Converting To Top Feed; Converting The Gun From Non-Bleeder To Bleeder - Titan MAXUM ELITE Manual Del Propietário

converting to Top Feed

The cup is designed for a maximum working
pressure of 6 PSI (0.41 bar). Pressures higher than
6 psi can result in cup leakage, damage to the
equipment, and/or potential injury to the user.
The top feed HVLP spray gun is designed for use in special
applications such as spraying in confined areas. The position of
the cup gives the top feed gun the ability to spray downward and
overhead. When spraying with the top feed gun, remember the
following tips for the best results. Keep the cup pressurized at all
times when spraying. Attempting to gravity feed the material will
slow or stop the flow of material at the nozzle.
NOTE: It is recommended that the gun hook be removed
whenever using the top feed cup assembly.
To set up the spray gun for top feed delivery:
1. Loosen the retaining nut using a wrench and remove the
one quart cup assembly.
2. Pull the air tube off of the air tube fitting on the spray gun.
3. Separate the gun head from the gun rear (see instructions
on page 3). Reassemble gun head upside-down so fluid
inlet fitting on gun head points upward to accept the top
feed cup assembly.
4. Remove the gun hook and thread the retaining nut of the
top-feed cup assembly onto the fluid inlet of the gun head.
Rotate the stand away from the cup and set the gun
assembly on a level surface.
5. Using an adjustable wrench, secure the retaining nut,
making sure the gun/cup assembly stays in a level
position. The cup should end up in a vertical position
when supported by the stand.
6. Connect the air tube to the air tube fitting on the spray
gun.
IMPORTaNT: The gun, when converted to top-feed, will not
stand on its own. Make sure to use the stand when filling.
Do not lay the gun on its side when it is filled with material.
Do not hang the gun by its hook when filled with material.

converting the gun from Non-Bleeder to
Bleeder
Your HVLP spray gun can be converted from a non-bleeder to a
bleeder setup. Bleeder setup provides more atomizing power for
higher viscosity materials, such as latex and enamels. Bleeder
setup can make it easier to spray in confined spaces, such as
inside cabinets, because the air hose is moved to the back of the
gun.
To convert a spray gun to bleeder setup:
1. Remove the air flow adjustment knob from the rear of the
gun using a wrench.
2. Remove the air inlet fitting from the bottom of the gun
handle using a wrench.
3. Thread the air inlet fitting into the air flow adjustment knob
location at the rear of the gun. Secure the fitting in place.

4. Thread the air inlet plug (shipped loose with the gun
literature pack) into the air inlet at the bottom of the gun
handle. Secure the plug in place.

5. Attach the air hose to the relocated air inlet fitting.
NOTE: In bleeder setup, the removal of the air flow
adjustment knob causes the air supply to be on at
all times when the air hose is attached to the gun.
