Lacquer Conversion Kit
To spray lacquers and other solvent-based
flammable materials with models other than
ProX21, you must purchase a lacquer
conversion kit and follow Static Grounding
Instructions (Oil or Solvent-Based
Flammable Materials), page 30. Refer to
Parts List for kit part numbers.
Cleaning Fluid
Compatibility
• When spraying water-based materi-
als, flush the system thoroughly with
water.
• When spraying lacquers or oil-based
materials, flush the system thoroughly
with mineral spirits or compatible
oil-based flushing fluid and follow
Static Grounding Instructions (Oil or
Solvent-Based Flammable Materi-
als), page 30.
• To spray water-based materials after
spraying oil-based materials, flush the
system thoroughly with water first. The
water flowing out of Drain Tube should
be clear before you begin spraying the
water-based material.
• To spray lacquers or oil-based materi-
als after spraying water-based mate-
rials, flush the system thoroughly with
mineral spirits or a compatible oil-based
flushing fluid first. Follow Static
Grounding Instructions (Oil or Sol-
vent-Based Flammable Materials),
page 30. The fluid flowing out of the
Drain Tube should not contain any
water.
• To avoid fluid splashing back on your
skin or into your eyes, always aim gun
at inside wall of pail.
Static Grounding Instructions
(Oil or Solvent-Based
Flammable Materials)
Always use a metal pail for oil-based
materials when sprayer is flushed or pressure
is relieved.
Follow local code. Use only conductive metal
pails, placed on a grounded surface such as
concrete.
Do not place pail on a non-conductive surface
such as paper or cardboard which interrupts
grounding continuity.
Always ground a metal pail: connect a
ground wire to the pail. Clamp one end to the
pail and the other end to a true earth ground
such as a water pipe.
To maintain ground continuity when
sprayer is flushed or pressure is relieved:
hold metal part of gun firmly to the side of a
grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.
The equipment must be grounded to
reduce the risk of static sparking. Static
sparking can cause fumes to ignite or
explode. Grounding provides an escape
wire for the electric current.
