Certain materials

may

be

harmful

if

inhaled,

chemical reaction caused

by

these

can

become violent and lead

to

an

equipment

Use a mask or

respirator

whenever

there

ls a chance

of

inhaling sprayed materials.

The

mask

must

be

compat-

with

the

material being

sprayed

and its concentra-

tion. Equipment

must

be

as

prescribed

by

an industrial

hygienist or

expert,

and

be

NIOSH

approved.

The

with

these

solvents.

·However,

aluminum

is

widely

used

tn

other

spray application

such

as

Check

a!!

equipment

items before

use

and

make

sure

they

can

also

be

used

safely

with

these

solvents,

Read

the

label

or

for

the

material

you

intend

to

spray.

If

DeVilbiss Air Adjusting Valve

and

Gauge*

This controls the air intet pressure

to

the

gun and directly

affects

paint f!uw and

atomization. The

most

common

cause of

poor gun performance is improper inlet

pressure. Always

~djus'l:

the

inlet pressure

with

the gun

fuliy

triggered.

Note

Local air quality regulations may

limit air cap pressure

to

10

\0,7 bar). (Use optional air cap

test

kH,

see

Pg. 35,

to

confirm cap

pressure.)

When

the

gun

is

not

triggered,

the

gauge

will

read line pressure.

If

there

are

many

sources

of

pressure drop (small diameter

and long air hoses, restrictive quick con*

nects, etc.)

there

may

be

alarge difference

in pressure between triggered mode

and

non-triggered mode. For optimum gun per·

formance,

always

try to eliminate sources

CLEANING· GUN WASHERS

Many

gun washers

don't

adequately clean

paint spray guns. They

may

wash

out

lubrication and

contaminate

the

gun with

dirty,

sticky

solvent. Hand cleaning

of

the

gun

is

therefore recommended.

Local air quality regulations

may

require

the use

of

an

enclosed gun washer and

certain paint solvents.

If

you

have

to

use a

gun washer,

dean

your gun according

to

the following instructions. Read the Safety
