Operation
Air Pressure Verification Kit for HVLP
Guns
NOTE:
When using Gun Part Nos. 241509 and
241511, with the 241563 Air Cap, the compliant air
pressure should be verified by using Air Pressure
Verification Kit 241644 (not to be used for actual
spraying). Refer to page 30.
Install the verification kit air cap on the gun. Turn on
the air to the gun, then trigger the gun to read the air
pressure on the gauge. To be HVLP compliant, the air
pressure must not exceed 10 psi (70 kPa, 0.7 bar).
Remove the verification kit air cap and install Air Cap
241563.
Apply the Fluid
Always hold the gun at a right angle from the surface.
Do not make an arc with the gun as it causes an
uneven coat of fluid. See Fig. 7.
1.
To achieve the best results when applying fluid,
keep the gun perpendicular to the surface and
maintain a consistent distance of approximately 8
to 12 inches (200 to 300 mm) from the object
being sprayed. See Fig. 7.
2.
To obtain an even finish, use smooth, even strokes
across the object being sprayed with 50% overlap.
3.
Paint using parallel strokes. This spray gun applies
all coatings evenly without cross coating.
