Proper Operation of the S pray Gun
Cone and Stream spray pattern instructions
1.
Pull the choke back. Squeeze the trigger to begin spraying.
2.
The spray pattern is determined by how far the trigger is pulled back. The
spray begins at a wide cone and progressively becomes a straight stream
when the trigger is pulled all the way back.
3.
Once the desired spray pattern is achieved, press the trigger lock to hold the
position of the trigger. To release the trigger lock, pull the trigger back until
the lock disengages.
4.
When the gun is not in use, activate the safety lock by releasing the trigger
and pressing the safety lock pin. This will lock the trigger in the off position
to prevent accidental spraying.
Fog and Stream spray pattern instructions
1.
Push the choke all the way forward.
2.
Squeeze the trigger to begin spraying. Set the trigger to a wide cone spray
pattern. This will achieve the best atomized mist.
3.
Pull the trigger all the way back to change to a straight stream.
Note :
Operating pressure of the pump will vary depending on the orifice size
used. 110 psi is achieved with the small orifice. The medium and large orifices
achieve 50 and 2 psi, respectively. (Additional orifices are located under the
yellow plug on the top of the gun.)
IMPO RTANT:
ALWAYS hold the spray gun with a firm grip when spraying
at higher pressures in order to prevent gun from whipping. Keep good footing
and balance at all times.
Note: It is not unusual for the operator to be exposed to chem ical drips while
adjusting the spray pattern – gloves should be chem ical resistant.
