Introduction:
The Pro Gun is an air trigger gun; meaning when the trigger is pulled an air cylinder
pushes on the actuator stem and rotates the gun block into the on position. The Pro
Gun works very similar to a dual ball valve in that the valve rod rotates and the catalyst
and resin holes line up with the ports in the gun block allowing material to flow. The
actuator is an air cylinder and as the piston moves back and forth it rotates the valve rod
90 degrees to the ON or OFF position.
Generally, the Pro Gun ™ will not need to be completely disassembled for daily
cleaning. However, the entire gun should be disassembled and the o-rings and seals
replaced approximately every six months to a year depending on use and material
being used.
Disassembling the Pro Gun™ is easy; the gun breaks down into four separate modules
which are then disassembled further into their individual parts. A special tool kit, which
includes a specially designed Pro Gun
™ tool, is available to aid in performing
maintenance and repair.
Note: The subtle differences between the Pro Gun
™ used for chopping, gel
coating and pour applications are noted at appropriate places in this manual.
