Replacement
Apply a light coating of O-ring lubricant to all
the O-rings and the threads of the turbine and
turbine retaining ring prior to assembly. Push
the turbine down into the cavity in the atomizer
body. Align the mark on the turbine with the
mark on the atomizer body. Install the turbine
retaining ring and o-ring by hand. Use the
spanner wrench to tighten an additional 1/8-
1/4 turn. (Lightly lubricate O-ring with petrole-
um jelly.) Check centering of fluid tube. If flu-
id tube is centered, the turbine is fully seated.
If not, check tightness with spanner wrench. If
tube is not centered, again remove turbine and
check for causes, such as an O-ring fell off,
fiber optic not fully installed, foreign material
on seating surface, etc. Reinstall and recheck
tube centering.
Fluid Tip Removal/Replacement
Removal
To remove the fluid tips, use the tip/tube re-
moval tool (A11229-00). Insert the tool over
the tip and engage the four (4) prongs of the
tool into the four (4) slots in the tips (see Fig-
ures 28 and 29).
>To remove, turn the tip CLOCKWISE. The
thread on the tip is left handed.
The fluid tip may be removed either with the
turbine in place, or the turbine off the unit.
Figure 30 shows removing/reinstalling the tip
with the turbine in place.
This allows removal and replacement of the
fluid tip while the applicator is on line.
Check for leaks.
