Small Projects - from the Paint Pot

Spraying - from the Paint Pot

Tip: Before starting your project, practice spraying onto waste cardboard.

1.   Fill the Paint Pot (12) with your coating material – and check dilution. DO NOT FILL above the  start of the threaded neck.
2.   Push the Rigid Pick-Up Tube (11) firmly into the base of the spray gun body. Screw the Paint Pot (12) onto the spray gun body tightly. 
3.   Set Paint Flow Adjuster (8) to lowest setting.
4.   Uncoil the Air Hose (15) and attach it to the back of the spray gun and the other end to the SprayStation Gemini

®

. Uncoil the power cord and 

plug in to the electrical socket-outlet. 

5.   Turn the turbine on.
6.   Fine tune spray output with Paint Flow Adjuster (8) on gun. ¼ to ¾ setting produces the best spray.
7.   An airtight seal is essential for the correct operation of this spray gun. Before operating the unit please ensure that the Paint Container Gasket (9) is

>>  

in place and the Paint Pot (12) is securely fixed to the spray gun body.

Tip:

If you are spraying a ceiling angle the Rigid Pick-Up Tube (11) to the rear of the Paint Pot (12) or if you are spraying a floor surface angle to the

front. This will ensure you spray as much material as possible before you need to refill the Paint Pot (12).

As some paints, wood preservatives and other sprayable materials contain particles that have differing qualities, or you may be using an old paint, we
recommend you filter your material when filling the Paint Pot (12) of the spray gun or backpack through either a funnel with a filter on it or through
hosiery. This will ensure that no large particles enter the Paint Pot (12), so preventing blockages and providing you with trouble-free spraying.

ALWAyS MAKE SURE THAT THE PRODUCT IS ON A STABLE AND LEVEL SURFACE AND FREE FROM DUST AND DEBRIS OR LIQUIDS.
ALWAyS KEEP THE PRODUCT AS FAR AWAy FROM THE SPRAyING AREA AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT PAINT CONTAMINATING THE
MOTOR. MASK ANy AREA yOU DO NOT WISH TO SPRAy.
