2.
Empty coating material into a suitable
container and clean the gun and cup,
preferably in a gun wash machine.

IMPORTANT– the cup must not be
cleaned or rubbed with a dry cloth
or paper. It is possible to generate a
static charge, by rubbing, which if
discharged to an earthed object
could create an incendive spark and
cause solvent vapours to ignite.

Remove air cap (2) and clean. If any of
the holes in the cap are blocked with
coating material only use the Cleaning
Kit KK-4584 (see accessories) which
has the correct tools for this or a
toothpick to clean. Using any other tool
could damage the cap and produce
distorted spray patterns.

Ensure the tip of the nozzle is clean
and free from damage. Build up of
