Spray Equipment Operating Instructions
The pressure pot is equipped with a valve to adjust the ratio of product to air. This valve will have to be adjusted in order to achieve to optimal spray pattern for each material. The valve is described as the Stop Screw in the diagram.
Before filling the gun with Nox-Rust(R) material, turn the stop screw clockwise until all the way closed. Use a marker pen or paint and make a mark at the 12:00 position. This line will be used to determine the number of turns needed for optimal spray of the waxes.
Settings for Nox-Rust(R) 7703B Corrosion Preventive Wax
When using the 360 flexible wand or 90 hook wand, turn the stop screw counterclockwise 1 turn from closed, and adjust the air pressure to 60 psi.
Settings for Nox~Rust(R) X-210 Corrosion Preventive Penetrant
When using the 360° flexible wand, turn the stop screw counterclockwise 1 turn from closed, and adjust the air supply pressure to 60 psi.
Gun Disassembly And Clean out
1) Turn the stop screw clockwise until all the way closed. Blow the cavity wax spray tube clear with air.
2) Disconnect the gun from the air supply.
3) Remove the wax spray tube using the quick disconnect.
4) Relieve the pressure from the gun by slowly turning the pot counterclockwise until all of the air escapes. Do not use the gun trigger to relieve pressure from the pot. This will cause the wax to flow into the air line supply of the gun.
5) If the gun is to be stored for more than 4 weeks, clean the gun with mineral spirits.
Insert a paper clip into the hanger bracket water drain hole and remove any rust particles and/ or mud if clogged
Insert a flexible magnet through the upper hoe of the hanger bracket to remove any rust particles.
Perform the same procedure on the opposite side.
Wrap rags around stabilizer link exhaust pipe front control bushings ball joint steering gear box boot and axle shaft boots Do the same on the opposite side.
Position a suitable container under the control arm to catch any oil and wax during the application.
Spray Gun Preparation
Spray gun nozzle adjustment:
Close the spray gun stop screw to the fully closed position Use a marker pen or paint and make a mark at the 12:00 position Turn the stop screw counter clockwise one full turn
Install the quick disconnect 360° flexible wand.
Amount of chemicals that will be used per vehicle
Nox-Rust(R) X210 (anti-rust oil) 80cc per side 160cc per vehicle
Nox-Rust(R) 7703-B (anti-rust wax) 46cc per side, 92cc per vehicle
Add i60cc of Nox-Rust X2T0 (Oil) to the spray gun pot.
Attach air line to spray gun and adjust air pressure regulator to 60 PSI
Test spray gun for proper operation. A rag and container should be used.
Nox-Rust(R) X210 (anti-rust oil) application
The inside of the hanger bracket will be sprayed in 3 directions For the first step oil will be used with the 360° flexible wand
Spray Pattern Overview
Spray Pattern "A"
A) Insert the spray nozzle through the upper hole of the hanger bracket (insertion length: 75mm) until it contacts the front surface of the hanger bracket wall
Pull the trigger of spray gun while holding the wand in position to confirm that oil leaks out of an opening in the hanger bracket Pull out wand with a constant gradual speed while spraying for at least 4 seconds
Spray Pattern "B"
B) Insert the spray nozzle with its tip facing down through the upper hole of hanger bracket (insertion length: 65mm) until it contacts the bottom surface of hanger bracket wall Pull the trigger of spray gun while holding the wand in position to confirm that oil leaks out of an opening in the hanger bracket Pull out wand with a constant gradual speed while spraying for at least 2 seconds
Spray Pattern "C"
C) Insert the spray nozzle with its tip facing up through the upper hole of hanger bracket (insertion length: 72mm) until it contacts the top surface of hanger bracket wall Pull the trigger of spray gun while holding the wand in position to confirm that oil leaks Out of an opening in the hanger bracket Pull Out wand with a constant gradual speed while spraying for at least 2 seconds.
Perform same procedure on opposite side of vehicle.
Nox-Rust(R) 7703-B (anti-rust wax) application inside of hanger bracket
The inside of the hanger bracket will be sprayed in 3 directions For this step wax will be sprayed using the 360° wand.
Note:
To release pressure from spray gun slowly turn pot counterclockwise Remove pot from spray gun and cap pot.
Using the other pot supplied add 92cc of Nox-Rust 7703-B to the spray gun pot.
Adjust air pressure regulator to 60 PSI

Pull Out wand with a constant gradual speed while spraying for 1 second.
Spray Pattern "C"
C) Insert the spray nozzle with its tip facing up through the upper hole of hanger bracket (insertion length. 72mm) until it contacts the top surface of hanger bracket wall. Pull the trigger of spray gun while holding the wand in position for 2 seconds, confirm that wax leaks out of an opening in the hanger bracket Pull out wand with a constant gradual speed while spraying for at least 1 second.
Perform same procedure on opposite side of vehicle.
Nox-Rust(R) 7703-B (anti-rust wax) application outer surface of hanger bracket
Remove the 360° flexible wand and install the 90° hook wand
Adjust air pressure regulator to 60 PSI.
Spray anti-rust wax to the surface of the hanger bracket only top, sides and bottom.
IMPORTANT:
Remove rust-proofing wax from drain hole of hanger bracket using a cotton swab. Perform continuously until it can be confirmed that the hole is not clogged.
Replacement of Front Lower Control Arms
Refer to parts information.
Replace per applicable Subaru Service Manual instructions.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Reuse the original rear bushing which is not contained in the parts kit.
Use 3 new self lock nuts below which are contained in the parts kit (They are not reusable)
- for rear bushing installation
- for attaching the front arm and cross member
- for attaching the stabilizer link and front arm
Note:
Refer to Front Transverse Link of Subaru Service Manual for removal and reinstallation of rear bushing.
Note:
Install rear bushing and front arm in the same angle as the original state before replacement.
Put a mark on rear bushin2, at which it is aligned with front arm flange. When rear bushing is reinstalled to a new front arm, align the rear bushing mark with the front arm flange.
