er.

provided with it. Before cleaning, make sure air is released from air
passages.
_ Only use suitable cleaner designed for your spray gun washer.

Use of cleaner with waterborne coatings, can increase PH level, especial-
ly after several cleanings. Please, replace the cleaner regularly in order to
always ensure the best spray gun performance.
