When air is hooked up it blows the air regulator and all the air blows out valve very little gets to gun.red safety light comes on on front of machine and it will not work

it is rather large (usually 0.6mm nozzle) airbrushing gun,

symptom indicate that needle is closing the nozzle and not retracting, gun need cleaning! or adjustment - seem like both...

remove paint from the feeder, remove feeder bottle from the gun body, clean it well with paint stripper and then solvent/water allow it to dry
remove front casing from the gun and check for any physical debris around the needle or in the chamber, carefully clean without damaging the needle. needle is stainless should be nearly mirror finish.wash with solvent and use toothbrush - DO NOT USE METAL BRUSH!

put it back together and check if it works correctly, if you have any flow from the front - fill about 1/3 of the tank with paint stripper and then spray it to the sink or whatever other safe place. do not forget to wear safety mask, goggles and gloves! paint stripper will eat through your skin! if you splash yourself, have few spoon of vinegar mixed with 2pints (1 liter) of water and this solution will deactivate paint stripper! SAFETY FIRST!

if gun still do not work - you need to strip needle assembly and clean it correctly, put your gun on the table on butcher paper, remove screw holding needle on the back (watch for the spring!) put whole assembly on the paper in the order in which you removed it,
clean needle and needle seat, lightly grease it with vaseline and in reverse order put it back together.

regulations:
very bottom screw - this close to the airhose, it regulates volume of the air to the gun, you very rarely need to adjust that one, you increase volume with haevy paint and decrease it with light paints
needle screw - it regulates volume of the paint itself, closing it clockwise will decrease amount of paint, anticlockwise will increase volume of paint
top screw - it regulates the spray pattern, totally closed - round pattern as there will be no flow to side vents, more open, more flat the spray pattern,

i would suggest fill the bottle with water and put some butchers paper on the wall and experiment what is what and what pattern is most suitable for your use.

hope this little info will help you solve your problem, it is good you give the model, it will be better if you provide as well what medium you use, was it acrylic, oil, water based? all of them behave little bit differently in airgun...

please do not hesitate to leave your opinion and points... thanx!

Sometimes the air regulator will limit the air volume and pressure when drawing a large quantity of air out of the tank. The regulator was most likely designed for nailing which has very little demand. For filling auto tires you may have to bypass the regulator. If your compressor has a safety valve, with 1/4 male pipe threads, remove the safety valve and install a nipple and tee fitting (let out all the air from the tank before removing the safety valve by pulling on the ring). Reinstall safety valve on one port and a quick connect on the other. Now you will have access to full tank pressure without the restriction of the regulator when needed. Good luck

check your oil filter, blow air through the lines to the rad. make sure the motor isnt running lean too. (red hot exhaust)

May just be bad pressure regulator. Easy test. Let out all the air from the compressor. Find and remove the safety valve. Install a tee fitting where safety was installed and reinstall safety and a quick fitting at the other port. Now let compressor fill and shut off. Connect gun to temporary quick fitting for test. Replace the regulator as needed (you can install a generic pressure regulator at the temp. fitting for fast repair). You do not have to uninstall the test fitting.

May need a new firing valve or safety foot is sticking. Easy to check, Remove air supply, nails and remove the trigger to expose the firing pin. Connect air and place the nose of the gun against thick rubber or coiled air hose. Depress trigger and let go. Gun should fire and trigger pin will return to original position. If piston still does not retract then problem is with trigger valve and most likely the rest of the orings within the gun will need replacing. Not expensive. Remove the air supply and look closely at the firing pin, if it moves quite a bit from side to side and looks worn time to replace. If it look to be in good condition, then orings within trigger valve may be swollen and will not allow the trigger to function. You can remove the valve by removing the 3mm roll pins above the valve and applying air pressure to pop out the valve. Use heavy glove to catch the valve because it could come out with force (reduce air pressure to gun if possible). If gun works ok examine safety foot mech for problem. Use silicone paste lube on orings. good luck

There are usually two gages, one for the pressure in the tank, the other is for the regulated pressure in the hose going to whatever tool you have connected. I assume the tank filled up and the tank gage registers pressure in the tank. When you said you "opened the gage" I am guessing that you turned the knob counter-clockwise which would be the normal direction to open a valve. However, this is not a valve, it is a spring loaded regulator device. When you turn the knob counterclockwise you are removing all pressure from the spring which sets the regulator to allow zero pressure in the hose. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure in the hose. I hope this was helpful. Good luck.

There is actually very little in the gun in the way of parts. The outer front nozzle unscrews, then the inner nozzle (you need a thin open-end wrench). The fluid and air controls unscrew from the back with loose springs. The fluid needle pushes out the back and the air valve unscrews from the front side of the handle (you may need to remove the trigger to get the valve out). The only critical area is outer and inner passages of the two front components. Soak the entire gun and parts in gun cleaner for an hour or two, then blow everything clean with compressed air. Lightly lube the trigger bearing, fluid needle (not the thin part), and air valve assembly. Put a little light grease on the threads of the two controls and their springs. Don't oil anything around the nozzle. Hopefully, you found a wad of paint in the gun body after soaking it. After reassembly, check the air flow first which should not pulsate. If it does, check the air line with a blow gun--does it pulsate? Check the regulator, hose, and air filter if it does. If the air delivery is good but the gun still pulsates while painting, check the paint supply system. Hope this saves the gun--I've had a Binks gun for many years and it was well used before I got it.

You either have a piston stop bumper failure or some damaged orings. Look on the schematic and the piston stop bumper is number 11, part #107236. A lot of times the piston stop bumper will disintergrate due to becoming brittle from the compressed air and not having enough lubrication. Look for small plastic balls in the head under the valve. If you see little plastic pieces than that is what remains of the piston stop bumper. You will need to remove the valve from the head cap in order to inspect the bumper. Also inspect all orings. The slightest damage can have big effects. One other thing to look for is damage to the plastic valve that rides on 3 orings. (2 out and 1 in) I don't believe you have valve damage because you say it is firing like a machine gun. This is almost always the piston stop bumper.

Hi there .
First check if the nail gun have a adjustment screw . Depending on the brand could be in the front where the nails comes out or by the trigger. Second check the compressor by the air hose connection you should have a regulator valve with a gauge and see if you getting the right air pressure .
Hope this help

change the ignitor. it's not getting hot enough to open the safety valve.
