SAGOLA S.A. has service kits available, which are shown
in the product breakdown diagrams, to attend to repairs
Before each start up and especially after each repair or
cleaning procedure, one must check that all the compo-
nents are completely stopped and that the safety systems
of the equipment operate properly.
Ground the equipment, as well as the hoses, the contai-
ners to be used and the objects to be painted.
Always place the equipment at least 6 metres away from
the product application area.
1. Adjust the product pressure regulator (Nº 8 in diagram
1) clockwise until the pressure gauge shows a pressure
between 0.5 and 1 bar. In the event that the pump or the
equipment is not fitted with this pressure regulator, close
the air supply to it.
2. Activate the gun's safety latch.
3. Adjust the air pressure inlet regulator of the gun (Nº 5
in diagram 1) by turning it counter clockwise.
4. Close the air inlet passage to the pump (Nº 14 in
diagram 1) and then adjust the air inlet pressure regulator
of the equipment (Nº 5 in diagram 1) turning it counter
clockwise.
5. Deactivate the gun's safety latch. Firmly holding a
metal part of the gun to the wall of a properly grounded
metal vessel, press the trigger to bleed the product (aim
the jet towards the wall of the vessel).
6. Activate the gun's safety latch.
7. Open the bleeding valve (Nº 15 in diagram 1) placing a
MOST IMPORTANT
Only if the whole process indicated in the section
regarding DEPRESSURISATION, described in section
10, has been correctly carried out will the unit be
ready to be started, cleaned, maintained and used
again.
The incorrect observance of this Depressurisation
process could lead to malfunctions in the equipment
and the damaging of its components.
Before proceeding to start up the unit, follow the steps in
the sequence shown below (if all the specified steps were
followed when shutting down the equipment, it will be in
the condition referred to below)
1. Open the bleeding valve (Nº 15 in diagram 1) to place
the equipment in bleeding state.
2. Adjust the air pressure inlet regulator of the equipment
gun (Nº 5 in diagram 1) by turning it clockwise.
3. Check that the air inlet tap to the equipment is open (Nº
14 in diagram 1).
4. Check the seal of all the connections of the equipment.
8. SERVICE KITS
and to replace the components on the equipment that
wear out.
9. START UP
The first time you use your equipment there is no need to
depressurise it, as it is already supplied completely
depressurised, though it will be necessary to do this each
time any maintenance, cleaning or repair work is carried
out.
Were this safety measure not observed, this may lead to
malfunctions, personal injury and accidents, which may
even be fatal. SAGOLA S.A. does not accept any liability
for the consequences of any non-compliance with these
safety rules.
10. DEPRESSURISATION
container close to the equipment to pour the product into.
Keep the valve open until the equipment is once again in
condition to operate.
If you suppose that the fluid nozzle, the filter or the hose
are completely clogged up or that the pressure has not
been completely removed after having followed the afore-
mentioned procedure, carefully dismantle the hose
gradually reducing the pressure until it disappears. Then
clean out the gun and/or hose. In the event that a gun is
not used, complete the work cycle until product stops
coming out of the pump or the equipment unit.
11. OPERATION
11.1. PRODUCT TRANSFER
1. Fit the suction tube to the equipment (firmly locking it)
(Nº 3 in diagram 1) and insert it into the product to be
transferred.
2. Check that the product outlet hose is inserted into its
container and that it is properly connected to the pump.
3. Connect the equipment (Nº 12 in diagram 1) to the
general air network.
4. Open the air passage tap (Nº 14 in diagram 1).
5. Adjust the control of the pressure regulator (Nº 5 in
diagram 1), turning it clockwise until the pump starts
moving.
6. Gradually increase the tap turning rate until it can be
seen that the product is being sucked up. When you see
that is starts to flow out of the product transfer outlet at the
desired speed stop turning the tap.
11.2. APPLICATION WITH SPRAY GUN
1. Fit the suction tube to the equipment (firmly locking it)
(diagram DM01/300 Nº 02 and 06 in diagram DM01/400)
and insert it into the product to be transferred. Check that
the suction filter (diagram DM01/300 Nº 01 and 07 in
diagram DM01/400) is clean and properly installed.
2. Connect the hose and the gun to the equipment (Nº 4
and 6 in diagram 1) and firmly lock its connections.
