To replace a barrel assembly, push the barrel assembly into the gun body 

until it clicks to a stop.  To assure proper seating of the barrel, open the drive/

idler roll door in the top of the handle.  The rear face of the barrel should

 is designed to provide 

years of reliable service.  Maintenance of the gun will normally consist of a 

general cleaning of the wire guide system, including barrels, drive rolls, and 

conduits at regular intervals.
Remove spatter build-up from inside of nozzles with a hardwood stick.
The only parts that are subject to normal wear are the conduit, contact tips, 

nozzles, barrel liners, wire guides, drive and idler rolls.  A supply of these 

parts should be maintained on hand.
The number of units in operation and the importance of minimal down time 

will determine to what extent spare parts should be stocked on hand.  See 

the recommended spare parts list for the most commonly replaced parts. 
It is recommended that you blow out your conduit each time you install a new 

spool of wire.
If repairs do become necessary, qualified shop maintenance personnel can 

easily replace any part.
