Material will not flow from hopper • Material too thick
• Not enough air
• Gun adjustment set too low
• Nozzle too small
• Gun is plugged
• Not enough material in hopper
• Thin material
• Open gun air valve more
• Increase trigger travel
• Increase nozzle size
• Clean gun
• Add material
Pattern too fine. • Material too thin
• Air pressure too high
• Gun needle travels too low
• Nozzle too small
• Thicken
• Close gun air valve partially
• Increase
• Replace nozzle with larger size
Pattern too course. • Material too thick
