WARNING
Please observe all warnings before performing any maintenance
Follow the pressure relief procedures in this manual.
Use proper safety gear, gloves and safety glasses.
Clean all tools to be used for repair of grease or other material that can react with the
material being pumped.
1.
Turn all the regulators to zero (all the way counter clock wise) before connecting
the main air supply and make sure the main air inlet valve is closed.
2.
Connect air supply to system which requires 90 - 100 psi supply (6-7bar) 5 CFM
of clean dry air. Open the main air inlet valve in one fast stroke.
Note: the main air supply inlet valve is a safety ball valve and must be all the way
closed or all the way open. When the ball valve is closed the air pressure
remaining in the air manifold and air system will be released.
3. Check for air leaks and repair as necessary.
4.
Fill solvent container (no more then 2/3 full) with desired solvent, non-flammable
solvents are recommended. Pressurize container from 40 to 60 psi (3-4 bar)
with air regulator located on the flush tank. Check for solvent leaks and repair as
needed.
5. The Air Purge regulator should also be set at 40 to 60 psi (3-4 bar). This
regulator sets the air pressure used to air purge the gun and mixer.
6. Located on the hose set by the gun is a 3-way ball valve. Rotate the ball valve
handle to the flush position which is the direction pointing to the yellow tubing.
Test solvent flush by pushing flush buttons located on either side of the gun
block. Rotate the ball valve handle to the direction of the clear tubing; push the
flush buttons to air purge the mixer housing. Always rotate the ball valve handle
to the neutral position (center) when flushing/air purge is complete.
