Shut-Down Procedures
1. Trigger gun until pump shaft is in the full down position (at bottom of stroke position).
2. Engage gun trigger lock.
3. Relieving pressures:
· Close main air valve to system.
· Purge excess air from system by relieving air from the bottom of the air filter or water trap.
· Catalyst pressure: “Dump” or relieve catalyst pressure at catalyst manifold (if applicable) by
opening catalyst ball valve. Pressure will immediately be relieved. Close the ball valve at once to
avoid draining of catalyst from catalyst line.
· Material pressure: Place a container under material ball valve at bottom of fluid filter assembly to
catch material flow when relieving pressure. Slowly open material ball valve to relieve pressure.
Remember - the pump is under extreme pressure. Use the utmost caution when opening the
valve to avoid injury or being sprayed with material. Once material pressure is relieved, close ball
valve.
NOTE:
When cleaning gun with solvents, avoid geting solvent in exhause port of “air trigger” gun by
covering port with thumb or finger, and pointing gun downward while cleaning.
4. Remove catalyst and material tip assemblies from head of gun and clean thoroughly.
5. Thoroughly clean diffuser cavity in front of gun head.
6. Inspect entire gun and equipment for over spray and clean.
System is now “shut-down” and ready for the next start-up
