Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the needle, first depress the trigger and remove the old assembly by loosening the needle packing nut at the rear of the gun. Carefully slide the new SGK-0414 needle through the rear housing, ensuring it does not strike the fluid nozzle opening prematurely, which could cause damage. Once inserted, tighten the packing nut just enough to prevent leaks; overtightening will cause the needle to stick. For care, always flush the gun with an appropriate cleaning solvent immediately after use. Avoid using wire brushes or abrasive tools on the needle tip, as even minor scratches can permanently ruin the spray pattern.
