MAINTENANCE

In addition to the above Warning, which relates

to potential safety hazards, the following infor-

mation must be observed to prevent damage to

the equipment.

CLEANING PROCEDURES

O-RINGS

All o-rings in this atomizer are solvent proof ex-

cept the ones on the air bearing spindle. These

o-rings must not be soaked in solvent; if these

are exposed or soaked in solvent, they must

be replaced. These o-rings are engineered to

provide a fit between the air bearing spindle and

it's mating parts to reduce or eliminate harmonic

resonance (vibration).

Some o-rings are encapsulated. These o-rings

have a limited amount of stretch and will not return

to their original diameters if over stretched. These

o-rings are subject to being distorted more easily

than rubber o-rings, so it is important that they

be sufficiently lubricated when mating parts are

installed onto them. They also will take a square

set over time and should be replaced periodically

if mating parts are removed repeatedly or if a new

mating part is installed onto them.

Any o-ring that is cracked, nicked, or distorted

must be replaced.

A suitable lubricant is food grade petroleum jell or

A11545-00 Petrolatum Jell.

>

DO NOT immerse the RMA-303 tur-

bine in solvent or other liquids. Turbine

components will be damaged and warranty

will be voided.

>

Bearing air must be on during all clean-

ing procedures to protect the air bearing

components.

>

Electrical shock and fire hazards can

exist during maintenance. Micro-Pak

supply must be turned off before enter-

ing the spray area and performing any

maintenance procedures on the atomizer.

Spray booth fans should re-main on while

cleaning with solvents.

>

Never touch the atomizer bell while it is

spinning. The front edge of the bell can

easily cut into human skin or cut through

gloves and other materials. Be sure the

atomizer bell has stopped spin-ning before

attempting to touch it. Approximate time

for the bell to stop spinning after turning

off turbine drive air is three minutes.

>

Insure high voltage is off during any

manual cleaning procedure.
