Weekly Maintenance
(Prior to Start or End of Production Week)
• Monitor rotational speed of all bells at the
speed control.
• Monitor high voltage and current output indi-
cated on the MicroPak display.
• Check paint flow on all bells at minimum and
maximum specified settings by taking bea-
kered readings.
• Check solvent flow by opening solvent valve
and taking a beakered reading (should be
within approx. 10% of target flow rate).
• Paint residue found in the shaping air holes
is not acceptable and must be removed prior
to applicator use (see "Cleaning Shaping Air
Holes" in the "Maintenance" section).
• Remove protective cover from outer housing
and discard. Clean any paint on outer sur-
face of front and rear housing with soft cloth
damp ened with solvent. (See "Warning" on
previous page, on avoiding the use of clean-
ing solvent containing d-Limonene.)
• Remove the front shroud and check for any
signs of solvent or paint leakage. Clean as
required or repair as required.
• Remove bell cup and soak in solvent for 1-2
hours. Clean with a soft brush as required.
Remove from cleaning solution and blow dry
before replacing.
NOTE
>
It may be necessary to remove the bell
cups for cleaning more frequently than
weekly. (See Note under "Daily Mainte-
nance" in the "Maintenance" section.)

In the event the bell cup comes in
contact with a part, that cup should be
checked for damage and replaced if
necessary before continuing to spray.
!
• With bearing air off, carefully inspect the feed
tube tip and clean any paint build-up that has
occurred on the feed tube tip. Using a pen
light, determine if there is build-up of paint in
the motor shaft and/or around the paint feed
tube. If so, remove the motor assembly fol-
lowing the disassembly procedures and clean
out the inside diameter of the motor shaft us-
ing a tube brush and solvent. Clean the outer
surfaces of the feed tube.
>
Maximum flow rate should not ex-
ceed 700 cc/min.
>
Daily removal and soaking of the
bell cup may not be required if the bell
cup is properly flushed. However, the
frequency of the feed tube and internal
motor shaft inspection indicated below
under weekly maintenance can be done
daily and later adjusted to weekly or as
required depending on the results of the
inspection.
