Operating Instructions
Follow these instructions for effective cleaning of your spray gun components using the DeVilbiss 192212 kit:
Using Brushes:
- Select the appropriate brush size for the specific internal and external surfaces of your spray gun.
- Apply a suitable cleaning solvent to the brush and the spray gun components.
- Scrub gently but thoroughly to loosen dried paint and debris from the gun body, cup, and other accessible parts.
Using Cleaning Wires:
- For small orifices and passages, such as air caps, fluid tips, and air passages, carefully insert the cleaning wires.
- Twist and push gently to dislodge blockages. Do not force wires, as this may damage precision components.
- Always ensure the wire is smaller than the passage to avoid damage.
Using the Pick Tool:
- The pick tool is useful for removing stubborn debris from crevices, threads, and hard-to-reach areas.
- Exercise caution to avoid scratching or damaging critical surfaces or precision-machined parts.
Post-Cleaning:
- After cleaning, rinse all components with clean solvent or water as recommended by your spray gun manufacturer.
- Allow all parts to dry completely before reassembly to prevent contamination or corrosion.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your DeVilbiss 192212 Cleaning Kit, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Clean Tools After Each Use: After each cleaning session, thoroughly clean the brushes, wires, and pick tool with appropriate solvents to remove all paint and debris.
- Rinse and Dry: Rinse the tools thoroughly with clean water or solvent and allow them to air dry completely before storage.
- Proper Storage: Store the cleaning kit in a clean, dry place to prevent corrosion and damage to the tools. Keep them organized to easily find the correct tool for future use.
- Inspect for Wear: Periodically inspect brushes for excessive wear or shedding bristles, and cleaning wires for bending or damage. Replace worn tools as necessary.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during the cleaning process, consider the following:
- Problem: Paint residue remains after cleaning.
Solution: Ensure adequate soaking time in solvent. Use a stronger solvent if necessary, ensuring it is compatible with your spray gun materials. Increase scrubbing intensity with appropriate brushes. - Problem: Cleaning wires or picks get stuck in passages.
Solution: Do not force the tool. Remove it and try a smaller size or apply more solvent to loosen the blockage. Inspect the passage for any damage or unusual obstructions. - Problem: Tools appear damaged or ineffective.
Solution: Replace any worn or damaged components of the cleaning kit to ensure effective and safe cleaning.
