09. Start up
Before each start-up and especially after cleaning or repairing the unit, a check must be made
that all its elements are securely tightened.
Ground the equipment, as well as the hoses, the
containers to be used and the objects to be painted.
Always place the equipment at least 6 metres away from
the product application area.
The first time you use your equipment there is no need
to depressurise it, as it is already supplied in a totally
depressurised state, though it will be necessary to do this
each time any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
Should this safety measure not be observed, this may
lead to malfunctions, personal injury and accidents,
which may prove to be fatal. SAGOLA S.A.U. does not
accept any responsibility for the consequences of any
non-compliance with these safety regulations.
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 and used again.
The incorrect observance of this Depressurisation process could lead
to malfunctions in the equipment and deterioration of its components.
1.- Insert the suction probe (No.1) in the container with the product to be applied.
2.- Turn the pressure regulator (No.4) clockwise, until you see that the product circulates through
the unit and flows through the return hose (No.2). In either of both cases, insert the product
return hose (No.2) in the actual product.
3.- Close the product return key (No.3).
4.- Turn the product regulator control (No.4) to adjust the required pressure to be applied, visible
on the pressure gauge (No.7).
5.- Carry out an uncompromising application test by directing the application on an earthed
metallic container, WITHOUT the air cap on the gun.
6.- Pull the trigger of the spray gun while maintaining part of the same (for example the hand
guard), in contact with the container being sprayed. In a few seconds the product will start to
flow from the head of the gun without the air cap. Keep the product flowing until it there is a
continuous flow (no air) through the head.
7.- Activate the gun's safety latch.
8.- Assemble the air cap on the gun.
9.- Adjust the Spray Pressure:
9.1 Adjust the spray pressure by turning the pressure regulator control (No.5) until the
product flowing from the gun is completely atomised.
To avoid spraying an excessive amount of product that causes excessive misting, and
produces premature wear of the air cap and the components of the unit, always use the
