NO. 2 HANDGUN
It is not advisable to soak the No. 2 Handgun in
solvent at any time. Most of the components of
the gun are designed to withstand exposure to
many different solvents. There are components
within the gun that will not withstand solvent ex-
posure and will be destroyed by such exposure.
This manual will advise when it is safe to clean
components with solvent.
Paint residue can be cleaned from the external
surfaces of the gun with nonpolar solvents and
solvents that do not leave a conductive residue
on the surfaces. Solvents safe for cleaning the
gun surface are the same as those listed in this
manual under “Effects of Solvents - No. 2 Handgun
Bells”. If other solvents are required for cleaning,
then that cleaning should be followed with the
listed solvents.
† When working with any solvent, do it in
a well ventilated area away from any igni-
tion sources. All heath and safety guidelines
recommended by the solvent manufacturer
must be followed.
† The gun assembly should never be
soaked in solvent. If the gun is soaked in
solvent, internal components will be dam-
aged. This could cause injury to personnel
and damage to equipment. SOAKING THE
GUN ASSEMBLY IN SOLVENT WILL VOID
WARRANTY.
SCHEDULES
Periodic
To assure continuous, efficient, trouble free oper-
ation of the No. 2 Handgun, periodic inspection of
the components is required. Clean, repair and/ or
replace any defective components as required.
† Prior to gun disassembly, flush line and
gun with a suitable solvent. Loosen the set
screw on the bell hub, remove, and clean
the bell with a soft brush (nonmetallic) or
cloth and a suitable solvent. The bell MUST
be cleaned if spraying is to be interrupted
for more than a few minutes.
† NEVER wrap the applicator, associated
valves and tubing, and supporting hardware
in plastic to keep it clean. A surface charge
may build up on the plastic surface and
discharge to the nearest grounded object.
Efficiency of the applicator will also be re-
duced and damage or failure of the appli-
cator’s components may occur. WRAPPING
THESE COMPONENTS IN PLASTIC WILL
VOID WARRANTY.
Daily
1. Prior to start-up, inspect all components of the
system for defective or broken parts and repair
or replace.
2. Inspect the bell for chips or cracks and replace
as needed.
3. Ensure the equipment is installed properly. See
the “Installation” section.
