– Press the trigger (4b) to start the delivery of the
air. The farther the trigger is pressed, the strong
er the air jet will be.
– Release the trigger to stop the delivery of air.
– After work disconnect the tool from the com
pressed air generator.
9. Maintenance and cleaning
m CAUTION
Disconnect the device from the compressed air sup
ply before cleaning it.
• To ensure proper functionality and a long lifetime,
diligent lubrication and maintenance is essential.
• For operating pneumatic tools clean air is required.
Corrosion residues, dust and dirt from the pneu
matic pipes reduce the efficiency of the tool and will
cause technical problems.
• If necessary clean the units and the accessory with
a moist cloth.
• Do not use abrasive or aggressive chemicals as
benzene or thinner, which may dissolve plastic
parts.
• Do not allow liquids to enter the tools and never im
merse them into liquids. Water in the compressed
air inlet can damage the machine. Therefore it is
recommended to drain the air lines and the com
pressor in regular intervals! Also clean the air filters
in regular intervals.
• Cleaning of the Paint spray gun with gravity-
feed can
Cleaning (by using of water soluble material)
When using water-soluble coating material, simply
clean all parts of the air paint spray gun thoroughly
with water.
Intensive Cleaning (by using of non water solu-
ble material)
• Please note that disassembling and intensive
cleaning of the paint spray gun are inevitable, as
otherwise it can lead to debris and to a bad spray
result, if lacquer and priming coats are used as
coating material.
• Clean the paint spray gun and the paint container
after each use with appropriate paint thinners or
cleaning agents. Empty the contents. Fill a little
paint thinner into the paint container and rinse it.
Empty the paint container and repeat the process
again with clean paint thinner. Spray the clean
paint thinner in short strokes.
• During cleaning please always wear a mask and
solvent-resistant gloves! Also wear eye protec
tion, as splashes of solvents can cause injuries
of your eyes.

• Never put the paint spray gun into solvents for a
longer period of time or overnight.
• Never use hard or sharp objects to remove paint
residues. The nozzle must always be kept clean.
Debris of dried paint can distort the paint jet and
damage the spray gun.
• Rinse all parts well after intensive cleaning and
dry the paint spray gun. Assemble the gun. Fill a
small amount of paint thinner into the paint con
tainer and blow it with compressed air through
the spray gun.
• Cleaning of the Tire pressure gauge
• Do not allow foreign substances and dirt to enter
the compressed air nozzle.
• Do not expose the manometer to vibrations or
mechanical stress.
• Add a few drops of oil to the sealing of the trigger
pin in regular intervals. Apart from that the tyre
inflator is maintenance free.
• Cleaning and maintenance of the compressed-
air gun
– Before cleaning or maintaining, first disconnect
the air spray gun from the air supply.
– Thoroughly rinse the spray gun with thinner or
cleaning agents. By spraying a small amount of
detergent, riser pipe, nozzle and spraying tube
can be cleaned from inside.
– Add a few drops of oil to the sealing of the trig
ger pin in regular intervals. Apart from that the air
spray gun is maintenance free.
Air Pressure and Air Volume
• Operate the air tools with the pressure stated in
the technical data using a compressor with an air
suction capacity of at least 200 l/min. When using
higher pressure than the max. permitted pressure
for operating the air tool, its self life will be reduced
drastically. The ideal capacity is provided by com
pressors with a suction capacity of 300–400 l/min.
• Only use air hoses with an inner diameter of at least
9 mm. When setting up the air pressure, always
keep in mind that the pressure will decrease ap
prox. 0.6 bar when using a 10 m long hose with an
inner diameter of 9 mm.
10. Storage
1. Perform all general maintenance, which are in the
User's Guide in the Maintenance section.
2. If you do not use the paint spray gun for a longer
period of time, lubricate the complete spray gun
from inside and outside with a little thin-fluid, ac
id-free oil. Before next use, fill the paint container
with a little thinner and blow it with compressed air
through the spray gun in order to remove the oil.
