Normal Use

The manual spray gun PILOT III 2-K is designed exclusively for use with sprayable
two-component media. Since all parts that are in contact with the spraying media are
made from stainless steel, the high-precision model PILOT III 2-K is particularly sui-
table for the application of water-soluble two-component adhesives in the upholstery
and furniture industry. If other materials are to be used, please contact WALTHER
Spritz- und Lackiersysteme GmbH, Wuppertal.
Sprayable material should only be applied to work pieces or similar objects.
The temperature of the material to be sprayed should at no time exceed 43° C.
The term "normal use" also implies that any and all safety warnings and instructions
laid down in these operating instructions have been read, understood and are duly
complied with.
This equipment complies with the explosion protection requirements of Directive 94 /
9 / EC (ATEX) for the explosion group, equipment category and temperature class
indicated on the type plate. When using the equipment, the requirements specified in
these Operating Instructions must be observed at all times.
The technical data indicated on the equipment rating plates and the specifications in
the chapter "Technical Data" must be complied with at all times and must not be
exceeded. An overloading of the equipment must be ruled out.
The equipment may be used in potentially explosive atmospheres only with the
authorisation of the relevant supervisory authority.
The relevant supervisory authority or the operator of the equipment are

2 Technical Description
The material for component A (adhesive) is fed via link (6 mm ø). Component B
(activator) is supplied via the elbow screw joint (Item 7) (4 mm ø).
Material emerges from nozzle (Item 3; Component A) as well as from the horn at
air cap (Item 2; Component B). Mixing takes place in the spray jet itself.
The material is supplied via material pressure tanks or pump systems.
Bore for component A: optional
Bore for component B: optional
Material pressure for component A:
Material pressure for component B:
The exact pressure for both components can be established by comparison.
The TEFLON ® -coated body prevents sticking of spraying material and thus ensu-
res quick and easy cleaning. All parts in contact with the material are made from
stainless steel.
0.8 / 1.0 mm ø (Rotary jet)
0.3 / 0.4 / 0.5 mm ø
