Automatic Pro Gun Manual SAFETY & WARNING INFORMATION: OPERATING YOUR POLYESTER SYSTEM SAFELY 1. Introduction Any tool, if used improperly, can be dangerous. Safety is ultimately the responsibility of those using the tool. In like manner, safe operation of polyester processes is the responsibility of those who use such processes and those who operate the equipment. This manual outlines procedures to be followed in conducting polyester operations safety.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Type of Fire Extinguishing equipment recommended: Fire Extinguisher – code ABC, rating number 4a60bc. Extinguishing Media – Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Water Fog. Copies of the above bulletins are available, at a nominal charge from: National Fire Protection Association 470 Atlantic Avenue Boston, MA 02210 Research Report No.11 of the American Insurance Association deal with “Fire, Explosion and Health Hazards of Organic Peroxides”.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual 2.2 Catalyst (Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide) MEKP is among the more hazardous materials found in commercial channels. The safe handling of the “unstable (reactive)” chemicals presents a definite challenge to the plastics industry.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual C. Prevent contamination of MEKP with other materials, including polyester over spray and sandings, polymerization accelerators and promoters, brass, aluminum and non-stainless steels. D. Never add MEKP to anything that is hot, since explosive decomposition may result. E. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Protective equipment should be worn at all times. During clean-up of spilled MEKP, personal safety equipment, gloves and eye protection must be worn.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual When all three elements are present, the result can be an extremely violent explosion. The reaction can be sustained with very little aluminum or galvanized metal; any amount of aluminum is too much. A. The reaction is unpredictable. Prior use of an HHC solvent without incident (corrosion or explosion) does NOT mean that such use is safe. These solvents can be dangerous alone (as a clean-up or flushing agent) or when used as a component or a coating material.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual G. Adequate ventilation (as covered in OSHA Section 1910.94 and NFPA No.91) is important wherever solvents are stored or used, to minimize, confine and exhaust the solvent vapors. H. Solvents should be handled in accordance with OSHA Section 1910.106 and 1910.107. 2.4 Catalyst Diluents Magnum Venus Plastech spray-up and gel-coat systems currently produced are designed so that catalyst diluents are not required. Magnum Venus Plastech, therefore, recommends that diluents not be used.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual 2.7 Toxicity of Chemicals A. Magnum Venus Plastech recommends that you consult OSHA Sections 1910.94, 1910.106, 1910.107 and NFPA No.33, Chapter 14, and NFPA No.91. B. Contact your chemical supplier(s) and determine the toxicity of the various chemicals used as well as the best methods to prevent injury, irritation and danger to personnel. C. Also determine the best methods of first aid treatment for each chemical used in your plant. 2.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual 3.0 Equipment Safety WARNING Magnum Venus Plastech suggests that personal safety equipment such as EYE GOGGLES, GLOVES, EAR PROTECTION, and RESPIRATORS be worn when servicing or operating this equipment. Ear protection should be worn when operating a fiberglass chopper to protect against hearing loss since noise levels can be as high as 116 dB (decibels).
Automatic Pro Gun Manual 3.2 Grounding Grounding an object means providing an adequate path for the flow of the electrical charge from the object to the ground. An adequate path is one that permits charge to flow from the object fast enough that it will not accumulate to the extent that a spark can be formed. It is not possible to define exactly what will be an adequate path under all conditions since it depends on many variables.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Introduction: The Auto Pro Gun is an air trigger gun; meaning when an air signal is sent the actuator the actuator piston pushes on the actuator stem and rotates the gun block into the on position. The Auto Pro Gun works very similar to a dual ball valve in that the valve rod rotates and the catalyst and resin holes line up with the ports in the gun block allowing material to flow.

Remove the quick pin from the top of the catalyst pump and upper slave arm. 2. Tilt the catalyst pump away from the resin pump until the catalyst pump is resting against the vertical connecting post. 3.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Gun Disassembly: WARNING: To prevent injury, be sure all air is disconnected from the gun and that all pressure has been relieved before attempting to remove trigger guard. Note: The bolt that secures the trigger guard to the air cylinder also serves as a plug for the end cap. Removing this bolt can result in injury from escaping pressurized air if air pressure is not relieved. 1. Check to be sure all air is disconnected from the gun 2.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Remove Actuating Stem 1. Unscrew the actuating stem from the valve rod. Tightly clamp the actuating stem into a soft jawed vise and rotate the whole gun block. Note: The screw driver slot in the end of the actuating stem should not be used for removal as if it becomes damaged the stem will not fit into the actuator bushing. Make sure the actuating stem is smooth or it will wear out the actuator bushing. ACTUATOR STEM Remove & Disassemble Flush Valve Assembly 1.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Remove Mix Housing 1. Remove the nozzle cap from the mix housing. 2. Remove the nozzle from the cap. 3. Remove the mix housing (5104-20-1) by unscrewing the screws holding the mix housing to the gun block. 4. Pull the injector and injector seal out and set the injector assembly aside. 5. Use the turbulent mixer puller to remove the turbulent mixer by inserting the puller and giving a slight twist. 6.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Remove Hose Fittings 1. Remove and clean the catalyst fitting and o-ring on the rear of the gun block. 2. Remove and clean the resin fitting and o-ring on the rear of the gun block. Remove Valve Rod 1.

Automatic Pro Gun Manual Remove Catalyst and Resin Seals 1. Insert the seal installation tool into one of the side ports and gently tap it completely through the gun block with a rubber or hammer mallet. As the tool is tapped through the interior of the gun block it will remove the seal sets for both the resin and the catalyst sides. 2. Remove catalyst and resin seal (relief spacer and secondary seal) from the seal installation tool. Clean with solvent.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Gun Block Assembly: Clean Block Assembly • • • Discard o-rings and seals. Clean remaining components with solvent and allow to air dry. You have now disassembled the gun block. Install Secondary Seals 1. Place one of the secondary seals (5104-3-1) into the center of the gun block where the center spacer goes. Gently push the secondary seal into position with something flat, flush with the gun block. Use caution not to damage it the seal. 2.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Reassemble Catalyst Components 1. Place the catalyst components onto the seal installation tool in the following order: • Packing ring (5104-7-1) • Catalyst seal (5104-6-1) • Relief spacer (5104-4-1) Note: The hole in the catalyst seal should be aligned with the port in the gun block before inserting the seal installation tool into the gun block.

Note: At this point, the catalyst side packing nut should only be hand tight. Reassemble Resin Components 1.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Install Valve Rod 1. Insert the valve rod (5104-2-1) into the gun block through the resin side. Use a packing tool to center the valve rod. Note: Make sure that the valve rod is correctly aligned; the larger hole goes on the resin side, while the smaller hole goes on the catalyst side. Note: The middle hole, into which the actuating stem will be inserted, must also be correctly aligned.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Reinstall Check Valve on International Pro Guns DANGER: To replace this valve, contact Magnum Venus Plastech. These valves have undergone specific remanufacture at Magnum Venus Plastech for the Pro Gun ™. Using a check valve not obtained directly from Magnum Venus Plastech may result in contamination and / or dangerous ignition of the catalyst. 1. Reinstall the check valve (5104-04-01) and o-ring (O-S-5-125) into the side port on the catalyst side of the gun block.
Automatic Pro Gun Manual Optional Flush Valve Configurations: There are several variations on the flush valve assembly to include air / solvent purge and high pressure flush. Check the parts drawing for the valve assembly installed on your gun assembly.
