6. TROUBLESHOOTING
Dried material in a dirty side port restricts passage of air. Greater
flow of air from the cleaner side port forces a fan pattern in the
direction of the clogged side.
Dried material around the outside of the fluid nozzle tip restricts
the passage of atomizing air at one point through the centre
opening of the air nozzle and results in the pattern shown. This
pattern can also be caused by a loose air nozzle.
Material to thin or atomization air pressure too high.
Dirt between the fluid nozzle seat and body or loosely installed
fluid nozzle will cause the gun to spit.
Material bubbles or “boils” in paint cup. Atomised air flowing through the paint channel to pot.
The paint nozzle is not tight enough. Air nozzle is not completely
screwed in. The air net clogged and the seat is defective or
nozzle insert is damaged.
Tighten, clean or replace parts accordingly.
Dissolve material in the side ports with solvent, then blow the gun clean.
Do not poke into the opening with metal instruments.
Remove the air nozzle and wipe off fluid tip using a rag dampened with
solvent. Tighten the air nozzle
Regulate material viscosity or reduce air pressure
Remove the fluid nozzle, clean the back of the nozzle and the nozzle
seat in the gun body using a rag dampened with thinner. Replace the
nozzle and secure it tightly against the body.
VIEW OF PROBLEM POSSIBLE REASON FOR PROBLEM SOLUTION
A faulty spray is usually cause by improper cleaning or dried material around the fluid nozzle tip or in the air nozzle. Soak these parts in a
solvent that will soften the dried material and remove with a brush or a cloth. Never use metal instruments to clean the air or fluid nozzles.
These parts are carefully machined and any damage to them will cause a faulty spray. If either the air nozzle or fluid nozzle is damaged, the
part must be replaced before a perfect spay can be obtained.
