When you come to an area which has one of the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain to heed the safeguard. · WARNING This symbol indicates a potential hazard which may cause serious injury or loss of life. [. . . ] Unlock the trigger and squeeze it open, pointing the gun at a scrap piece of wood or cardboard. This allows pressure in the paint hose to blow out the obstruction. When the nozzle is clean, paint will come out in a straight, high pressure stream. Reverse the tip so the arrow points forward again. Unlock the trigger and resume spraying. 3. Remove the filter from the spray gun housing and clean with the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for latex paints, mineral spirits for oil-based materials). Inspect the filter for holes (see Hole picture, above). Replace if holes are found. CAUTION NEVER POKE THE FILTER WITH A SHARP INSTRUMENT!Replace the cleaned filter, tapered end first, into the gun housing. NOTE: The tapered end of the filter must be loaded properly into the gun. Improper assembly will result in a plugged tip or no flow from the gun. For the GX-06/07, replace the spring and the fitting. For the GX-08/10, replace the housing and snap the trigger guard back into the housing. Cleaning the Spray Gun Filter The spray gun includes a filter to catch particles before they reach the spray tip. If this filter becomes clogged or obstructed it will reduce the flow of paint, changing the spray pattern and possibly damaging the filter. If the material being used is old or contains hardened particles, then the filter should be cleaned approximately every 4 hours. Filter top If the filter is not cleaned at the proper time, it will plug from the top down. When there is about 1 inch of filter that isn't plugged, the heavy flow of paint will blow pin holes in the filter. Holes in the filter will allow unwanted particles to get into the spray tip, causing the spray tip Pin hole to clog. Cleaning the Suction Set Screen The screen at the bottom of the suction set may also need cleaning. Check it every time you change paint buckets. Remove the screen by pulling it out of the retainer with a plier. Clean the screen with water or solvent and a soft-bristle brush. © 1999 Wagner Spray Tech - All rights reserved. 7 English R CLEAN UP Overnight Storage Shutdown 1.
