8.4 Adjusting the rate of flow (See Fig. 7)
The spraying capacity can be adjusted by using the flow
rate adjusting knob (4). Adjust the adjusting knob(4) until
the best spray pattern is reached. Turn the adjusting
knob clockwise (+) to increase the flow rate and turn it
anti-clockwise (-) to decrease the flow rate. A poor spray
pattern will concentrate the paint in the centre of the
spray and give a blotchy finish. A good spray pattern will
give even distribution of paint throughout the pattern.
8.5 Spraying techniques
To obtain the best results, keep your spray gun level and
parallel to the surface at all times. Keep the nozzle(7)
5-15cm from the surface and spray evenly from side to
side or up and down, using smooth and even strokes (See
Fig. 8-1).
NOTE:
•
Make sure that you have masked the areas that should
not be sprayed by a good quality masking tape.
•
The intended area to be sprayed should be pretreated
to be smooth and clean, free from dust.
•
Before operating, aim the spray gun at a piece of scrap
material and start spraying to find the best pattern and
flow rate.
Do not spray as shown in Fig. 8-2.
8.6 Using the spray shelter (See Fig. 9)
The supplied spray shelter helps to provide a protective
spraying working environment.
NOTE:
•
Wear chemical protection mask when working.
•
Close the door of spray shelter when spray working.
Open the door of spray shelter after spray working.
