2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATIONS
The SM2399 is a compact unit suitable for small body shop use. The tank is robustly manufactured, and features an air extraction, stainless steel
wash tank with brass distribution bars. A self reciprocating pump delivers up to 12 ltrs / min with an air input pressure of 75-100psi and consumes
approx 4/7cfm. This ensures a high volume of solvent is delivered through the spray jet nozzles and optimise the cleaning performance. The unit
is suitable for cleaning gravity, suction and HVLP guns.
3.1. Ensure the air valve is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.2. You will require an air pressure of more than 75psi, and an air volume of more than 4 cfm for operating the unit.
3.3. p

life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing possible damage and personal injury.
3.4. Drain the air supply tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the item being supplied.
3.5. Clean the air inlet filter screen weekly. For recommended
hook-up, see diagram to right.
3.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for
unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum
hose diameter should be 10mm I.D. and fittings must
have the same inside dimensions.
3.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Check hoses for wear, and make certain that
all connections are secure.
3.8. The cleaners input connection is 1/4 BSP.

6.1 TO CHANGE SOLVENT
The amount of guns a 25 litre drum of solvent can clean will depend upon the amount of residue paint which is left in spray
equipment. We recommend however that the solvent is changed on a regular basis to provide optimum machine performance.
6.1.1. Close the drain tap, and remove drain hose and filter from container. Store the used solvent in accordance with regulations.
6.1.2. Clean the filter before reuse.
5.1.3. Insert the filter and hose into a new solvent drum as in section 4.
Wipe up any spillage immediately.
6.2. MAINTENANCE.
6.2.1. Clean the inside of the tank just before changing the solvent. To do so, close the drain tap (fig 4 & 2.B), start the machine and allow
a quantity of fluid to enter the tank. Turn machine off, lift lid and use the fluid to clean out the inside of the tank, removing any residue
waste. Open the drain valve to empty the tank.
6.2.2. Keep pick-up filter clean by rinsing in solvent and blowing out with an air line.
6.2.3. Change the green base filter (Model no SM2399/15) every three months, or more frequent if heavy use.
