6. Cleaning and maintenace
Never use force. Using improper tools such as pliers, etc. will void any warranty. In many
cases proper repairs can only be carried out with the aid of special tools. In such cases,
limit yourself to establishing the cause of the problem and leave the repairs to the service depart-
ment. We refuse to accept liability for perfect functioning of the spray gun if it is disassembled by
the customer.
a) Flush out the gun thoroughly with thinner or cleaning fluid.
b) Clean the air nozzle with a paint brush or brush. Do not immerse the nozzle in thinner
or cleaning fluid.
c) Under no circumstances try to clean clogged drillings using an unsuitable tool, since
the slightest amount of damage adversely affects the spray pattern. Use SATA nozzle
cleaning needles ((included in cleaning kit 64030).
d) Only remove the black air distribution ring (Order No. 97824 / set of 3) in the gun
head in case it is damaged (no sealing performance at the paint nozzle).
In case of removal, always insert a new air distribution ring to ensure flawless function.
Insert new air distribution ring in its correct position and tighten paint nozzle again.
Respect mounting instructions for the air distribution ring (see 6.1)!
e) Slightly oil movable parts with SATA special grease (order no. 10009).
A mounting instruction of the air distribution ring can be found as a PDF and as a video
on our homepage www.sata.com/Media. Also more information on spray gun cleaning
can be obtained from a video.
