4. ASSEMBLY
Carefully remove everything from the packaging and compare it against the contents
list. If anything appears to be missing please contact the place of purchase.
ATTACHING AN AIR LINE COUPLING (Fig.1):
After purchasing the spray gun and before initial use an
air line coupling must be fitted that is compatible with
your compressor's trailing hose.
1. Select a suitable 1/4
” female thread air line coupling.
2. Wind a length of PTFE tape around the thread.
3. Screw the coupling on to the spray gun.
4. The connection must be firm for an airtight union.
CONNECTING THE PAINT POT (Fig.2):
After purchasing the spray gun and before initial use,
wash the spray gun through to clear the air and paint
channels of any debris or dust.
1. Turn the paint pot lid (A) anticlockwise to remove it.
2. Fill the paint pot with material.
3. Carefully refit the pot lid (A). Turn the lid
anticlockwise a little to seat it correctly on the
thread, before turning it clockwise to tighten.
4. Make sure the bleed screw (B) is screwed in to
prevent paint loss.
5. Screw the paint pot assembly into the top of the
spray gun connector (C). Turn the pot clockwise
until tight.
5. OPERATION & USE
Only when you are ready to begin spraying should you connect your air supply to the spray
gun.
WARNING!
Read and understand the safety instruction section of this document before attempting to operate
your spray gun.
Before each day's use this process should be followed to ensure your spray gun is set up for
the best possible performance. Time spent setting up the gun and spraying test patterns each
time is worthwhile exercise and will result in a quality finish when paired with a suitable air
supply and a practiced spraying technique.
SPRAY GUN SETUP - SPRAY PATTERN CONTROL
(Fig.3):
The spray pattern control (D) regulates the air flow out
through the air diffuser horns (E) which in turn changes
the shape of the spray pattern.
1.Open the spray pattern control (D) anticlockwise to
widen the pattern.
2. Closing the control (D) clockwise will make the spray
pattern narrower.
