VIBRATION NOISE
If the RMA-303 is vibrating or making an unu-
sually loud noise, it usually means there is an
imbalance situation. The atomizer bell cup
may have dried paint on it or the bell may be
physically damaged, or there may be paint
trapped between the bell cup and shaft pre-
venting the bell cup from properly seating. If
any of these conditions exist, they MUST be
corrected. Excessive imbalance caused by
one of these conditions may result in bearing
damage and turbine failure. Warranty DOES
NOT
cover failure caused by imbalanced load-
ing conditions.
To determine if the bell is dirty or damaged,
remove the bell cup and turn the turbine ON.
If the noise is eliminated, the bell cup is the
problem. If the noise continues, the turbine
may be damaged and should be inspected.
Excessive air required to achieve same speed
may indicate a faulty or contaminated turbine.
DO NOT
continue to operate a noisy turbine.
> If a bell cup comes off a rotating shaft be-
cause of motor seizing or any other reason,
the Atomizer and bell cup must be returned to
Ransburg for inspection and evaluation to de-
termine if the bell can be used in operation.
TURBINE MAINTENANCE
DO NOT attempt to rebuild the turbine. Any
endeavor to disassemble a turbine during
the warranty period will void the warranty.
Contact your authorized distributor or
Ransburg for instructions.
