7. TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: The symbol (!) means that before starting the procedure it is necessary to release pressure (see paragraph 4.2)
ANOMALY
1. The fluid does not come
out or insufficient output.
2. Unstable fluid output.
3. The agitator does not
rotate or the rotation
speed is not enough.
4. Unstable agitation speed.

POSSIBLE CAUSE
Lack of air supply, or insufficient
air supply.
Insufficient air pressure.
Blocked fluid passages.
Level of the fluid in the container
too low.
Fluid viscosity too high.
Insufficient air pressure.
Lack of air supply, or insufficient
air supply.
Insufficient air pressure.
Insufficient air flow.
Fluid viscosity too high.
Damaged air motor.
Air pressure and air flow rate.
Incorrect alignment between the
agitation shaft and suction pipe.
Rotation speed to slow.
CHECK POINTS
Twisted or obstructed air hose and
couplings.
The two-way air inlet valve is closed. Open the valve.
Air leakage up to the air inlet.
Air leakage at the air inlet.
Air leakage from the paint tank set.
Insufficient air source pressure.
Improper adjustment of the air pres-
sure regulator.
Fluid passages between the fluid
outlet joint and the suction pipe.
The two-way fluid outlet valve is
closed.
Condensed fluid accumulated on the
bottom of the container.
Fluid level.
Fluid viscosity.
Fluctuating air pressure.
See troubleshooting item 1.
Twisted or clogged air pipe, and/or
clogged quick air coupling.
Insufficient air supply pressure.
Improper adjustment of the air flow
regulator.
Check the air supply source.
Fluid viscosity.
Air motor.
Fluctuating air pressure and air
flow rate.
Incorrect air motor support position.
Rotation speed.
REMEDY
Remove any restriction to the air flow. (!)
Adjust properly.
Connect and tighten the air hose
properly.
See troubleshooting item 4.
Maintain the air supply pressure at a
suitable level, but less than 7 bar.
Adjust the air pressure suitably through
the regulator.
Remove any obstructions. (!)
Open the valve.
Remove or mix well.
The fluid filling level must be higher than
the inlet suction pipe. (!)
Dilute the fluid suitably. (!)
Ensure sufficient air pressure: eliminate
any other air consumption that might
compromise the air system.
See troubleshooting item 1.
Replace or clean. (!)
Maintain the air supply pressure at a
suitable level, but less than 7 bar.
Adjust the air flow suitably through the
flow regulator.
Ensure a sufficient air flow.
Dilute the fluid suitably. (!)
Repair or replace air motor.
Ensure sufficient air flow and steady
air pressure. Eliminate any other air
consumption from the air system or
increase air supply capacity.
Reassemble in proper position. (!)
Increase the rotation speed.
