3. Remove and check the adjusting
needle for excessive wear at the tip
and straightness.
IMPOrTanT: If the needle tip is worn
more on one side than the other, either
the needle is bent or the gun body
has been dropped or knocked out-of-
line. There are no adjustments that
can be made to a bent gun body. Test
the needle by rolling on a flat surface.
Replace if necessary.

o-rings and seals. O-rings and seals
can be wiped clean but not soaked in
solvent.
5. Unscrew packing nuts and replace
the packing ONLY if a leak will not
stop when the nut is tightened.
Do not over-tighten a packing nut
because this will restrict movement
of the needle.

above and use a non-silicone oil on
moving parts. Apply Vaseline ® or
light grease on threaded joints and
hose connections.
