10. Cleaning
When work has been completed, both the airbrush must be cleaned with the appropriate thinner, in
order to remove any remaining product.
Increase the air pressure and spray cleaning solution; this will help thoroughly clean the Paint
passages, nozzle, and needle. Remove the needle and wipe it clean. Remove any remains of product
from the airbrush with a cloth soaked in thinner and soak the needle cap and nozzle, if needed.
Never use halogenous hydrocarbons..
Keep air gasket areas free of accretions and foreign bodies.
Cleaning the airbrush between colors:
1. Dump out the excess paint from color cup.
2. Rinse the cup with the appropriate cleaning solution.
3. Wipe out any leftover paint with paper towel.
4. Spray cleaner through the airbrush until it sprays clear.
5. Add the next color to the color cup.
6. Repeat cleaning procedure when finished.
11. Health and Safety
In order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first disconnect the unit from the compres-
sed air distribution network.
We recommend using this unit in premises with forced ventilation and in accordance with the
current standards and provisions on the matter.
Near the unit, only keep the amount of product and thinner required for the work being done at that
time. After work has been completed, thinners and the product to be applied must be returned to
their corresponding storage location.
Keep the working area clean and free of potentially dangerous waste (thinners, rags, etc...).
While work is in progress, there must not be any source of ignition (naked flames,
lighted cigarettes, etc.) in the working area as these might generate easily flammable
gases. Likewise, the approved protective means must be used in accordance with the
regulations established in this regard.
If the unit is used in an inadequate manner or its components are altered in any way
severe material damage may occur and bodily harm may be caused to the operator,
other personnel and/or animals and may even cause death. SAGOLA accepts no respon-
sibility in for any damage caused through the incorrect use of the unit.
Never exceed the maximum air inlet pressure. Excessive pressure will cause greater environmental
contamination. To provide the hose with compressed air for the airbrush, fit a pressure regulator.
As a general, preventive measure we advise you to wear goggles in accordance with the
specific environmental regulations and characteristics for the work centre.
The airbrush in itself does not propitiate any mechanical risk of perforations, impact or
pinching, except those deriving from incorrect installations and handling.
While work is in progress, no vibrations are transmitted from the airbrush to any part of the body of
the operator and reaction forces are minimal.
USE SAGOLA ANTISTATIC HOSES TO ELIMINATE POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL
DISCHARGES THAT MIGHT CREATE THE RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
Pay adequate attention when handling the gun in order to prevent any damage that might lead to
dangerous situations for the user or personnel standing near the unit, as a consequence of leaks,
breakages, etc. Do not use it if your mental capacity, perceptions and reactions are altered due to
substances such as alcohol, drugs, medicines, etc., or by tiredness or for any other reason.
The airbrush has been designed for use at ambient temperature. Its maximum service temperature
is 50°C. Although the air temperature of the compressed air or product is higher, this must not
exceed the maximum average temperature in the body of the airbrush.
