Step 5 : Assemble the Nozzle Tip and the Nozzle Cap Nut
as the picture on the right.
When assembling Nozzle Tip after disconnecting and cleaning the nozzle,
Please make sure the Nozzle Tip’s alignment.
Failure to do this will result in the pretreat not being sprayed properly on the shirt.
NEVER LEAVE THE FILTER EXPOSED TO AIR.
Doing so will cause the filter to be clogged.
The filter is a consumable part and will need to be replaced every two months.
If your machine is not spraying liquid, check to see if the filter is clogged.
Simply removed the filter from the end of the inlet tube and start spraying.
If spraying occurs after the filter is removed, then we can conclude filter is clogged
and will need to be replaced.
