♦
Connect the compressed air hose with the
quick-action coupling to the compressed-air
connection on the appliance. The connection
locks automatically.
♦
Set the working pressure on the filter pressure
reducer of the compressed air source to 3 bar.
Preparing the surface
♦
Carefully cover a large area around the spray
surface. Any surface that is not masked could
become contaminated.
♦
Ensure that the spray surface is clean, dry and
free of grease.
♦
Polished surfaces should be lightly sanded and
the sanding dust removed.
Switching the appliance on/off
Working methods:
♦
Fit the filter in the gun (see fig. C).
♦
Open the vent while working.
♦
When thinning, ensure that the spray material
and the thinners are suitable for each other.
Using an unsuitable thinner can lead to the
formation of lumps which, in turn, can block the
spray gun.
♦
Screw the flow cup clockwise onto the spray
gun.
♦
Fill the flow cup with spray material and
screw the lid on firmly.
♦
Hold the spray gun at a constant distance from
the object. The ideal spraying distance is ap-
prox. 15 cm.
♦
Work out the right settings by carrying out a test.
♦
Do not switch the appliance on/off over the
spray surface, rather start/end the spraying
process approx. 10 cm from the spray surface.
Switching on:
♦
To switch on, pull the trigger and keep it
pressed in.
Switching off:
♦
To stop working, simply release the trigger .
