Installation; Start-Up - Sagola ATLANTA 800 G Manual De Instrucciones

Before installing the equipment, it is essential to read and
fully understand the information given in this operating and
maintenance guide.
It is also essential to read and fully understand each and
every one of the instructions given in the instruction
manual, particularly those which refer to safety measures
and warnings, with the aim of preventing the occurrence of
accidents of any kind.
Follow each and every one of the steps described in the
different sections, in the order in which they are given.
1 - Connect the product suction probo or deposit and the
product return drain (no.3, figure 1) if these are loose.
2 - Connect the hose to the product outlet (no. 6, figure 1).
Before each start-up and especially after cleaning or repai-
ring the unit, a check must be made that all its elements are
securely tightened.
The first time you use your equipment there is no need to
depressurise it, as it is already supplied in a totally depres-
surised state, though it will be necessary to do this each
time any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
Should this safety measure not be observed, this may lead
to malfunctions, personal injury and accidents, which may
prove to be fatal. SAGOLA S.A. does not accept any
responsibility for the consequences of any non-compliance
with these safety regulations.
1 - Open the product decompression valve (no. 4, figure 1),
to drain the equipment.
2 - Set the pressure regulator (no. 5, figure 1) to the
minimum position (tum anticlockwise).
3 - Check the product circuit for loose connections.
4 - Remove the product cap from the gun.
5 - Empty the cleaning solvent present in the interior of the
pump, by means of the drain tube (no. 3 figure 1). To do
this, set the motor start-up switch to ON. Turn the regulator
(no. 5 figure 1) gently to the right. Within a few seconds
solvent will begin to run from drain tube (no. 3 figure 1).
Collect the solvent issuing from the drain tube in a contai-
ner. As soon as no more solvent runs out, tum the pressure
regulator to the minimum setting (anticlockwise) and
disconnect the motor by means of the switch (to the setting
"off").
6 - Insert the suction probe (no. 1, figure 1) into the paint
tank. If the pump has a gravity tank, fill this tank (in accor-
dance with the quantity required for use). Place the drain
tube in the paint container or in the gravity tank (no. 3,
figure 1).

9. INSTALLATION

Tighten with two wrenches. Attach the spray gun at the
opposite end.
3.- Clean the equipment to eliminate any oil remaining
within the hydraulic area (intended for the protection of
parts alter in-factory tests), as explained in the suction
cleaning.
4.- Prepare the item to be sprayed. Check the chemical
compatibility of the product with the different parts of the
equipment. Follow each and every one of the manufactu-
rer's instructions. Pass the product through a sieve of the
appropriate size mesh before application, with the object of
avoiding any clogging of the cap during spraying.
10. START UP
7 - Set the motor switch to the ON position. Turn the
pressure regulator (no. 5, figure 1) gently to the right.
Within a few seconds product will run from the drain tube
(no. 3, figure 1). Move the pressure regulator again, to the
minimum setting. Close the drain tube stopcock (no. 4,
figure 1).
8 - Aim the gun towards a properly-grounded container.
Press the trigger on the gun, holding a metallic part of the
gun (the hand protector, for instance) in contact with the
metailic container. Start turning the pressure regulator
once again (no. 5, figure 1) gently to the right. Within a few
seconds, product will flow from the head of the gun which
is not fitted with a cap. Maintain the flow of product until this
is oven (no air) from the head.
9 - Install the spray cap.
10 - Adjust the spray width.
- Increase the pressure by means of the pressure regulator
(no. 5, figure 1) until the product flowing from the gun is
fully atomised. To avoid spraying too great a quantity of
product, which may lead to excessive mist and premature
wear on the cap and other parts of the equipment, always
use the lowest pressure setting possible to obtain the
performance and thickness in microns given by the manu-
facturer of the product.
- Once the atomising pressure for the product has been
determined, if a greater quantity of product is required, it is
preferable to use a cap of greater diameter than to increa-
se the pressure during application.
- To set the shape of the spray width, set the spray gun
safety catch, loosen the cap attachment bolt and turn to the
desired direction. Tighten the cap attachment bolt.
