  • Page 3: For Your Safety

    For Your Safety Please read and follow all the technical and safety instructions in this manual. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or property damage. While all the safety precautions in the manual are very important, you should not consider them to be as cure-all.
  • Page 4 WARNING For correct use of the product Never use acids, corrosive materials and halogenated hydrocarbon-based solvents for the product covered by this manual. If you have any doubt about the intended use or materials of the product, please consult us. The use of the product under conditions other than specified above is always considered as misuse and may lead to an accident unless our special approval has been obtained.
  • Page 5 WARNING <<Safety devices for the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun>>  The air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun is equipped with safety devices. Correctly use them.  Whenever using the gun, check that all of the safety devices correctly function. □...
  • Page 6 WARNING Danger of the misuse <<General safety notes>> An excessive pressure, modifications to the parts, the misuse of the paint or solvent or the use of a worn or broken part may lead to damage to the pump, injury from the paint spray or splashes into your eyes or skin and/or serious disasters such as fire and explosion.
  • Page 7 WARNING <<Compatibility of the paint, solvent and compressed air>> This system cannot be used for electrostatic coating with a conductive paint such as water-soluble one. Check that the paint and solvent to be used are compatible with the “materials of part of the pump that is in contact with the fluid.”...
  • Page 8 WARNING Possibility of fire or explosion <<Sources of ignition>> Static electricity is generated when the paint runs through the pump or hose. If parts of the coating machine are not appropriately grounded, electrostatic sparks may be generated to ignite the volatile component of a solvent, sprayed paint mist, suspending debris or other combustible substance, possibly resulting in serious injury or damage to the machine.
  • Page 9 WARNING □ Grounding of the paint hose  Use a securely grounded paint hose. When using an extension paint hose, check that it has been securely grounded. See the section “For safety of the hose” (on page 5). □ Grounding of the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun The air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun firmly connected with the correctly grounded hose and paint pump is considered to be sufficiently grounded.
  • Page 10 WARNING <<Solvents>> The solvent used for cleaning shall have a flash point not lower than 38°C and equivalent to or higher than that of the paint to be used. A halogenated hydrocarbon-based solvent may explode if it is brought into contact with an aluminum or plated part in a pressure vessel (e.g.

  • Page 12: Installation

    Installation [Connecting the controller and paint pump] See the example of system construction on page 29. Before starting operation, be sure to read thoroughly the Operation and Maintenance Manuals for controller and paint pump. ① Connecting to the connecting cable Correctly connect the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun to the attached connecting cable.
  • Page 13 Firmly connect the cable to the gun with hand. After connecting, lock it using stopper. If the cable is not in right position, do not connect it forcibly but unscrew the nut so as to bring its hexagonal flat into close contact with the stopper for proper connection.
  • Page 14 ④ Connecting to the paint hose In order to connect the paint hose, connect the hose joint on the electrostatic spray gun and that at the paint outlet of the paint pump. (Connect 3, 5m long and 6, 5m long hoses using an intermediate joint into a 10m long hose.) WARNING Be sure to check the paint hose for loose connections.
  • Page 15 ⑥ Caution in bundling and handling the connecting cable CAUTION (1) When bundling the electrostatic spray gun connecting cable and hoses, follow the instructions below, in order not to impair the strength and service life of the connecting cable. ① Do not bundle the connecting cable and hoses at points within about 70cm from the electrostatic spray gun.
  • Page 16 [Installing and removing the air wrap airless electrostatic spray nozzle] When installing the air wrap airless electrostatic spray nozzle, engage it with the air cap with the notch on the nozzle aligned with the locating pin on the air cap and firmly tighten it to the gun barrel with a retaining nut.
  • Page 17: Precautions Before Operation

    Precautions Before Operation WARNING There is a possibility of fire or explosion. Check that the devices, equipment and floor in the coating workshop and the parts of hangers that are in contact with the product to be coated are free from deposited paint.
  • Page 18: Operation Procedure

    Operation Procedure ① Preparation of paint This system can be used for electrostatic coating with almost all types of synthetic resin paints except some types of paints. It is not necessary to specially prepare a paint by mixing. However, some paints require adjustment using a solvent to improve the electrostatic coating effect. Also note that a sufficient electrostatic coating effect cannot be expected from some paints with an extremely low electric resistance.
  • Page 19 (4) Check the coating machine and hose joints for paint leakage. Set the operating pressure to between 2MPa and 16MPa. WARNING The maximum operating paint pressure for this gun is 21MPa. Never use it with a paint pressure exceeding 21MPa. Doing so may damage the gun or lead to injury or other accidents from the ejected paint.
  • Page 20: Maintenance

    (2) If you want to suspend the work longer than 24 hours: CAUTION When using a two-component paint or other paint that cures by chemical action or paint that settles easily, clean the gun with the following procedure after each use.
  • Page 21 ② Electrostatic spray nozzle (1) Keep the electrostatic spray nozzle clean. When cleaning the nozzle, carefully wipe out using a bristle brush or cloth soaked with a small amount of solvent. WARNING There is a possibility of electric shock or injury. When cleaning or replacing the nozzle, first turn off the power switch on the controller and, five seconds after that, check that the indicator lamp has been off.
  • Page 22: Nozzle Selection And Precautionary Notes

    Nozzle Selection and Precautionary Notes (1) Select a nozzle for the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun from the table below according to the discharge rate and pattern width (adjustable) determined by the conditions of use. (2) The nozzle is made of cemented carbide, which is very hard but easily chipped and, therefore, shall not be exposed to a strong impact.
