5.1.
PREPARING TANK & ITEMS FOR CLEANING
5.1.1. Ensure tank drain valve (66) is closed and then pour solvent into tank (2). To aid future sludge removal approximately 2 litres of water may be
added, either before or after the solvent. Ensure final level is at least 1 inch (25mm) above pump suction strainer (59).
5.1.2. Confirm air valve (20) is closed and air supply pressure is regulated to not more than 3.5 bar (50psi). Turn on air supply.
5.1.3. Partially open air valve (20) and allow pump to run slowly for approx. 2 minutes to purge fluid used for manufacturer's tests.
Note: Lid (1) must be closed for pump to operate.
5.1.4. Check the spray gun to be cleaned, empty and store any excess paint for future use. For best results clean immediately after use,
having removed as much residual paint as possible.
5.1.5. To open the spray gun for cleaning, Squeeze trigger and fit trigger lock (56) as shown in fig.1.
5.1.6. Gun cleaning nozzle (8) may be fitted directly to manifold (6) without items (9) and (10) - 'short nozzle', or with items (9) and (10) - 'long nozzle'.
Place the spray gun into the washer as follows:
a) Suction gun - fit suction stem over short nozzle.
b) Gravity gun - fit paint inlet over long nozzle.
c) Pressure gun - 2 litre - fit paint inlet over short nozzle.
- exceeding 2 litre - fit paint inlet over long nozzle.
Place pot over nozzle 'A' (fig.2 - Screen (11) omitted for clarity).
5.2.
CLEANING
5.2.1. Ensure washer lid is closed and then fully open pump air valve (20).
The pump will now operate and expel an atomized spray through the nozzles in the cleaning tank.
5.2.2. Cleaning will be complete after 45 seconds, at which time pump should be turned off by closing air valve (20).
Do not operate pump for longer than 2 minutes at any one time as this will reduce seal life.
5.2.3. Open lid and remove cleaned equipment.
NOTE: If, during cleaning, lid is opened, cleaning process will automatically stop. Close lid for cleaning to continue. DO NOT store guns in tank.

6.1.
SOLVENT REPLACEMENT
The number of guns the solvent can clean will depend upon the amount of residual paint which is left in spray equipment. We recommend however
that the solvent is changed on a regular basis to provide optimum cleaning performance and that paint sludge is removed weekly, as detailed below.
6.1.1. Sludge removal
a) No water added - Drain 2 litres of solvent/sludge from drain valve (66). Close valve and add clean solvent to tank to
bring level up to at least 25mm above strainer.
b) Water added - Drain water until it becomes discoloured, close drain valve. Change to 'dirty solvent' receptacle, re-open
drain valve and drain 2 litres of solvent/sludge. Close valve, replace water in tank and then add clean solvent to
bring level up to at least 25mm above strainer.
6.1.2. Solvent change
Completely drain dirty solvent as in 6.1.1. Clean inside of tank (2) and strainer (59) before refilling with clean solvent.
Store the used solvent in accordance with regulations.
Wipe up any spillage immediately.
6.2.
MAINTENANCE
6.2.1. Weekly, remove pump upper cap (45) and add grease.
6.2.2. Regularly check that opening the washer lid automatically stops the spray.
6.2.3. Regularly check and top up the oil in the air supply oiler.
6.2.4. Keep the outside of the unit clean.
