(Accessory)
Return Tube Kit 238884 is available as an accessory. The
kit must be ordered separately. Refer to the sheet (406358)
packed with the kit for installation instructions.
Air Requirements
For continuous use, the 3/4 HP (550 W) agitator air
motor typically requires 3 to 4 cfm (0.09 to 0.12 m3/min)
air supply.
Air Line Accessories
A bleed-type air shutoff valve (SV) is required; it isolates
the air line components for servicing. The air shutoff
valve should be installed in the supply line and can be
used to stop and start the agitator. If the valve is used to
stop and start the agitator, you do not need to set the
agitator speed each time it is used.
Order air shutoff valves by the part numbers listed
below:
110223 1/4” npt(f) x 1/4” npt(f)
110224 3/8” npt(f) x 3/8” npt(f)
113333 3/8” npt(m) x 3/8” npt(f)
Optionally, attach a quick disconnect air line fitting and
coupler. To order the 1/8” npt(m) air line fitting, order part
number 169969. To order the coupler, order part number
208536.
Install an air line filter (AF) to remove harmful dirt and
moisture from the air supply. To order an air line filter,
order part number 106148 (3.8” npt, 20–micron element,
5 oz. Bowl, without gauge).
Downstream from the filter, install an air line lubricator
(AL) for automatic air motor lubrication. Set the
lubricator feed rate at 1 drop of oil per minute for high
speed or continuous duty usage. Do not overfeed oil or
exhaust air may become contaminated. To manually
lubricate the air motor, see Lubricate the Air Motor on
page 11. To order a 3/8” npt air line lubricator, order part

Operation
Find the Proper Agitator Speed
NOTE: Attach ground wire before using agitator.
1. Fill the fluid supply container to about 3–4 inches (75–
100 mm) above the agitator blade.
2. Start the agitator, and gradually increase the speed by
turning the needle valve (14) until a vortex begins to
form in the paint.
3. Reduce the speed slightly, then fill the fluid
container. Use the lowest agitator speed needed for
thorough agitation of the paint. Excessive agitator
speed may cause the paint to foam.
Pressure Relief Procedure
1. Close the bleed-type air shutoff valve (SV) to relieve
pressure to the air motor.
2. Disconnect the air line.
Shutdown
To stop the agitator, close off the air supply with the
needle valve (23) and close the bleed-type shut off
valve (SV), or disconnect the air line coupler.
Moving parts, such as an impeller blade, can cut or
amputate fingers. To reduce the risk of serious injury,
always shut off the agitator and disconnect the air line
before checking or repairing the agitator.
NOTICE
Always maintain moderate agitator speed, which is
approximately 50 rpm of the agitator blades.
Excessive agitator speed may cause vibration,
foaming of fluid, and increased wear on parts. Always
agitate fluid thoroughly before supplying it to the
dispensing equipment. Continue agitating fluid while
the dispensing equipment is being supplied.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure
Relief Procedure before cleaning, checking, or
servicing the equipment.
NOTICE
Keep the agitator upright. Do not lay it on its side or
upside down, or liquid may flow down the shaft and
into the gear reducer area causing damage.

Maintenance
308609V 11
Maintenance
Flush the Air Motor
If the air motor is sluggish or inefficient, follow this
procedure.
1. Disconnect the air line and muffler (22). See Parts
on page 16.
2. Add several teaspoons of non-flammable solvent, or
spray the solvent directly into the male
quick-disconnect coupler (24).
NOTE: The recommended solvent for air motors
and lubricated pumps is Gast®Flushing Solvent
(Gast part number AH255 or AH255A) or Penetone
Inhibisol®Safety Solvent.
3. Reconnect the air line, and slowly increase the air
pressure until there is no trace of solvent in the
exhaust air.
4. Reconnect the muffler (22).
5. Re-lubricate the motor with a squirt of lightweight oil
into the male quick-disconnect coupler (24).
Lubricate the Air Motor
If an air line lubricator is not installed, the air motor must
be manually lubricated every 8 hours. Lubricate the
agitator air motor by placing 10–20 drops of SAE #10
light oil in the motor’s air inlet. Oil must have an
auto-ignition rating of 365°F (185°C) or greater. Run the
agitator for about 30 seconds.
Agitator Blades
Regularly check the agitator for dried material buildup.
Clean using a rag soaked in solvent that is compatible
with the spray material and the surfaces being cleaned.
Additionally, extra precautions need to be taken if using
lower conductive materials (<1000 pS/m) such as:
• Avoid stirring/mixing at high speeds.
• Avoid insoluble mixtures.
• When possible, increase the material conductivity
with additives.
• Use liquids with a high conductivity (>1000 pS/m).
Do not use kerosene or other flammable solvents to
flush the air motor. Flushing with flammable solvents
could cause fire or explosion and result in serious
injury or property damage.
Hazardous fluids or toxic fumes can cause serious
injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin,
swallowed, or inhaled. When flushing the air motor:
• Perform the procedure in a well ventilated area.
• Keep your face away from the exhaust port.
• Wear the appropriate protective clothing, gloves,
eyewear, and respirator.
NOTICE
Not lubricating the air motor will cause air motor
failure.
Materials can become electrostatically charged when
stirred or blended. To prevent fire and explosion,
ground equipment and do not allow material to build
up on agitator. Dried material could allow static build
up and interfere with grounding.

Maintenance
12 308609V
Clean the Agitator Shaft and
Seal
If any material is on the shaft (6) within 1/2 in. (13 mm)
of the housing (13), it must be removed to prevent
damage to the bearing seal (14*). If the flexible lips on
the bearing seal are torn or worn such that they do not
make contact all the way around the shaft, the seal must
be replaced. A worn seal may allow foreign material into
the bearing and cause premature failure. See Service
the Gear Reducer on page 13 for instructions on
getting access to the seal and for the Bearing
Replacement Kit part number.
Clean an Agitator with a
Siphon Kit
The procedure for flushing and cleaning the siphon tube
(50) and agitator shaft (6) is as follows:
1. Raise the agitator out of the drum.
2. Remove the plain bearing (53) from the agitator
shaft (6), and clean it.
3. Detach any attachments from the siphon tube, and
flush the siphon tube.
4. Loosen the retaining nut (52), and slowly lift the
