Repair 7-11 1999 Nordson CorporationAll rights reserved 107 962HIssued 11/99Manual 21-19b. Warm a syringe (2) of dielectric grease to about 37−43 C(98−110 F) by holding it in your hands or running the syringeunder warm water.c. Insert the flexible tube (3) of the syringe into the electrostaticcable port on the cable adapter.NOTE: The end of the cable acts as a piston in the insulating tube (4),pushing the dielectric grease (1) around the resistor and spring (5), andaround the exterior of the tube. This totally covers the high-voltagecontact points inside the gun with dielectric grease.d. Apply about 1.5 cc of warmed grease into the electrostatic cableport.e. Install the insulating tube (4), resistor-end first (6), into the gunextension.9. See Figure 7-3. Install the air valve needle (2) and the trigger stopneedle (7).10. See Figure 7-2.
