TARGET NOZZLE

 

The Target nozzle is a precision instrument designed to give many years of trouble free service.  Some times small particles can get lodged in the nozzle head obstructing the flow of fluid.  These obstructions can easily be removed by following these instructions

# 1       Nozzle Head

# 2       Teflon Washer

# 3       One-Way Brass Washer

# 4       Threaded Collar

# 5       C-Clip

# 6       Bent Extension

# 7       Attachment Nut

 

DISASSEMBLY

1.       Rotate nozzle head assembly all the way forward until it stops (do not force it).  Back it off one complete turn.

2.       Holding the “threaded collar” (#4) stationary with a wrench, un-screw the “nozzle head” (#1) taking care not to lose the two washers (items #2 & #3)

3.       If it is necessary to remove the “threaded collar” from the “bent extension” (#6), the “C-clip” (#5) must be removed from groove “A”.  Push it out with a small screw driver

CLEANING

1.       To remove a nozzle obstruction, tap the nozzle head base down, on a hard surface.

2.       If still blocked, use a strand of copper wire from an electrical power lead. 

NEVER USE A PIN OR NEEDLE, THIS WILL DAMAGE THE NOZZLE

 

RE-ASSEMBLY

1.       Slip the “nozzle attachment nut” (#7) over the “bent extension”.  Screw  the “threaded collar” past the groove and install the “C-clip”.

2.       Screw the “threaded collar” forward until it stops and then turn it back one turn.  Slip the “one way brass washer” (#3) over the end of the bent extension.  The smaller shoulder on the washer must be pointing forward .

3.       Slip the white “Teflon washer” (#2) over the end of the “bent extension” (the washer may be inside the nozzle head, it can be left there) .  Screw on the “nozzle head”, tightening it so that the nozzle assembly has some resistance when turned.  If the nozzle leaks, tighten the head against the collar ( This will compress the Teflon washer and seal the nozzle)
