7 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE (FIG. G.)
Always remember to disconnect from the mains supply before cleaning the
spray gun or paint container.
It is essential that the spray gun is cleaned thoroughly after every use. Failure to clean it will
almost certainly result in blockages and it may not operate when you next come to use it! The
guarantee does not cover cleaning a sprayer that has not been properly cleaned by the user.
7.1 The following action must be taken after every use.
Empty any remaining material from the container.
Clean the container thoroughly with the thinner that was used.
Pour some thinner into the container and spray through the spray gun until only clean
thinner is coming out of the nozzle.
Thoroughly clean the paint pick up pipe and filter with thinner.
Clean the basket and nozzle and remove any other debris or paint that remains.
Turn the spray gun upside down and apply a few drops of light oil to the two apertures (F).
This will lubricate the piston and cylinder.
If your spray gun should require extra internal cleaning, it may be necessary to disassemble it.
If so the following actions should be taken.
Remove the plug from the mains socket.
Remove paint container, pick up pipe and filter.
Take off the pump assembly.
Release the nozzle (H), valve (J), piston (K) and spring (L)
Clean the cylinder (M) and all parts thoroughly with solvent.
Apply a few drops of light lubricating oil to the piston, spring and cylinder.
Reassemble the spray gun.
8 MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the machine is not live when carrying out maintenance work
on the motor.
Our machines have been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper machine care and
regular cleaning.
8.1 Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent overheating of the engine. Regularly
clean the machine housing with soft cloth, preferably after each use. Keep the ventilation slots
free from dust and dirt. If the dirt does not come off use a soft cloth moistened with soapy
water. Never use solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc. These solvents may
damage the plastic parts
8.2 Lubrication
The machine requires no additional lubrication.
