Pressurizing Fluids:
The SystemOne Gelcoater Unit is standard with a safety override valve.
This valve opens and closes the air supply to the resin pump air motor.
The valve will be opened when the gun trigger is opened or when the
priming button is pushed down.
1. Push down on the priming button and slowly increase gelcoat pump
regulator, 40 to 50 psi would be a starting point.
2. Using the slide drive arm, use slow up and down motion to
pressurize the catalyst pump. There should be a uniform gain in
resistance between up and down strokes.
3. Pin the pivot pin into the slide arm. Set catalyst percentage.
Gun Set-Up:
1. Install turbulent mixer into mix chamber. Insert static mixer and spray
tip onto the air assist housing. Screw air-assist unto the gun mix
housing. For longer turbulent mixer life, do not over tighten the air
assist nozzle housing. Attach short air assist house from needle
valve on side of gun handle to air-assist head.
2. Test spray pattern, make gelcoat pump pressure adjustment until a
fairly uniform pattern is achieved. Slowly open the air-assist needle
valve located on the side of the gun handle until a soft uniform
pattern is achieved.
NOTE
On the air manifold, the blue valve is the safety override. The
small brass button next to the valve is the priming button.
NOTE
Remove catalyst quick pin before pressurizing gelcoat pump.
