Maintenance and Cleaning
- Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
- To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
- Thoroughly clean the individual parts of the fine-spray system immediately after each use, especially all paint-carrying components. Proper cleaning is a prerequisite for faultless and safe operation of the spray gun. No warranty claims will be accepted if cleaning has not been done at all or has not been done properly.
Always clean the spray gun and the spray material container with warm water.
Never clean the nozzle and air holes in the spray gun with pointed objects.
- Switch off the base unit (19) and remove the air hose (17) from the spray gun (1).
- Remove the container (7) from the spray gun (1).
Hold the container (7) underneath the suction tube (12) and pull the trigger switch (6) on the spray gun so that the spray material can flow back into the container. - Empty the container (7).
The spray material can be stored in an airtight, sealed paint container for other applications. Use the spare container (8) with cover or the original spray material container, for example, for this purpose. - Clean the container (7).
- Remove the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14) and rinse it thoroughly.
Reattach the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14) to the spray gun. - Fill the container (7) with warm water and fit it to the spray gun (1)again.
- Connect the air hose (17) to the spray gun (1)again.
- Spray until only clear water comes out. You may have to fill the container with warm water again.
- Remove the air hose (17) from both the base unit (19) and the spray gun (1).
- Clean the base unit if necessary with a moistened cloth and then remove the base unit (19) and the air hose (17) from the immediate cleaning environment.
- Remove the cap nut (3), the air cap (2), the gasket (11) and the nozzle cap (9) with the O-ring (10) and the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14).
When doing so, ensure that the O-ring (10) remains on the nozzle cap. - Clean all paint-carrying parts in a bucket with warm water using a commercially available washing-up brush. Also clean the paint channel (16) of the spray gun (1).
- Check that the suction tube (12) and the container seal (14) are free of spray material and undamaged.
- Clean the ventilation hole (15) using an appropriate cleaning brush.
- Clean the outside of the container (7) and the spray gun (1)with a damp cloth.
- Allow all components to dry thoroughly before assembling them.
- Reassemble the fine-spray system in reverse order.
Slide the container seal (14) upwards again into the groove of the suction tube (12).
Ensure that the container seal is positioned precisely all around in the suction tube groove in order to seal the spray gun correctly.
Make sure that you slide the suction tube (12) all the way back onto the paint channel (16).
Always clean the spray gun and the container for the spray material with the respective diluting agent for the spray material being used.
Never clean the nozzle and air holes in the spray gun with pointed objects.
Wear suitable gloves during cleaning work involving solvents and solvent-based paints.
- Switch off the base unit (19) and remove the air hose (17) from the spray gun (1).
- Clean the base unit if necessary with a cloth moistened with diluting agent and then remove the base unit (19) and the air hose (17) from the immediate cleaning environment.
- Remove the container (7) from the spray gun (1).
Hold the container (7) underneath the suction tube (12) and pull the trigger switch (6) on the spray gun so that the spray material can flow back into the container. - Empty the container (7).
The spray material can be stored in an airtight, sealed paint container for other applications. Use the spare container (8) with cover or the original spray material container, for example, for this purpose. - Clean the container (7).
- Remove the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14) and rinse it thoroughly.
Reattach the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14) to the spray gun. - Fill the container (7) halfway with solvent and fit it to the spray gun (1)again.
- Shake the spray gun several times.
Make sure that you do not spray the diluting agent. There is a risk of explosion. - Remove the container (7) from the spray gun (1)and empty it completely into a sealable material tin.
- Remove the cap nut (3), the air cap (2), the gasket (11) and the nozzle cap (9) with the O-ring (10) and the suction tube (12) with the container seal (14).
When doing so, ensure that the O-ring (10) remains on the nozzle cap. - Clean all paint-carrying parts in a bucket with diluting agent using a commercially available washing-up brush. Also clean the paint channel (16) of the spray gun (1).
- Check that the suction tube (12) and the container seal (14) are free of spray material and undamaged.
If required, clean the container seal (14) again with diluting agent. - Clean the ventilation hole (15) using an appropriate cleaning brush.
- Allow all components to dry thoroughly before assembling them.
- Reassemble the fine-spray system in reverse order.

The air filter (28) must be cleaned occasionally. The air filter must be replaced if it is heavily contaminated.
- Open the air filter cover (23).
- Remove the air filter (28).
- Light contamination:
Knock on the air filter (28).
or
Heavy contamination:
Clean the air filter (28) under running water and subsequently leave it to dry thoroughly, in order to prevent mould from forming.
or
Replace the air filter (28). - Reinsert the air filter.
- Close the air filter cover (23) again.
- Never use the fine-spray system without air filter. Dirt particles may get into the motor compartment and damage it.
Contaminated diluting agent, remnants of spray material and, if applicable, remnants of diluting agent must be disposed of properly and in an environmentally friendly manner. Observe the manufacturer's disposal information and the local regulations for disposal of hazardous waste.
Chemicals harmful to the environment may not be disposed of into soil, groundwater or bodies of water. Never pour chemicals harmful to the environment into the sewerage system.
- Before putting the fine-spray system into storage, thoroughly clean the fine-spray system and allow all parts to dry completely before assembling them.
If the fine-spray system is not being used, the elastic band together with the pin on the base unit (19) serve as a practical storage option for the air hose (17) (see figure ).
