"CLEANING & MAINTENANCE"
Good cleaning and maintenance is very important for maximum performance and to
extend the life of your spray gun. CAUTION - Any improper action or misplaced parts
may lead to damage of the equipment, and even danger to the user.
1. After each use, flush out the gun thoroughly by pouring thinner into the gravity/siphon cup
and spray out thinner. Repeat until the spraying becomes clear. This removes any point
residue on the tip of the nozzle and inside the paint passage way.
2. Turn off the air and paint supply, and disconnect the gun release the air pressure inside
the gun by pulling the trigger on last time.
3. Immerse only the front portion of the gun as the solvent just covers the fluid nipple.
(Caution - when immersing the entire gun in the solvent for a long period of time, the
lubricant on the leather packing and on all the moveable parts will dissolve - this causes
harder operation, faster wear, and sometimes functional defects). Please be aware that
dirty solvent may clog the drilled holes and the narrow air passageway of the spray gun.
4. Use a bristle brush included within the package to gently clean the air cap and nozzle.
(DO NOT USE A METAL BRUSH!!!)
5. Probing the clogged holes of the air cap and nozzle with an unsuitable
instrument is prohibited. Even the slightest damages may
compromise the finishing result. If probing is necessary,
use a tool that is softer than brass.
6. Wipe the spray gun with solvent dampened rag, and reattach
the air supply to blow out any fluid inside the gun.
7. Lubricate the Matco spray gun by using light machine oil on:
1) Air Valve Packing, 2) Needle packing Set, and 3) Trigger pivot point.
Coat the fluid adjusting knob (#12) with Vaseline.
(NEVER USE LUBRICANTS WITH SILICONE CONTENT!!!)
8. Make the necessary adjustments with the Fluid Adjusting knob so that the
TWO-step triggering mechanism is smooth.
When using a pressure tank for pressure-fed Matco Spray Gun, first
turn off the air supply and release the pressure in the tank. Use a
cloth to cover the fluid nozzle. Squeeze the trigger to force fluid out of
the hose and into the tank. Use enough solvent to rinse the hose and
blow it clean with air.
9. Continue the cleaning by following Step 2-9 Do not use undue force in mating parts. Inappropriate use or
modification of the Matco Spray Gun may cause serious damages. If the problem is too complicated, it is
recommended to make any repairs at an authorized service shop in your area.
