THE RIGHT WAY! Repacking Your Airless Spraygun

What happens here

The needle assembly is further broken down by removing a pin using a hinge pin remover. The speaker demonstrates tapping the pin with a hinge pin remover to free it, allowing the needle assembly to separate into its components: the front part, the needle piece, and the rod. Finally, the gun's filter, if present, is unscrewed from the body. It is noted that this particular gun's filter was already missing.

Goal: Fully remove and separate the needle assembly and take out the gun filter.

Tools and materials

  • 1/4 inch Wrench — To unscrew the needle assembly components
  • 9/32 inch Wrench — To unscrew the needle assembly components
  • Airless Spray Gun — The main body of the gun, from which the needle and filter are removed
  • Hammer or Mallet — To assist with tapping the hinge pin remover
  • Hinge Pin Remover — To remove the pin holding the needle assembly

the next step I've got the front of the gun remove I've got the back of the gun removed now I got to take there's a pin that goes right through the needle assembly itself there's a ranch we've got a 9/32 and a quarter inch wrench I'm gonna put one on each side and just unscrew one holds it still the other side will use to unscrew it here when we get that off so usually I will take and put it in a vise for the sake of doing this video I'm doing it inside here if you set it in a vise it's a lot easier just to hold on to we've got now unscrew this and you're repacking kits going to come with three different pieces it's gonna come with that new front end it's going to come with a new needle piece and it's going to come up with a new rod that's going to go through the handle and that's gonna be what pulls the needle back which is what Chris just removed right there so now I've removed that and I'm gonna just take and strike the back of the needle assembly and see if I didn't just struck it with the hinge pin remover it just freed it a little bit enough for it to pop out and there's the needle assembly right there now we can remove the gun filter this just unscrews right here so now you've got the top of the gun and then we will remove the filter this one the filter wasn't in there so there's no filter on
