Disassembly

1. Remove the solution cup assembly from the side of the airbrush.

*2. Two methods can be used for this step:

• Method 1 (NOT Recommended): Remove the airbrush handle, tail cap and fluid knob in one piece. This method is at high risk to the nozzle, as many people using this method will also reassemble with these 3 parts still together. Failing to align the back of the needle to the fluid knob correctly, many try to force it into alignment, accidentally pushing the needle through the nozzle. The nozzle, being a fragile piece, can easily crack or split and will have to be replaced.
• Method 2 (RECOMMENDED): Remove the fluid adjusting knob by screwing the back of the airbrush counter-clockwise. Remove the handle, named the tail cap in the parts diagram.

3. Remove the needle cap from the front of the airbrush. Note that the needle barely protrudes through the nozzle cap, as this will need to be replaced in the same manner later.

4. Remove the nozzle cap from the front of the airbrush. Note that the needle barely protrudes through the nozzle.

5. Remove the needle chucking nut that holds the needle in place.

6. Remove the spring case by screwing it off counter-clockwise.

7. Remove the spring.

8. Remove the needle.

9. Remove the needle chucking guide

10. Using the small wrench that came with the airbrush, gently untighten the nozzle on the front of the airbrush.

Do not disassemble your airbrush any further unless you are an experienced technician. At this point, it should be sufficiently apart to perform a thorough cleaning using a brush or other cleaner to clean the inner surfaces of the airbrush body. It might also be beneficial to wipe down the needle and soak the needle and nozzle in a cleansing solution if necessary.

*New models of the TurboSpeed Airbrush have the fluid flow knob built into the handle, changing Method 2 from what is described in the video. If disassembling one of these newer models, follow the directions for Method 1 of Step 2.

Reassembly

1. Using the supplied wrench, reattach the nozzle to the front of the gun so it is snugly fit. Take care not to overtighten it, as the nozzle is delicate and can easily strip or shear.

2. Reinsert the needle chucking guide, making sure the groove faces down.

3. Reinsert the spring.

4. Screw in the spring case clockwise.

5. Insert the needle gently and use a rotating motion if you meet resistance. Do not force the needle as the nozzle is easily damaged. The needle is in place when it slightly protrudes through the nozzle.

6. Attach the nozzle cap to the front of the airbrush. This is in place when the needle protrudes slightly through the needle cap.

7. Gently screw on the needle chucking nut using a clockwise motion until it is tightly snug.

8. Attach the needle cap to the front of the airbrush.

9. Attach the airbrush handle, called the tail cap in the parts diagram.

**10. Attach the fluid flow knob until the threads are no longer visible. From this point, pull back the trigger and turn the knob 4 more complete turns until the knob makes contact with the trigger. The airbrush is now reassembled and ready for use.

**New models for the TurboSpeed Airbrush have the fluid flow knob built directly into the handle. If reassembling one of the newer models, there is no need to follow Step 10.
