Cleaning

Attention
Never place the spray gun in solvent or another cleaning agent. The perfect function
of the spray gun can otherwise not be guaranteed. Do not use any hard or pointed
objects for cleaning. WALTHER, Wuppertal, will not accept warranty claims for
damages resulting from inappropriate cleaning.
The gun does not need to be dismantled for cleaning.
1. Fill the cleaned gravity-feed cup with a cleaning fluid compatible with the
sprayed material.
2. Operate the spray gun.
3. Do not stop the spray gun until clear cleaning fluid emerges from the nozzle.
The entire system should then be depressurised until the gun is used again.
Clean the spray gun only with cleaning agents which have been recommended by
the manufacturer of the sprayed material and which do not contain the following
constituents:
• halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g. 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, etc.)
• acids and acidic cleaning fluids
• regenerated solvents (so-called cleaning thinners)
• paint removers
The above-mentioned constituents cause chemical reactions on electroplated
components, resulting in corrosion damage.
Clean the spray gun
• before each change of spraying material
• at least once a week or
• several times a week if required by the spraying medium and depending on the
degree of fouling.
Complete Cleaning
1. Disassemble the spray gun.
2. Clean the air cap and the material nozzle with a soft brush and cleaning fluid.
3. Clean all other components and the gun body with a soft cloth and cleaning fluid.
4. Coat the following parts with a thin layer of grease:
• needle spring
• all sliding parts and bearing points.
The moving internal parts must be greased at least once a week.
The springs should always be coated with a thin layer of grease. For this, always use
a non-acidic, non-resinogenic grease and a soft brush.
Assemble the gun again in reverse order.
