XP 110 Repair

Postby acericardo on Thu Jul 01, 2010 3:00 pm

I am currently trying to repair my friend's twin XP110 them after we unearthed it at his house, and I have managed to separate all the casing up to the nozzle, which I am finding impossible to remove. Can it simply be pulled off as I presume, or is extra sawing/cutting required?

Thanks,

I'm not sure how the nozzle on the 110 is, but it's probably simular to removing the pump cap. Try pulling it off. If that doesn't work it's probably glued. Try cutting the glue with a razor or something or try doing the stuff you would normally do to the pump cap. As a last resort, try breaking the nozzle off. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you really need that orange nozzle cover thing.

In rare instances you may even be able to unthread the nozzle off by rotating it counter-clockwise. Otherwise, get flathead screwdrivers to pry it off. Prying off is the universal solution. You can also use a flathead screwdriver and a hammer to cut the piece in half along where the casing would split, but this is rarely, if ever a really good idea at the end. (On some guns doing this can make the nozzle/pump cap very difficult to keep on when closing the gun.)

Two flathead screwdrivers (that are relatively sharp) should do the job. Quite some force is sometimes needed to rip the caps off so be prepared for some plastic to fly.
