When installing or removing the fluid
>
nozzle, the gun MUST be triggered. Failure
to do so may cause damage to the electrode
or fluid nozzle. Such damage can result in
fluid leaks around the sealing area of these
components.
Using any tool other than the ITW
>
Ransburg multi-purpose applicator wrench
to remove or install the fluid nozzle may
cause damage.
For efficient electrostatic operation, keep the
applicator's exterior and low voltage cable free of
paint accumulation. This prevents the loss of
voltage to ground with a resultant reduction in
transfer efficiency. Paint accumulation in and
around the air cap nozzles will reduce atomization
quality. Clean the air cap using clean solvent and
a soft bristle brush as often as needed to ensure
good atomization.
