3. AIR SUPPLY
3.1. Ensure the air valve is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.2. You will require an air pressure of approximately 70psi and an air volume of more than 12cfm to operate the gun.
3.3. F WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean does not exceed 90psi. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the
life of the gun due to excessive wear and may be dangerous, causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.4. Drain the air supply tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the gun and contaminate the paint.
3.5. Clean the compressor air inlet filter weekly. For recommended hook-up, see diagram.
3.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually
long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter
should be 10mm I.D. and fittings must have the same
inside dimensions.
3.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp
edges. Check hoses for wear, and make
certain that all connections are secure.
4. PREPARATION
The gun was treated with an anti-corrosion agent to protect it prior to first use. Before first use make sure that the gun is flushed with paint
solvent to remove the agent.
F WARNING! Solvents and cleaning agents based on halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g. 1.1.1-trichlorethylene and methylene chloride, may have
a chemical reaction with the aluminium components of the gun. In extreme cases the reaction can be explosive. Therefore, use only
solvents/cleaning agents which DO NOT contain these substances.
