PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Daily Maintenance (During Each Preventive

Maintenance Break)

1. Verify that high voltage is OFF and that

shaping air, bearing air, and turbine drive air

are ON.

2. Open the dump valve, flushing all paint from

the supply lines and valve module.

3. Open the solvent valve, flushing all paint

from the fluid tube and through the atomizer

bell assembly.

4. Re-verify that high voltage is OFF, turbine

drive air is OFF, and that the bell cup has

stopped spinning. The bearing air and

shaping air should remain ON.

5. Clean all external surfaces of the applicator

using a lint-free rag dampened with solvent.

6. After cleaning, all conductive residue must

be removed using a non-conductive solvent.

Since electrostatic equipment is involved,

these solvents should also be non-polar

(Naphtha).

7. Inspect bell cup for nicks, dents, heavy

scratches, or excessive wear. Replace if

necessary.

8. Check bell cup tightness. Tighten to 50-70

lbs•in (5.65-7.91 Nm) torque.

9. Check the amount of paint build-up on the

outer protective cloth covers, if used. If

excessive, replace covers as required. If

cloths are wet, find source and replace with

dry cloth covers.

†

The high voltage must be turned OFF be-

fore entering the spray area and performing

any maintenance procedures. Spray booth

exhaust fan(s) should remain ON while

cleaning the equipment with solvents.

†

Make sure high voltage is OFF before

approaching applicator with solvent cloth.

†

DO NOT use reclaim solvent containing

d-Limonene. This can cause damage to

certain plastic components.

†

DO NOT stop bell rotation by using a rag

or gloved hand against the bell cup edge.

†

Maximum flow rate should not exceed

800 cc/min.

†

Daily removal and soaking of the bell

cup may not be required if the bell cup is

properly flushed. However, the frequency

of the feed tube and internal motor shaft

inspection indicated below under weekly

maintenance can be done daily and later

adjusted to weekly or as required depend-

ing on the results of the inspection.

†

In the event the bell cup comes in con-

tact with a part, that cup should be replaced

before continuing to spray.

†

Do Not place high voltage test probe on

bell edge unless rotation is fully stopped.

†

Make sure that no solvent or other

contamination is allowed to enter the motor

assembly (air bearing and outer shaft).
