Spraying - Titan PowrCoat Série Mode D'emploi

15. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until the old
solvent is gone and fresh solvent is coming out of the gun.
16. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
POSSIBLE INjECTION HAZARD
Refer to your spray gun manual for information
regarding the locking mechanism and how to
properly lock the spray gun.
17. Set down the gun and increase the pressure by turning the air
regulator slowly clockwise to a maximum of 100 PSI (6.9 bar).
DO NOT exceed an air regulator gauge reading of
100 PSI (6.9 bar).
18. Check the entire system for leaks. If leaks occur, turn the
sprayer off and follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" in this
manual before tightening any fittings or hoses.
19. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" (section 4.6) in this
manual before changing from solvent to paint.
Be sure to follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when
shutting the unit down for any purpose, including
servicing or adjusting any part of the spray system,
changing or cleaning spray tips, or preparing for
cleanup.

Spraying

1. Place the siphon hose into a container of paint.
2. Place the bleed hose into a metal waste container.
3. Close the shutoff valve (fig 11, item 1). The figure shows the
handle in the closed position.
4. Turn on the air compressor.
5. Turn the air regulator (2) fully counterclockwise to its lowest
pressure setting.
6. Open the bleed valve (3) by turning it fully counterclockwise.
7. Open the shutoff valve (fig. 11, item 1). The handle should
now be in line with the valve.
8. Turn the air regulator (2) clockwise to increase pressure until
the sprayer cycles evenly and material flows freely from the
bleed hose.
9. Turn off the sprayer.
a. Turn the air regulator fully counterclockwise to its lowest
pressure setting.
b. Close the shutoff valve.
10. Remove the bleed hose from the waste container and place it
into the container of material.
11. Close the bleed valve by turning it fully clockwise.
12. Open the shutoff valve. The handle should now be in line
with the valve.
13. Turn the air regulator clockwise to increase pressure until the
sprayer cycles evenly. The air regulator gauge should read
between 60-80 PSI (4 - 5.5 bar).

14. Unlock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
Earth the gun by holding it against the edge of the
metal container while flushing. Failure to do so may
lead to a static electric discharge, which may cause
a fire.
15. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until all air and
solvent is flushed from the spray hose and paint is flowing
freely from the gun.
16. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
17. Close the shutoff valve (fig 11, item 1). The figure shows the
handle in the closed position.
18. Attach tip guard and tip to the gun as instructed by the tip
guard or tip manuals.
POSSIBLE INjECTION HAZARD. Do not spray
without the tip guard in place. Never trigger the
gun unless the tip is in either the spray or the unclog
position. Always engage the gun trigger lock before
removing, replacing or cleaning tip.
19. Open the shutoff valve. The handle should now be in line
with the valve.
20. Increase the pressure by turning the air regulator slowly
clockwise and test the spray pattern on a piece of cardboard.
Adjust the regulator until the spray from the gun is completely
atomized. Verify pressure reading at the air gauge.
• Paint pressure is directly proportional to the amount of air
pressure.
• Example: PowrCoat 30:1
100 PSI (6.9 bar) reading at air gauge = 3000 PSI (207 bar) at
pump outlet
DO NOT exceed an air regulator gauge reading of
100 PSI (6.9 bar).
21. Once the correct air pressure has been established, lock the air
regulator by pushing down on the knob.
using a higher pressure than required will only
i
wear out tips. use the guidelines in establishing the
lowest pressures for proper atomization.
Consult the materials manufacturer for guidelines in
establishing the correct fluid pressure.
