Useful tips
1.- Clean the equipment to eliminate any oil remaining within the product area (used to protect
parts after in factory tests), as explained in the section "cleaning the equipment".
2.- Prepare the item to be sprayed. Check the chemical compatibility of the product with the
different parts of the equipment. Follow each and every one of the manufacturer's instructions.
3.- The product outlet flow not only depends upon the air pressure but on the amount of product
at the product inlet and its viscosity.
4.- The product hoses hall be the appropriate one for the product to be pumped.
5.- Place as top cock and pressure regulator at the air inlet to the pump.
6.- Place a stop cock at the product outlet to interrupt the flow should this be necessary.
Start up
Before each start-up and especially after cleaning or repairing the unit, a check must be made
that all its elements are securely tightened.
Ground the equipment, as well as the hoses, the containers to be used and the objects to be
painted.
The first time you use your equipment there is no need to depressurise it, as it is already
supplied in a totally depressurised state, though it will be necessary to do this each time any
maintenance or repair work is carried out.
Should this safety measure not be observed, this may lead to malfunctions, personal injury and
accidents, which may prove to be fatal. SAGOLA S.A.U. does not accept any responsibility for the
consequences of any non-compliance with these safety regulations.
Only if the whole process indicated in the section regarding
DEPRESSURISATION, described in section 10, has been correctly
carried out will the unit be ready to be started and used again.
The incorrect observance of this Depressurisation process could
lead to malfunctions in the equipment and deterioration of its
components.
Don't exceed 7 bar/102 PSI in the air inlet pressure. Higher pressures
might damage the pump or cause you injury. We recommend the use
of an air filter on the general air network.
1.- Connect the suction pipe of the pump in the product to be pumped.
2.- Check that the product outlet hose is inside the container and that it is connected correctly
to the pump.
3.- Connect the pump to the air supply network via a pressure regulator and an air inlet ball stop
cock.
Check that this regulator and the stop cock are closed initially.
