11. Maintenance
In order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first disconnect the unit from the compres-
sed air distribution network.
Do not apply excessive force or inadequate tools for maintaining and cleaning the unit. Some
repairs must be done with special tools on some occasions.
In these cases, you must contact the Customer Service of SAGOLA. Any handling of this product
by non-authorised personnel would render the warranty null and void.
The unit must be overhauled on a periodic basis to check the status of its components and
replace these when they are not in perfect condition.
IN ORDER TO OBTAIN THE BEST POSSIBLE RESULTS, ALWAYS USE ORIGINAL
SPARES. ENSURE TOTAL INTERCHANGEABILITY, SAFETY AND OPERATION.
11.1. Changing the self-adjusting Packing gland
The needle gaskets that form part of the packing gland are gun components that should be
replaced when malfunctions occur or when there is a loss of air tightness.
Gun head packing gland: In order to
replace the packing gland, remove the
product regulator and extract the product
needle and spring fitted with its stop. With a
13 mm fixed wrench, remove the packing
gland to be replaced. Replace the packing
gland and reassemble in the reverse order.
Packing gland of the air valve: In order to replace the packing gland, remove the product regulator
and extract the product needle and spring fitted with its stop. With a 9 mm Allen wrench, remove
the guide box, extracting the valve spring, the valve and the bushing support. With a 6 mm Allen
wrench, remove the packing gland and extract the gasket. Replace the packing gland and the
washing support gasket (supplied in the specific kit) and follow the reverse procedure.
11.2. Cleaning or replacement of the product filter
· Gravity/suction version:
If there is any cleaning liquid or product remaining in the tank, return it to its corresponding
containers. To avoid any spillage, keep the pistol in a vertical position and clean as thoroughly as
possible.
Holding the pistol firmly by the handle, disassemble the tank by unscrewing it from the body of
the spray gun.
Extract the product filter and if there is any cleaning liquid or product remaining in the body of the
pistol, return it to its corresponding container.
Clean or replace the product filter as needed, taking into account that the impurities will cause
defects in the finish and/or obstructions.
Assemble the product filter again, inserting it all the way into the hole in the input connector.
Fit the tank by screwing it firmly onto the body of the pistol, to avoid product leaks.
Tighten the filler cap firmly.
In the version with the non-drip cap, tip it forward (paint up) or back (paint down) as necessary.
Check there are no leaks.
