Grounding
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, and
serious injury, proper electrical grounding of every part of your system is essential. Read the warning section Fireand Explosion Hazard on page 4, and
follow the grounding instructions below.
The following grounding instructions are minimum
requirements for a basic dispensing system. Your
system may include other equipment or objects which
must be grounded. Check your local electrical code for
detailed grounding instructions for your area and type
of equipment. Your system must be connected to a
true-earth ground.
D Pump: ground the pump by connecting ground wire
and clamp as described in your separate pump
instruction manual.
D Fluid supply container: ground according to your
local code.
D Flammable liquids in the spray area: must be in
approved, grounded containers. Do not store more
than the quantity needed for one shift.
D All solvent pails used when flushing: ground
according to local code. Use only metal pails, which
are conductive. Do not place the pail on a
non-conductive surface, such as paper or
cardboard, which interrupts the grounding
continuity.
D To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure, hold a metal part of the valve
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then
trigger the valve.
How to Use the Valve Trigger Safety
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
To prevent accidental triggering of the
gun and reduce the risk of a serious inju-
ry, including fluid injection or splashing in
the eyes or on the skin, lock the gun trigger safety
when you stop dispensing.
1. If you are using one of the hand-held versions of
the valve, lock the valve trigger safety by turning
the latch to a right angle with the gun body. See
Fig. 2.
D Air compressors and hydraulic power supplies:
ground the equipment according to the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
D Fluid hoses: use only grounded fluid hoses with a
maximum of 500 feet (150 m) combined hose
length to ensure grounding continuity. Check the
electrical resistance of your fluid hoses at least
once a week. If your hose does not have a tag on it
which specifies the maximum electrical resistance,
contact the hose supplier or manufacturer for the
maximum electrical resistance limits, replace the
hose immediately.
D Dispensing valve: ground the valve by connecting it
to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

Operation
WARNING
COMPONENT RUPTURE HAZARD
To reduce the risk of over-pressurization,
which can cause component rupture and
serious injury, never exceed 3000 psi (21
MPa, 207 bar) fluid pressure, or 120 psi (0.84 MPa,
8.4 bar) air pressure to the valve.
Electric Switch Hand Held Valve
D Be sure the air supply lines are connected correctly
to the OPEN and CLOSE valve air ports.
D To open or close the valve and maintain the open or
closed status, a minimum of 40 psi (280 kPa, 2.8
bar) air pressure must be supplied and maintained
at the OPEN or CLOSE port.
Pressure Relief Procedure
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually
relieved to prevent the system from
starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid
under high pressure can be injected through the
skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of
an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving
parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
whenever you:
D are instructed to relieve the pressure
D stop dispensing
D check or service any of the system equipment
D install or clean the nozzle
1. Shut off the air to the dispense valve, if applicable.
2. Shut off the air to the supply pumps.
3. Close the bleed-type master air valve (required in
your system).
4. Hold a metal part of the valve firmly to the side of a
grounded metal pail, and trigger the dispense
valve to relieve pressure.
5. Open the fluid drain valve (required in your
system), having a grounded metal container ready
to catch the drainage.
D The trigger only activates the electrical switch in the
handle, which turns the remote solenoid on and off.
D Trigger the gun to turn the solenoid on. Release the
trigger to turn the solenoid off.
Machine Mount Valve
D Be sure the air supply lines are connected correctly
to the OPEN and CLOSE valve air ports.
D To open or close the valve and maintain the open or
closed status, a minimum of 40 psi (280 kPa, 2.8
bar) air pressure must be supplied and maintained
at the OPEN or CLOSE port.
To open the valve:
1. Apply air pressure to the OPEN air port on the
valve, and remove air pressure from the CLOSE
air port on the valve.
2. Maintain air pressure on the OPEN air port to keep
the valve open.
To close the valve:
1. Apply air pressure to the CLOSE air port on the
valve, and remove air pressure from the OPEN air
port on the valve.
2. Maintain air pressure to the CLOSE air port to
keep the valve closed.
6. Leave the fluid drain valve open until you are ready
to dispense again.
If you suspect that the dispense needle or hose is
completely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully
relieved after following the steps above, very slowly
loosen the needle retaining nut or hose end coupling
and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely.
Now clear the needle or hose.

Operation
Air Switch Hand Held Valve
The valve operation is such that there are only two
valve conditions: either fully open or fully closed.
The valve is opened and closed by the internal air
control valve. Trigger the gun to open the valve.
Release the trigger to close the valve.
Shaft Stroke Adjustment (Models 965766,
965767, 965768, and 965786 only)
Adjust the shaft stroke to balance the valve between
“snuff-back” and “push-out”.
D A long stroke will give maximum snuff-back but it
may cause push-out when the valve opens.
D Shortening the stroke of the shaft will minimize the
material pushed out when the valve opens and will
also increase the material back pressure through
the valve.
To adjust the shaft stroke:
1. Loosen the hex nut (44) from the adjustment nut
(43).
DThe valve is at full stroke when the hex nut
(44) is at the end of the adjustment shaft (42).
DAdjusting the nut (44) on the shaft (42)
towards the valve, or clockwise, will reduce the
stroke length.
DAdjusting the nut away from the valve, or
counterclockwise, will lengthen the stroke.
3. Tighten the hex nut (44) to the adjustment nut (43)
to set the adjustment.

2. Adjust the nut (44) along the adjustment shaft (42)
to the desired position.
Maintenance
Preventative Maintenance
There is a grease filled secondary seal/bearing area on
the valve shaft. Every 10,000 cycles, or twice each
month, new grease should be flushed across this area.
Each valve has two flush grease fittings. A small
grease gun is provided with each valve.
Fig. 4
To grease the valve:
1. Remove the grease fitting from one side of the
gun.
2. Pump grease (Part No. 115982) across the valve
until clear grease comes out of the other side.
3. Reinstall the grease fitting.

Reassembly
Air Cylinder Section
1. Lubricate the shaft o-rings (4) and the bearings (5)
with grease supplied in the repair kit. Insert o-rings
into the air cylinder (1) and air cap (11) cavities.
See Fig. 5.
2. Press the bearings (5) flush into the air cylinder
housing and air cap, trapping the o-rings (4).
3. Lubricate and reassemble the piston assembly;
piston (10), o-ring (9), dowel pin (7), o-ring (6), and
shaft (3). Tighten the jam nut (45) to 15–20 in-lb
(1.7–2.2 NSm). The shaft (3) should hang with
some play to be self-aligning in the bearing.
4. Lubricate the air cylinder (1) ID with the grease
supplied. Push the piston (10) assembly into the
air cylinder.
5. Orient the air inlet manifold (2) (if used) as shown.
Match the gasket openings to the air ports.
Fluid Section
1. Lubricate the bearing (21), o-ring (16) and cup seal
(20). Put the o-ring (16) on the bearing. Carefully
insert the seal (20) into the bearing recess, with
the lips of the o-ring facing into the bearing. Be
careful not to damage the seal lips.
2. Push the bearing (21) seal end first into the
housing (19). Be sure that the grease hole in the
side of the bearing lines up with the grease ports in
the housing (19).
3. Holding the bearing (21) in place, push the bearing
assembly over the shaft (3).
4. Lubricate the main fluid seal (22) and its cavity in
the housing (26). Carefully press the seal, lip-first,
into the housing.
5. Push the housing (26) and seal (22) over the shaft
(3) and up against the bearing housing.
6. Apply Loctite Primer N7649 and Loctite TL242,
243, or equivalent (“blue” Loctite) to the fluid
housing screws (23) and loosely install the screws
to retain the housings. Do not tighten the screws
yet.
7. Insert the gasket (38) and seat (25). These items
are reversible and can be installed in either
direction.
8. Apply Loctite Primer N7649 and Loctite TL242,
243, or equivalent (“blue” Loctite) to needle (27)
and tighten to 15–20 in–lb (1.7–2.2 NSm).
9. Apply air pressure to the CLOSE port, or to the
pneumatic trigger valve if installed. This will align
the shaft, seal, and bearing. Tighten the fluid
housing screws (23) oppositely and evenly to
40–45 in-lbs (4.5–5 NSm).
10. Install the nosepiece (40) with the PTFE o-ring
(39), screw (15), and snuff-back ring (41), if used.
The snuff-back ring has an internal bevel on one
end which faces into the nosepiece. Tighten the
nosepiece screws to 15–20 in-lbs (1.7–2.2 NSm).
