Operating Instructions SATAjet 3000 K RP/HVLP
Warning! Attention!
• Alyways keep the spray gun away from ignition sources, such as open
re, burning cigarettes or non-explosion-proof electronic devices!
• When working with the spray gun, always limit solvents, paints or
other coating media to the quantities which are required for the paint
job! Excessive material must be returned to the designated storage
areas afterwards!
6.3. Personal Protection Equipment
Warning!
• When using, cleaning or maintaining the spray gun, always wear
approved breathing and eye protection equipment as well as suitable
protective gloves, overalls and safety boots!
• When using the spray gun, noise levels of 85 dB(A) may be exceed-
ed. Wear suitable hearing protection!
The painter is not exposed to vibrations while using the spray gun. Repul-
sive forces are minimal.
6.4. Use in Explosive Areas
Ex-sign Equipment cat-
egory
Device category Gas category Temperature level
6.4.1 General
The spray gun is approved for the use / storage in explosive areas of Ex-
Zone 1 and 2.

Operating Instructions SATAjet 3000 K RP/HVLP Operating Instructions SATAjet 3000 K RP/HVLP
Warning! Risk of explosion!
• Do not use solvents and cleaning agents based on halogenised
hydrocarbons! Chemical reaction which may occur when using these
substances may be explosive!
7. Use
Warning! Risk of explosion!
• Use only solvent-resistant, antistatic, undamaged and technically
awless compressed air hoses with a permanent pressure resistance
of minimum 10 bar, e.g. Art. No. 53090!
Note!
The following requirements must be fulfilled:
• Use a compressed air connection G 1/4 male thread or a suitable
SATA connection nipple.
• Ensure minimum compressed air volume (air consumption) and pres-
sure (recommended spray gun inlet pressure) according to chapter 2.
• Clean compressed air, e.g. with SATA lter 100 Art. No. 148247,
outside the spray booth or SATA lter 484, Art. No. 92320 in-
side the spray booth
• Use an air hose with minimum 9 mm internal diameter (see warnings),
e.g. Art. No. 53090.
1. Check if all screws [2-1], [2-2], [2-3], [2-4] and [2-5] have been
tightened rmly. Tighten uid tip [2-1] rmly by hand (14 Nm) accord-
ing to [7-4]. Check if locking screw [2-5] has been rmly tightened
according to [10-1]. Tighten, if necessary.
2. Adjust air cap: vertical spray fan [2-6], horizontal spray fan [2-7].
3. Connect material hose [2-8] of tank or pump, resp. to spray gun ma-
terial connection.
4. Screw connection nipple [2-9] onto the air inlet.
5. Connect compressed air hose [2-10].

7.1. Adjustment of the Spray Gun Inlet Pressure
Note!
• Pull the trigger fully and adjust the spray gun inlet pressure (see
chapter 2) following instructions of one of the followig sections ([3-1],
[3-2], [3-3] to [3-4]), then release the trigger.
• With [3-2], [3-3] and [3-4], the air micrometer [1-8] must be fully
opened/in vertical position.
• If the required spray gun inlet pressure is not reached, the pressure
at the compressed air circuit has to be increased; too high pressure
results in too high trigger forces.
[3-1] SATA adam 2 (accessory / accurate method).
[3-2] Separate gauge with control device (accessory).
[3-3] Separate gauge without control device (accessory).
[3-4] Pressure regulation at the compressed air circuit (most
inaccurate method): rule of thumb: pressure at the pressure re-
ducer must be set 0.6 bar higher than the recommended spray gun
inlet pressure per every 10 m of air hose (inner width 9 mm).
7.2. Adjustment of the Material Flow [4-1], [4-2], [4-3]
und [4-4] - material flow control fully opened
Note!
With the material ow control fully opened, the wear of the uid tip and
paint needle is reduced to a minimum. Please select the correct nozzle
size depending on the material to be applied and the required applica-
tion speed.
Fully pull trigger and adjust required material supply pressure, e.g. at
pressure tank.
7.3. Adjustment of the Spray Fan Pattern
• Adjust at fan (factory setting) [5-1].
• Adjust round fan [5-2].
7.4. Painting
Fully pull trigger for painting [6-1]. Operate spray gun according to [6-2].
Maintain spray distance as described in chapter 2.

8. Cleaning of the Spray Gun
Warning! Attention!
• Prior to cleaning, please disconnect the spray gun from the compressed air
circuit!
• Risk of injury due to unexpected leakage of compressed air or mate-
rial!
• Empty spray gun completely, dispose of paint material appropriately!
• Disassemble and install components very carefully! Exclusively use
included special tools!
• Use neutral cleaning solution (pH value 6 to 8)!*
• Do not use acids, lyes, bases, pickling agents, unsuitable
regenerates or other aggressive cleaning solutions!*
• Do not soak spray gun in cleaning solution!*
• Drillings are to be cleaned with SATA cleaning brushes or SATA nozzle
cleaning needles only. The use of other tools may cause damage or
may affect the spray pattern. Recommended accessory: cleaning kit
Art. No. 64030.
• Exclusively use spray gun washing machines recommended by SATA!
Please observe the operating instructions!
• The air passages have to be pressurised with clean compressed air
during the entire cleaning process!
• Nozzle head has to point downwards!
• Remove the spray gun from the gun washing machine right
after the cleaning process!*
• Never use ultrasonic cleaning devices - leads to damage of noz-
zle components and gun surfaces!
• After cleaning, the spray gun, the material passages, the air
cap including thread have to be blown dry with clean com-
pressed air!*
* otherwise risk of corrosion
Note!
• Check spray pattern after cleaning the nozzle set!
• Further tips concerning cleaning can be found at www.sata.com/TV.

9. Maintenance
Warning! Attention!
• Prior to maintenance, disconnect spray gun from the compressed air
circuit!
• Disassemble and install components very carefully! Exclusively use
included special tools!
9.1. Replacing the Nozzle Set [7-1], [7-2], [7-3], [7-4], [7-5]
and [7-6]
Every SATA nozzle set consists of "paint needle" [7-1], "air cap" [7-2]
and "uid tip" [7-3] and has been hand-adjusted to provide a perfect
spray pattern. Therefore, always exchange the complete nozzle set. After
installation, please adjust material ow according to chapter 7.2.
9.2. Replacing the Air Distribution Ring Steps: [7-1],
[7-2], [7-3], [8-1], [8-2] [8-3], [7-4], [7-5] und [7-6]
Attention!
• Remove air distribution ring with SATA extraction tool only.
• Do not apply force to avoid damage of sealing surfaces.
Note!
Check sealing surfaces inside the spray gun [8-2] after disassembly,
clean them, if required. Should the sealing surfaces be damaged,
please contact your SATA dealer. Align new air distribution ring with the
help of the marking [8-3], (pin must be located in the drilling) and press
in with even force. Adjust material ow according to chapter 7.2 after
installation.
9.3. Replacing the Paint Needle Sealing Steps: [9-1], [9-2]
und [9-3]
When paint material leaks from the self-tensioning paint needle packing, it
needs to be replaced. Remove trigger according to [9.2]. After disassembly,
check if paint needle is damaged or replace the nozzle set, if required. Ad-
just material ow according to chapter 7.2 after installation.

9.4. Replacing the Air Piston, Air Piston Spring
and Air Micrometer Steps: [10-1], [10-2] and [10-3]
Warning!
• Disconnect paint spray gun from the compressed air circuit!
When air leaks from the air cap or the air micrometer without the trigger
being pulled, they need to be replaced. After disassembly, grease the air
micrometer and spring with SATA high performance grease (Art. No.
48173), insert them together with the air piston and tighten the locking
screw [10-1]. Adjust material ow according to chapter 7.2 after installa-
tion.
Warning!
• Check if locking screw [1-9] has been rmly tightened! Air micrometer
[1-8] could shoot out from the spray gun uncontrolled!
9.5. Replacing the Sealing (air side)
Warning!
• Disconnect paint spray gun from the compressed air circuit!
Steps: [9-1], [9-2], [10-1], [10-2], [10-3], [10-4] and [10-5]
Replacing the self-tensioning sealing [10-5] is required when air leaks
from under the trigger.
1. After disassembly, please check air piston rod [10-4] and clean it, if
required. If damaged (e.g. if scratched or bent), replace it and grease
with SATA high performance spray gun grease (Art. No. 48173) and
insert. Please observe correct order of installation!
2. Lubricate air micrometer (air ow control) and spring as well, insert
together with air piston and tighten the locking screw.
After installation, please adjust material ow according to chapter 7.2.
Warning!
• Check if locking screw [1-9] has been rmly tightened! Air micrometer
[1-8] could shoot out from the spray gun uncontrolled!
