How to connect
・Use clean air filtered through air dryer and air filter. ······ If not, dirty air can cause painting failure.
・Before using the spray gun for the first time, clean fluid passages with thinner to remove rust preventive oil.
If not cleaned, the rust preventive oil can cause paint failure, suchas fish eyes.
・Firmly connect hose or cup to spray gun. ······ If not, disconnection of hose or drop of cup can causebodily injury.
Step1. Connect an airhose to air nipple tightly.
Step2. Connect a fluid hose or a container to fluid nipple tightly.
Step3. Flushthe spray gun fluid passage with a compatiblesolvent.
Step4. Pour adhesiveinto container, test spray and adjust fluid output as well as pattern width.

Maintenance and inspection
・First release air and pressure fully according to item No. 3of “Improper use of equipment” of WARNINGon page 2.
・Only an experienced person who is fully knowledgeable of the equipmentshould perform maintenance and inspection.
・
value shallbe 6 to 8, otherwise could cause corrosion.

Step-by-step procedure
to another container. Clean fluid passages and
Spray asmall amount of thinner into fluid passages to clean them.
Incomplete cleaningcanresultin poorspra
ypattern and contaminated adhesive
It is especially important clean the gun fully and promptly after using two-component
adhesive.
Clean each section with br
ush soaked with thinner and wipe out with wastecloth.
Soaking whole spray gun in solvent may cause spray gun malfunction.
cap assy. itself for extended period may cause a defective spray pattern.
When cleaning, never scratch the air cap assy., fluid nozzle, or fluid needle.
Avoid touching or damaging the tip of the fluid nozzleorneedle.
3. Before disassembly,fully cleanfluid passages.
Remove fluid nozzle, using a ring spanner, box wrench or optional accessory spanner
(code 93538601)
3. During disassembly,avoid scratching the needleseatingsurface.
Either first remove the fluid needleor hold the trigger back while removing the fluid nozzle,
to protect the seating surface.
If you need to adjust fluid needle packing set, first tighten it by hand (with fluid needle in
place). Thentightenitfurtherabout1/6turn (60-degree) by spanner.
When you remove needle packing set, do not leave the plastic tip of the packing in the
spray gunbody.
If you tighten the fluid needle packing set too much, fluid needle will not m
resulting in adhesive leakage from tip of the fluid nozzle. Try to adjust it carefully while
pulling the trigger and confirming smooth movement of the fluid needle.
If you tighten it too much, first fully loosen it and then retighten again carefully.
5. To assemble the air valve, first assemble the air valve, air valve spring, and fluid adj. guide
assy. together. Next, insert fluid needle into fluid adj. guide assy., then fit it to spray gun
body andscrewfluid adj.guide assy.in.
If you try to fit air valve spring and air
valve to the spray gun body without the fluid
needle, the air valve may not be fitted correctly and the packing inside fluid adj. guide
assy.can be damaged.
6. Before assembling the pattern adj. assy. or air adj. assy. back on to the gun body, fully turn
the adjustment knobs counterclockwise to open. Once in the gun body the pattern adj.
knob and air adj. knobcanbe tightened.
6. If pattern adj. knob or air adj. knob is not fully opened when tightening into gun body, the tip
of it can contactand damage the seating surface.
7. When you assemble the needle spring on the fluid needle, the plastic tipshould be on the
oppositesideas thefluid needletip.
7. If plastic tip is on the wrong side, it may not operate normally.Incorrect installation of the
needle spring may cause aheavytrigger pull.

2. Packingand Oring Replaceifitisdeformed or wornout.
3. Leakage from seating surfacebetween fluidnozzleandfluid needle Replacethem if leakage does not stop after fully cleaning the fluid nozzle and needle.
If you replace the fluid nozzle or fluid needle only, ensure they fully matchand confirm that
