Maintenance and Cleaning
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
Thoroughly clean the individual parts of the fine-spray
u
system immediately after each use, especially all
paint-carrying components. Proper cleaning is a pre-
requisite for faultless and safe operation of the spray gun.
No warranty claims will be accepted if cleaning has not
been done at all or has not been done properly.
Spare Container (Accessory) (see figure J)
You can store spray material for other applications in the air-
tight spare container (8) with cover.
Cleaning After Using Water-Based Paints (see figure K)
Always clean the spray gun and the spray material container
with warm water.
Never clean the nozzle and air holes in the spray gun with
pointed objects.
– Switch off the base unit (19) and remove the air
hose (17) from the spray gun (1).
– Remove the container (7) from the spray gun (1).
Hold the container (7) underneath the suction tube (12)
and pull the trigger switch (6) on the spray gun so that the
spray material can flow back into the container.

The spray material can be stored in an airtight, sealed
paint container for other applications. Use the spare
container (8) with cover or the original spray material
container, for example, for this purpose.

seal (14) and rinse it thoroughly.
Reattach the suction tube (12) with the container
seal (14) to the spray gun.

– Spray until only clear water comes out. You may have to
fill the container with warm water again.
– Remove the air hose (17) from both the base unit (19)
and the spray gun (1).
– Clean the base unit if necessary with a moistened cloth
and then remove the base unit (19) and the air hose (17)

using a commercially available washing-up brush. Also
clean the paint channel (16) of the spray gun (1).

cleaning brush.

bling them.
– Reassemble the fine-spray system in reverse order.
Slide the container seal (14) upwards again into the
groove of the suction tube (12).
Ensure that the container seal is positioned precisely all
around in the suction tube groove in order to seal the
spray gun correctly.
Make sure that you slide the suction tube (12) all the way
back onto the paint channel (16).
Cleaning After Using Solvent-Based Paints (see figure K)
Always clean the spray gun and the container for the spray
material with the respective diluting agent for the spray ma-
terial being used.
