15. Lubrication
The original lubrication of the gun is eliminated through
use and cleaning. In order to guarantee perfect operation,
it is necessary to grease the regulating or fastening
threads, friction areas, etc., on a periodic basis, especially
after each cleaning session and with greater care if the gun
has been cleaned in a machine. Moving parts must be
lubricated lightly after cleaning has been completed.
We recommend you to use a light SAE 10 oil or natural
grease or vasoline.
It is important to check that the lubricant used does not
contain components that might impair the spraying
quality (Silicones, etc.).
16. Health and Safety
In order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first disconnect the unit from the compressed
air distribution network.
• Safe disconnection from the compressed air network:
If there is any cleaning liquid or product remaining in the tank, return it to its corresponding container.
If the pneumatic connector is fitted in the air inlet, disconnect the hose from the pistol. If it is not,
depressurise the air hose properly and, using a spanner, unscrew the end of the hose from the air inlet
connector, holding the pistol firmly.
• Safe connection to the compressed air network:
If the pneumatic connector is fitted in the air inlet, connect the hose to the pistol. If it is not, hold the
pistol firmly and, using a spanner, screw the end of the hose into the air inlet connector. Check there
are no leaks.
• Safe disconnection of the product tank:
Carry out the cleaning according to point 14. Disconnect the tank by unscrewing the product inlet
connector, holding the body of the pistol firmly.
• Safe connection of the product tank:
Connect the tank by screwing on the product inlet connector, holding the body of the pistol firmly. Check
there are no leaks.
Never point the unit towards yourself, others or animals. The thinners and dilution
media used can cause serious injury.
We recommend using this unit in premises with forced ventilation and in accordance with the
current standards and provisions on the matter.
Near the unit, only keep the amount of product and thinner required for the work being done at that
time. After work has been completed, thinners and the product to be applied must be returned to their
corresponding storage location.
Keep the working area clean and free of potentially dangerous waste (thinners, rags, etc...).
While work is in progress, there must not be any source of ignition (naked
flames, lighted cigarettes, etc.) in the working area as these might generate
easily flammable gases. Likewise, the approved protective means must be used
(breathing, hearing, etc.) in accordance with the regulations established in this
regard.
If the unit is used in an inadequate manner or its components are altered in any way severe
material damage may occur and bodily harm may be caused to the operator,
or animals and may even cause death. SAGOLA S.A.U. accepts no responsibility in for any damage
caused through the incorrect use of the unit.
