INTRODUCTION
The Binks MACH PLURAL COMPONENT 1PCX HVLP Gun is the lightest top quality high performance spray gun available today. You only have to pick it up to feel the difference. It's superbly balanced forged aluminum body offers the operator extra comfort and control. All of the gun's components are machined and finished to exacting tolerances and only the best materials are used, ensuring years of peak efficiency.
The MACH 1PCX HVLP Gun is a conventional style airspray gun with special nozzles and modifications that allow it to operate at high transfer efficiencies in compliance with the "California South Coast Air Quality Management District" regulations as a "High Volume, Low Pressure airspray gun.
A specially designed catalyst injector device is integrated to the HVLP Gun to inject Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide or other catalyst into the stream of coating material. The catalyst is injected immediately after the coating exits the fluid nozzle for even distribution across the pattern.
The air inlet passage in the gun body incorporates a venturi which limits airflow. High pressure airflow is converted to low pressure at this point. Special air and fluid nozzles enable the gun to atomize fluid at low air pressures and velocities, creating the "soft spray" effect for high transfer efficiencies. To obtain optimum performance from your new MACH 1PCX HVLP Spray Gun, read all instructions carefully.

| OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MACH 1 PCX HVLP SPRAY GUN |
| |
Your new MACH 1PCX HVLP Spray Gun is exceptionally rugged in construction and is built to stand up under hard , continuous use. However, like any other fine precision instrument, its most efficient operation depends on a knowledge of its construction, operation and maintenance. Properly handled and cared for, it will produce uniform finishing and mixing results long after other spray guns have worn out.
IMPORTANT: Before removing any components from the spray gun, shut off the air and material presssure, and bleed off excess material.
BINKS OIL AND WATER EXTRACTOR IS IMPORTANT
Achieving a fine spray finish without the use of a good oil and water extractor is virtually impossible.
A Binks Regulator/Extractor serves a double purpose. It eliminates blistering and spotting by keeping air free of oil and water, and it gives precise air pressure control at the gun. An extractor with a minimum 1/2" pipe inlet is recommended.
SET-UP FOR SPRAYING
CONNECTING GUN TO THE AIR HOSE
Air should be supplied by 5/16" air hose (71-1203) typical, with a 1/4" NPS(f) connection at the gun end. Hose lengths in excess of 50 ft, use 3/8" hose (71-1356) typical.
CONNECTING THE GUN TO THE MATERIAL HOSE
Fluid should be supplied by 3/8" fluid hose with 3/8" NPS(f) connection at the gun end. A 1/4" hose is recommended for use with low viscosity materials. Fluid hoses of different composition are available for special fluids.
CONNECTING THE GUN TO THE CATALYST HOSE
The catalyst should be supplied by 1/8" catalyst hose (102-3027) typical, with a 316 SS l/4" NPS(f) connections at both ends. |

OPERATING THE MACH
CONTROLLING THE FAN SPRAY
The fan pattern is controlled by means of a side port control. Turning this control clockwise until it is closed will give a round spray, turning it counter-clockwise will widen the spray into a fan shape. The air cap cannot be rotated (See drawing below).
CONTROLLING THE MATERIAL FLOW
When used with a pressure tank, an increase in air pressure will increase the rate of flow. The correct fluid nozzle size should be selected for the correct material flow rate. It is not recommended to use the fluid control knob (item 13), to control resin flow because the catalyst flow will remain constant, causing over cat-alyzation of the resin.
NOTE: Feathering and changing the needle valve opening will affect the ratio of catalyst: resin and gel.
NOZZLE TYPES
Spray patterns are determined by nozzle selection and vary somewhat depending on size, angle, nozzle orifice and output.
TROUBLESHOOTING FAULTY SPRAY
Faulty spray is often caused by:
1. Foreign material in the air and/or fluid passages.
2. Viscosity too high for spraying, air supply or pressure inadequate.
3. Worn or damaged nozzle surfaces.
4. Gellation in gun head air passages.
5. Loose fluid nozzle.
6. Insufficient material available, check supply and replenish if necessary.
NOTE: Care must be exercised when cleaning with metal instruments. These parts are carefully machined and any damage to them will cause faulty spray patterns. If either the air nozzle or fluid nozzle are damaged, these parts must be replaced before perfect spray patterns can be obtained.
AIR LEAKS
1. Leaky Spindle (9). Inspect, clean or replace.
2. O-Rings (6) missing or damaged. Inspect and replace.
3. Damaged seat surface in gun body. Replace.
UNMIXED RESIN
1. Clogged filter. Remove the manifold and clean debris from the filter screen.
2. Plugged manifold. Use 102-2658 manifold cleaner to unplug.
3. Insufficient catalyst pressure. Increase pressure.
4. Loose catalyst needle nuts. Readjust, tighten.
OVER CATALYZATION
1. Material Knob (13) has been closed to reduce the flow of resin. Readjust.
2. Fluid Nozzle (2) is partially clogged and is restricting the resin flow. Clean. |

TO REPLACE SPINDLE ASSEMBLY (Air Valve)
Remove the Fluid Control Knob (13), Spring (10) and Needle Assembly (12). Using an Allen Head Wrench, loosen the Housing (11) until it is finger tight. Reinsert Needle (12) and finish unscrewing Housing (11). Remove Items 6 thru 12 as one piece. Replace Spindle Ass'y (9) and reinsert items 6 thru 12, as one piece, back into gun and hand-tighten Housing (11). Next, remove Needle (12) and tighten Housing (11) with Allen Head Wrench. Reinsert Needle (12), Spring (10) and Fluid Control Knob (13).
NOTE: Springs must be replaced in the same order as they were removed from gun.
NOTE: If the instructions are not followed as described, Items 12 and 13 may drop into air passages.
TO REPLACE NEEDLE SEAL AND GLAND ADAPTER IN FLUID INLET
Remove Fluid Control Knob (13) and Spring (10) and pull out Needle Ass'y (12). Unscrew Packing Nut (25) and remove Spring (24) and Seal Backup (23). Using a No. 10 X 1 1/4" coarse thread wood screw (Binks Part No. 20-6536) or a small sheet metal screw, remove the Needle Seal (22) and Gland Adapter (21). Replace Gland Adapter (21) and Needle Seal (22). Reinsert Seal Backup (23), Spring (24) and screw on Packing Nut (25) a couple of turns so it fits loosely by hand. Reassemble Needle (12), Spring (10) and Material Valve Control Knob (13). Finally, tighten Packing Nut (25) until it bottoms out on Fluid Inlet (18).
ADJUSTMENT OF MATERIAL AND CATALYST NEEDLE
The needle assembly is adjustable for lengths by means of the needle, needle cap and needle locknut. These should be adjusted so that when the trigger assembly is in contact with the spindle assembly, a movement of the spindle assembly of 1/16" minimum is required before the material needle moves. Under no circumstances should the material valve open before the air valve or catalyst valve assembly. The correct timing adjustment is: air catalyst-resin. The timing is correctly set at the factory. However, repositioning the catalyst needle nuts will affect the timing.
GUN CLEANING
Submerging in solvents is a poor practice because of the solvent residue that may cling to interior air passages. Clean solvent must be used if the gun is to be submerged.
The best practice is to remove the air nozzle and to flush solvent through the fluid passages. All nozzles may be placed in solvent for washing. The nozzle orifice and angle passageways are critical. Always wsh and rinse with a clean solvent to prevent residue accumulation in the minute holes. If using metal instruments for cleaning, use extreme caution. DO NOT gouge or distort surfaces. Use the brush supplied with the gun.
NOTE: Some air quality agencies prohibit the spraying of solvent into the atmosphere when flushing spray guns. In some areas spray guns must be cleaned in a completely enclosed gun cleaning device wiiich prevents solvent vapors from escaping to the atmosphere. Consult with your local Binks distributor or contact the closest Binks branch if you are not sure of requirements in your area. |

GENERAL SPRAY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce overspray and obtain maximum efficiency, always spray with the lowest possible fluid/air pressure. This will produce an acceptable spray pattern. Excessive atomizing air pressures can increase overspray, reduce transfer efficiency, and with some materials, atomizing air pressures should not exceed 10 PSI. See the table in the air pressure recommendation and regulatory note on page 8. For best results, use only enough presure for desired flow (1.5-2 pounds.). Higher fluid pressure may be required for heavy bodied materials, low fluid pressures will produce a narrower than normal spray pattern.
SPRAY TECHNIQUE
The first requirement for a good resultant finish is the proper handling of the gun. The gun should be held perpendicular to the surface being covered and moved parallel with it. The distance between the gun and surface should be 12 to 14 inches, depending on material and atomizing pressure. The material deposited should always be even and wet. Lap each stroke over the preceeding stroke to obtain a uniform finish. |
