Operation
Preparing for Operation
f
Spraying on the sides of water bodies
(lakes, rivers, etc.) or neighbouring surfac-
es in the direct catchment area is not per-
mitted.
When purchasing paint, varnish and spray mate-
rial, pay attention to their environmental com-
patibility.
Preparing the Spray Surface
Note:
Cover off the vicinity of the spray surface
thoroughly and generously.
The spray mist contaminates the environment.
When spraying in enclosures, surfaces not cov-
ered can become contaminated.
The spray surface must be clean, dry and
grease-free.
–
Roughen smooth surfaces and then remove
the sanding dust.
Diluting Spray Material
f
When diluting, pay attention that the spray
material and the diluting agent correspond.
When using a faulty diluting agent, lumps can
develop that can lead to clogging of the spray
gun.
For spray material that needs to be diluted, pro-
ceed as follows:
–
Take the measuring cup
21
.
–
Stir the spray material thoroughly.
–
Fill a sufficient quantity of spray material into
the spray-material container
8
. (see “Filling
in Spray Material”, page 21)
–
Dilute the spray material by 10 % with paint
thinner. Examples:
–
Stir the spray material thoroughly.
–
Carry out a test-spray run on a test surface.
(see “Spraying”, page 22)
When the spraying pattern is perfect, start the
spray job.
or
When the spraying result is not satisfactory or
when no paint comes out, please continue as
described under “Correction of Malfunctions”
on page 24.
Filling in Spray Material (see figures C1
–
C2)
f
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
–
Unscrew the container
8
from the spray gun.
–
Turn the suction tube
10
so that the spray
material can be sprayed with almost no resi-
due:
–
Fill the spray material into the container and
screw the container firmly to the spray gun.
