E. SETTINGS AFTER WORK
1.
SETTINGS AFTER WORK
Close the air closing lever.
Turn the heater adjust dial off.
Disconnect the shop air hose.
Disconnect the 120V power supply cable and ground
cable.
Cover the guns and wands with plastic wrap to protect
them from dust.
Close the lid of the wax pail securely and wrap the cover of
the pail with plastic wrap. Store the wax pail indoors
avoiding any heat source.
NOTE:
The wax can be used for 2 months once opened. After
that it must be replaced with new wax.
25
F. REMOVAL PARTS
Reference the appropriate repair manual on TIS for parts removal procedures.
26
G. MASKING AROUND WORK STALL
NOTE:
Depending on the shop layout, it may be necessary to put barriers to prevent accidental over spray
Masking on the floor is unnecessary. (if wax falls from the frame, clean the spill right away to avoid a
fall hazard)
1.
VEHICLE MASKING
NOTE:
In this work, masking needs to be done only partially as
the drips and scattering are few.
Using an infrared thermometer ensure the exhaust has
cooled.
Cover the holes from which wax can spill out using shop
cloths or the likes.
Protect each brake tube as the wand may hit them.
(LH Side Only)
27
2.
PLUG HOLES IN THE FRAME
Apply all the plugs other than the ones indicated with stars (★) on Hole Plugs Installation Check Sheet found
in appendix.
DO NOT install the plugs indicated with stars (★) until the wax application is completed. Those
plug holes will be used when inserting a wand to apply wax.
NOTE:
• You may have to remove certain stickers to install optional equipment.
• Some vehicles may not have plug holes or may have plugs already installed depending on the
vehicle specification or model year.
• Make sure all the plugs are flush with the frame.
• Make sure the surface of the frame is clean before you apply stickers.
Apply masking tape to the holes shown in the illustration from which wax can spill out.
NOTE:
The masking tape has to be applied on both LH and RH side of the frame even when the illustrations
show only one side.
28
H. APPLY WAX WITH SHORT WAND
Before starting this process, review the SCK0D E-Learning Spray
Application section for key details
1.
PREPARE FOR WAX APPLICATION
CHECK THE REMAINING WAX AMOUNT
1. Check that more than 1/3 of wax is in the wax pail.
If not, add NEW wax to fill up the can.
The wax level must NOT be less than
1/4 as the pump starts suctioning air.
NOTE :
1 wax pail (18 Liters) is for 3 to 4 vehicles.
CHECK PUMP CYCLE RATE
Standard Value: 7 - 10 times/mins
NOTE:
If the pump cycle rate is faster or slower than the
standard value, turn the back pressure regulator to
adjust the rate within the range.
CHECK EACH PRESSURE
Standard Value:
• Pump output pressure: 14MPa (2031 psi)
• High pressure: 12 MPa (1741 psi)
• Sealer pressure: 0.5 - 4 MPa (73 - 580 psi)
NEVER set the pressures to be over
the specified values.
CHECK WAX TEMPERATURE
Standard Value: 40 ºC (104 ºF)
DO NOT warm up the wax temperature
higher than 50 ºC (122 ºF)
29
CHECK SPRAY PATTERN
1. Connect the short wand to the high pressure spray gun.
2. Weigh the empty cup and zero the scale
3. Spray 1 shot of wax on Paint Prep cup (Φ 10 - 15 cm (3.94 - 5.91 in.) for paint work).
4. Visually inspect the wax discharged from 5 orifices is continuously connected.
(Refer to XII. C. WAND SPECIFICATION)
CHECK WAX DISCHARGE AMOUNT
1. Measure the weight of the empty Paint Prep cup.
2. Spray 10 shots of wax into Paint Prep cup and measure the entire weight.
NOTE:
• Fully pull the spray gun trigger to stabilize the discharge amount of wax per shot.
• You may need to practice to be able to spray 10 g (0.353 oz.) of wax per shot.
• DO NOT spray 10 shots continuously as the pressure lowers.
3. Subtract the weight of Paint Prep cup and calculate the weight of 1 shot.
Standard Value: 100 – 120 g (3.53 - 4.23 oz.) [10 - 12 g (0.353 - 0.423 oz.) per shot]
• When replacing the high pressure wands (short or long), make sure to perform the checks
shown above every time.
• If the gun trigger is pulled when the pump is operating, wax cannot be applied properly.
In such a case, redo the procedure to check properly.
• DO NOT DISCARD INITIAL SPRAY CHECK CUP. You will need to upload an image of the spray
cup at a later step
CHECK WAND TOP MARKS
1. Confirm that the TOP marks on the wand are on the
upper side when using the high pressure spray gun
with short or long wand.
(Refer to XII. C. WAND SPECIFICATION)
30
2.
INSERT FROM THE INNER APPLICATION HOLE TOWARDS FRONT
* The illustrations show RH side only. Use the same procedure for LH side.
If the gun trigger is pulled when the pump is operating, wax cannot be applied properly.
In such a case, spray wax again at the same place.
Insert the short wand forward up to mark 1 so that the wand
touches the middle of the side of the application hole.
Spray 1 shot to apply wax.
Pull back the wand 1 notch and spray 1 shot.
Repeat step c) until the gun hits the frame crossmember
sub-assembly No.3.
Change the wand angle upward at the position where the
gun hit the frame crossmember sub-assembly No.3.
NOTE:
• Place the wand so that it touches the opposing
corners of the application hole.
• Be cautious as the spraying interval will change
because the notch will be at every 5 mm (0.197 in.)
at the last part of the wand.
31
Spray 1 shot and repeat step c) until Mark 5 appears.
When spraying the last few shots, cover the application hole
with your hand so that wax does not splash out.
Apply masking tape on the application hole.
3.
REINSTALL THE FRONT SUSPENSION MEMBER
BRACKET (IF EQUIPPED)
Reinstall the front suspension member bracket.
Torque: 33 N*m (337 kgf*cm, 24 ft.*lbf)
Be sure to install at this step.
32
4.
INSERT FROM THE INNER OPENING TOWARDS FRONT
* The illustrations show RH side only. Perform the same procedure for LH side.
If the gun trigger is pulled when the pump is operating, wax cannot be applied properly.
In such a case, spray wax again at the same place.
Insert the short wand into the gap above the bulkhead forward, up to Mark 2.
NOTE:
The wand should be placed at the center of the gap.
Spray 2 shots.
Pull back the wand 10 mm (0.394 in.) and spray 2 shots.
33
Repeat step c) until Mark 4 comes to the reference line.
Insert the short wand into the gap below the bulkhead forward, up to Mark 2.
NOTE:
The wand should be placed at the center of the gap.
Spray 2 shots.
Pull back the wand 10 mm (0.394 in.) and spray 2 shots.
Repeat step g) until Mark 4 comes to the reference line.
34
Insert the short wand into the center hole of the bulkhead forward, up to Mark 2.
Spray 1 shot.
Pull back the wand 10 mm (0.394 in.) and spray 1 shot.
Repeat step k) until the wand comes out of the bulkhead center hole.
NOTE:
DO NOT spray wax at each 5 mm (0.197 in.) notch. Spray every 10 mm (0.394 in.) though the notches
are at both 10 mm (0.394 in.) and 5 mm (0.197 in.) intervals.
Once the wand comes out of the bulkhead center hole, place the wand as close to the center as possible and
keep spraying 1 shot at every 10 mm (0.394 in.) until Mark 5 appears.
35
5.
FROM THE BOTTOM SQUARE HOLE TO THE TOP
* The illustrations show RH side only. Perform the same procedure for LH side.
If the gun trigger is pulled when the pump is operating, wax cannot be applied properly.
In such a case, spray wax again at the same place.
Remove the masking tape applied to the application hole.
Set the guide on the wand according to the mark.
(The guide is supplied for LH and RH respectively.)
Insert the wand until it hits the frame inner top.
Spray 4 shots to apply wax.
NOTE:
Spray 4 shots at one spot.
Apply masking tape to the application hole
6.
REPEAT THE PROCEDURE ON THE OTHER SIDE

Peel the masking tape half way back on the application hole.
Insert the wand forward until the wand hits the bulkhead and spray 1 shot
37
Pull back the wand 1 notch and spray 1 shot.
NOTE:
Be cautious as the spraying interval will change because the notches are at both 5 mm (0.197 in.) and
10 mm (0.394 in.) intervals.
Repeat step c) until Mark 2 appears.
When spraying the last few shots, cover the application hole with your hand so that wax does not splash out.
