Flush the Equipment
(Solvent-Based Materials)
• Flush before changing materials, before fluid can
dry or cure in the equipment, at the end of the day,
before storing, and before repairing equipment.
• Flush with a fluid that is compatible with the fluid
being dispensed and the equipment wetted parts.
• Flush at the lowest pressure possible. Check con-
nectors for leaks and tighten as necessary.
• Do not leave the applicator or any parts in water or
cleaning solvents.

and waste container. To avoid static sparking and
injury from splashing, always flush at the lowest
possible pressure.
