NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:

Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important to

treat the injury as soon as possible. DO NOT delay treatment

to research toxicity. Toxicity is a concern with some coatings

injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic

surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.

Setup

Never attempt to assemble, change, or clean the gun, tip,

or tip guard without first relieving pressure from the spray

system. Follow the “Pressure Relief Procedure” in the

sprayer’s Owner’s Manual.

Always use a tip safety guard for added protection against

injection. Beware that the guard alone will not prevent

injection. Never cut off tip guard! Always engage gun

trigger lock when the gun is not in use. Before servicing

equipment, consult Owner’s Manuals and follow all

warnings.

NOTE: The spray tip determines the size of spray pattern

and coverage. When more coverage is needed, use a

largertipinsteadofincreasinguidpressure.

Cleanup

Maintainingacleangunisimportanttoensuretrouble-freeoperation.

Flushthegunaftereachuseandstoreinadrylocation.Donotleavethe

gunoranyofitspartsinwaterorsolvents.

Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable

solvents:

 • Alwaysushspraygunpreferablyoutsideandatleastone

hose length from spray pump.

 • Ifcollectingushedsolventsinaonegallonmetalcontainer,

solvents.

 • Areamustbefreeofammablevapors.

 • Followallcleanupinstructions.

IMPORTANT: The sprayer, hose, and gun should be cleaned

thoroughly after daily use. Failure to do so permits material to cake,

seriously affecting the performance of the unit.

Always spray at minimum pressure

with the tip and tip guard removed

when using mineral spirits or any

other solvent to clean the sprayer,

hose, or gun. Static electricity buildup

may result in a fire or explosion in the

presence of flammable vapors. Hold

the gun firmly against a metal container while flushing.

NOTE: To check the adjustment of the seal assembly:

1. Move the gun trigger lock to the locked position.

2. Pull the trigger.

With the trigger lock engaged, there should be 1/32” of

movement between the lock nut and the rear housing

while pulling the trigger.
