Installation
The Automatic XT spray guns were designed to produce
the highest quality finish with today's fluids as well as
the low V.O.C. (volatile organic compound) fluids of
tomorrow.
This spray gun can spray most coatings or finishes cur-
rently being used for automotive, industrial, aerospace,
marine, wood, plastic and architectural applications,
while easily operating from paint delivery systems, such
as pressure pots or remote pumps for production line
operation.
The air regulator must have a minimum air flow capacity
of 30 scfm at 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) air pressure.

Configure Gun and Manifold
The gun is supplied with an internal fluid plug and seals
(19, 20, 21). To use the gun in a circulating system,
remove the internal plug. In a non-circulating system,
leave the plug in place to minimize flush time.
Circulating System
1. Apply anti-seize lubricant to the threads and mating
faces of the manifold (101) and the elbows (107),
supplied unassembled.
2. Install the elbows (107) in both fluid ports of the
manifold (101).
3. Connect the fluid supply line to one elbow and the
fluid return line to the other. The manifold fluid ports
are reversible.
4. Install the gun on the manifold, using the four
screws (13). Start the threads of all four screws.
Tighten the front two screws first, and then tighten
the back two. Torque all four screws evenly to 65
in-lb (7.3 N•m).
Non-circulating System
1. See F IG . 3. See Apply anti-seize lubricant 222955 to
the threads and mating faces of the manifold (101),
plug (109), and elbow (107), supplied unassembled.
2. Install an elbow (107) in one fluid port of the mani-
fold (101), and a plug (109) in the other port.
3. Install the internal plug (5) in the gun fluid port on
the same side as the manifold plug.
4. Connect the fluid supply line to the fluid inlet elbow
(107).
5. Install the gun on the manifold, using the four
screws (13). Start the threads of all four screws.
Tighten the front two screws first, and then tighten
the back two. Torque all four screws evenly to 65
in-lb (7.3 N•m).
Check and follow all National, State, and Local
codes regarding air exhaust velocity requirements.
Check and follow all local safety and fire codes.
