09170 VOREL Assembly Foam Gun

The gun is made of stainless steel, brass, and resistant plastics. Some components are protected against aggressive foams with a PTFE/Teflon coating. For applying foam from standard screw-on containers.

Purpose/ApplicationThe gun is designed for applying polyurethane foam for construction, assembly, and insulation work.

Instructions for use1. Getting StartedShake the foam container vigorously for approximately 15 seconds. Lock the trigger lever by turning it counterclockwise so that the lever arm is in the recess in the gun housing. Remove the lid from the canister, and then screw the canister into the gun until resistance is felt. Any minor foam leaks should be immediately cleaned with a polyurethane foam cleaner. Unlock the trigger lever by turning it clockwise. Press the trigger lever and fill the gun with foam. The gun is ready for use. A stream of foam flows out when the trigger lever is pressed. Releasing the trigger lever stops the foam flow.

2. Post-Work ProceduresLock the trigger lever by turning it counterclockwise so that the lever arm is in the recess in the gun housing. It is recommended not to unscrew the foam canister from the gun. Ensure that the container is always screwed onto the gun, even if only partially filled. This keeps the foam inside the gun under pressure. This prevents the foam from drying out. If the gun is not used for more than a month, clean the gun with a construction foam cleaner. Do not allow the foam to dry inside the gun. Dried foam can only be removed mechanically.

3. Reusing the GunShake the gun vigorously with the container attached for approximately 15 seconds. Use a sharp knife to cut off the tip of the hardened foam. Unscrew the adjustment screw counterclockwise and release enough foam to create a uniform stream. After this, the gun is ready for use.4. Replacing the CanisterIf foam no longer comes out of the canister, replace it with a new one. To check if the canister is completely clear, point the nozzle towards a waste container and press the trigger until the gun nozzle is completely clear. Immediately install a new canister without cleaning the gun and proceed as described in step 1.5. Cleaning the GunUnscrew the canister from the gun. Attach the spray tip to the cleaning agent canister and clean any fresh foam residue from the gun. Remove the spray tip and screw the cleaning agent canister onto the gun. Proceed similarly as with the foam canister (step 1). Fill the gun with cleaning agent and let it sit for approximately 10 minutes. Press the trigger again and clean the inside of the gun with fresh cleaning agent. Unscrew the cleaning agent canister. Use a cloth to remove any remaining cleaning agent from the connection between the canister and the gun and cover it with a thin layer of petroleum jelly. Do not clean the gun with corrosive agents. If the gun is used continuously, clean the gun as described above every 2-3 months.
