OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
(External Mix Air Nozzle Application)
1. Connect hose as shown in above diagram.
2. Fill cup with strained fluid mixed in accordance with
manufacturer’s recommendations on label of contain-
er. Fasten cover securely.
3. Close air adjusting valve by turning clockwise. Set air
pressure at oil and water extractor (transformer) to
between 35 and 80 PSI, depending upon atomization
desired.
4. Set regulator on pressure cup to approximately 10 PSI
for enamels; 5 PSI for lacquers. (Turn knob clockwise
to increase pressure, counterclockwise to reduce
pressure.)
5. Open air adjusting valve.
6. With trigger fully pulled back, make several fast spray
strokes against a flat surface. After adjustment of pres-
sure, proper atomization will be indicated by an even
distribution of finely divided paint particles.
7. Always release air in cup by momentarily opening air
release valve on cover when attempting to reduce
pressure.
IMPORTANT:
The most efficient atomization air pressure is the lowest
air pressure that will properly atomize the paint. This will
minimize the overspray, deposit more paint on the surface
and eliminate paint waste.
If a faster coverage is necessary, first increase fluid pres-
sure and then adjust atomization air pressure. If a slower
coverage is more desirable, first reduce the fluid pressure
and then adjust atomization air pressure. Always attempt
to maintain the lowest pressures for maximum efficiency.
For ease of removing cup cover and to prevent leakage,
always thoroughly grease the threads on the cup.
CAUTION
If the cup (1) is accidentally tipped over or held at too great
an angle, fluid will load up the underside of cup cover (4) and
leak into regulator assembly (11). In the event this happens,
CLEAN IMMEDIATELY.
