Adjusting The Spray Pressure
The spray pressure setting required will vary depending on many
factors such as the viscosity of the material, the temperature, the
wear on the spray tip, size of the nozzle, distance to the work surface,
length of the hose, etc. It will therefore need to be adjusted until an
even spray pattern is achieved before starting to paint.
1. Set the pressure control dial to
approximately medium pressure.
2. Test this pressure setting on a
scrap piece of material.
Too little pressure will result
in streaks with more paint
appearing in the spray
pattern.
Too much pressure will result
in overspray, material wastage
and premature wear on the
airless sprayer parts.
Note: As best practice, it is recommended to start at a lower pressure
and then adjust it up until the streaks start to disappear and an even
spray output is achieved.
3. Continue adjusting the pressure
setting and testing it until a smooth
even consistency is achieved.
Note: Take note of how far the sprayer is
held from the test surface whilst testing,
as this will affect obtaining an even
spray output. You will want to maintain
this distance when spraying the work surface.
Note: If the streaks are still present even at maximum pressure, a
narrower spray tip may be required.
Adjusting Spray Speed
The selected spray pressure will
affect the speed at which you’ll
need to move the spray gun. Lower
pressures will require slower speeds
and higher pressures, faster speeds.
1. On a scrap piece of material,
practice applying steady strokes
at the speed required to achieve an even spray pattern.
Pressure Release Procedure
WARNING! PERFORM THE FOLLOWING
PROCEDURE FOR PRESSURE RELEASE WHEN
SHUTTING DOWN THE AIRLESS SPRAYER FOR ANY
PURPOSE, INCLUDING CLEANING OR ADJUSTING.
1. With the machine switched on, rotate the
priming lever into the prime position.
2. Switch off the spray system.
3. Aim the spray gun into the paint bucket
and squeeze the trigger to release any
remaining pressure in the gun. Keep
holding the trigger until the spray material
comes out.
4. Lock the spray gun trigger.
Changing The Spray Direction
1. Perform the Pressure Release Procedure described above.
WARNING! ENSURE THE TOOL IS SWITCHED OFF
& THE CORD IS UNPLUGGED WHEN PERFORMING
THE OPERATION BELOW.
2. Rotate the tip guard to match the
direction of preferred spray pattern.
3. Flip the priming lever back into the spray
position and switch the unit on. The
sprayer is now ready for use again.
