Setup

    Setup Connect Air Line You must install an air pressure regulator (F) on each gun air line to control air pressure to the gun. See F . 8. If your regulated air source does not have a filter, install an air filter (G) on each air line to ensure a dry, clean air supply to the gun.

  • Page 15: Adjust Spray Pattern

    Adjust Spray Pattern Do not exceed 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) maximum fluid and air pressure. Higher pressures can cause parts to rupture and result in serious injury. The spray gun fluid flow is controlled by the fluid pres- sure regulator and the fluid control knob.
  • Page 16 Setup . 13: Air Pressure Regulator 3. Test the spray pattern atomization while keeping the gun a consistent distance, about 6 to 8 inches (150 to 200 mm), from the test piece. Check the atomization quality. Increase the gun atomizing air supply pressure with the air pressure regulator in 5 psi (34 kPa, 0.3 bar) increments until you obtain the desired atomization.
  • Page 17: Operation

    Operation Pressure Relief Procedure 1. Turn off all bleed type air valves and all other air and fluid supplies to the gun. 2. Trigger the gun into a grounded metal waste con- tainer to relieve air and fluid pressure. . 14: Pressure Relief Apply Fluid The spray gun has a built-in lead and lag operation.
  • Page 18: Daily Gun Care

    Daily Gun Care Daily Gun Care CAUTION Methylene chloride with formic or propionic acid is not recommended as a flushing or cleaning solvent with this gun as it will damage aluminum and nylon compo- nents. Solvent left in gun air passages could result in a poor quality paint finish. Do not use any cleaning method which may allow solvent into the gun air passages.
  • Page 19: General System Maintenance

    General System Maintenance • Perform Pressure Relief Procedure, page 17. • Clean the fluid and air line filters daily. • Check for any fluid leakage from the gun and fluid hoses. Tighten fittings or replace equipment as needed. • Flush the gun before changing colors and whenever you are done operating the gun.
  • Page 20: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Check all possible remedies in the troubleshooting charts before disassembling the gun. Some improper patterns are caused by the improper balance between air and fluid. Refer to Spray Pattern Troubleshooting, page 22. General Troubleshooting Problem Fluid leakage through venting holes. Air leakage through venting hole.
  • Page 21 Problem Fluid needle will not trigger. Fluid does not shut off. 311051D Cause Loose or missing fluid needle stop (29) or setscrew (30). Air leaking around piston (3). Swollen piston o-ring (8). Insufficient air pressure on trigger. Plug (19) is in incorrect fluid port. Worn o-ring (11) or (9).
  • Page 22: Spray Pattern Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting Spray Pattern Troubleshooting Problem Fluid flow is fluttering while spraying. Fluid nozzle is not tight enough. Fluid flow fades while spraying high viscosity fluids. Pattern becomes off-set of heavy on ends. Gun fluid pressure is too high with gun triggered. Fluid system will not operate at low enough fluid pressure [below 10 psi (70 kPa, 0.7 bar)].
