How long after...

[stuart23]

I panic after a few minutes but I have heard on here of the gun being put down for up to 20 minutes.

I did have a blockage in my early days after maybe 5 minutes.

I left it for around 15 min but I kept pumping some gear into a bucket every five min to keep it moving.

A bit of advice, don't clean tool,buckets hands etc in the barrel that feeds your machine, the dirt will block up the filters in the water system.

Depends what you're spraying. Iv left it ages before. Iv also blocked it up lol

How long would yous leave gear in the machine? Was Roughcasting yesterday and after spraying a panel it was hanging for ages and didn't want to move onto next panel as it was large until I had cast the first panel.

We leave our Ritmo M 110v for up to 40 mins easily. Left it longer and the amps shoot right up and the Ritmo shuts down. Swith on start up again and push the rest out till it new gear.

Then sprays sweet

The strata has a built in pump but Jim on here says he can't get his to work without using an external pump. Do you just plug the pump into the genny

I was running mine with a cheap hozelock garden pump plugged into the mains and ran the pump off the genny.

Don't use a butt just attach to tap, what pump do you use and how do you set it up?

use one of these from pft dealer(ian jones)
