Before use / Bringing into use
Proceed as follows for a sprayed material
that the manufacturer says must be thinned:
Take a measuring cup
16
with millilitre graduations.
Pour the required amount of sprayed material
into the paint cup
6
.
Thin the sprayed material by 10 % with the
thinner in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Thoroughly stir the sprayed material again.
Before you start spraying, always carry out a
trial spray on the test surface (see “Spraying”).
Q
Placing sprayed material
into the paint cup
Unscrew the paint cup
6
from the spray gun.
When spraying objects generally below the
gun, position the suction tube towards the front
of the gun, i.e. nearer the nozzle
8
. For over-
head work, position the suction tube towards
the back of the gun, i.e. nearer the handle
5
.
Pour the sprayed material into the paint cup
6
and screw the paint cup
6
tightly on to the
spray gun.
Q
Bringing into use
You can also sling the motor
11
over your shoul-
der. Always hook the carabiners attached to the
carrying strap
14
to the attachment eyes
14 a
.
If necessary, adjust the length of the carrying
strap to suit your requirements.
Ensure that the motor
11
cannot suck in any of
the sprayed material during operation. Position
it at an adequate distance away, on a clean,
dust-free surface.
Q
Switching on

Q
Advice on use
Spray as shown in Fig. D.
Do not switch the device on or off while it is
over the surface to be sprayed. Instead, start
and stop the spraying process approximately
10 cm outside the surface to be sprayed.
First spray the corners using short bursts of spray.
Then continue with spraying process in
accordance with Fig. D
– keep the spray gun parallel to the surface
– keep the spray gun upright laterally (don’t
wobble from side to side)
– move the spray gun at a constant speed
– apply the sprayed medium as thinly as possible
– the layer(s) of sprayed medium need(s) to be
allowed to dry for some time before you ap-
ply the next coat at right angles to the paths
of the previous coat (Fig. C). The coated sur-
face will have an even appearance if the
strips of sprayed material overlap by 4–5 cm.
Do not allow the paint cup
6
to empty com-
pletely while spraying – drops may form!
Q
Selecting / replacing the nozzle
Loosen the union nut
9
.
Insert the desired nozzle
8
.
Tighten the union nut
9
again.
Q
Adjusting the spray pattern
Turn the spray control thumbwheel
3
into the
desired position:
(–) = minimum spray rate
(+) = maximum spray rate
Note:
We recommend that you start with the
minimum spray rate.
