1 Press the variable trigger
to start spraying.
Note: The further the variable trigger is pressed, the more fluid
will flow through the air brush.
1 Fully tighten the paint

distance from the Workpiece:
Positioning the airbrush close to
the workpiece, will produce a small
dense pattern.
Positioning the airbrush far from the
workpiece, will produce a wide faint
pattern.
Angle to the Workpiece:
Angling the airbrush to the
workpiece will produce an
elongated pattern that will grown
wider.
The paint regulator dial is a stop that limits the amount of paint
being drawn from the paint pot and can therefore limit the
amount of paint being sprayed.
When using the connection hood, the air can be regulated to
the desired air pressure using the regulator dial on the top of the
connection hood. The correct air pressure will produce an even
spray pattern with little to no splatter.
Airbrushing has a range of techniques to obtain different effects.
Below are some basic effects that can be obtained through the
motion of the airbrush and distance from the work piece.
2 Release the variable
trigger to stop spraying.
