Pneumatic Paint Can Shaker
WARNING! Make sure that the control valve is in the off position before connecting the
paint shaker to the air source.
1. Place the paint can within the Jaws (42) and securely tighten Handle (49).
2. Verify that the Control Valve (6) is in the Off position (handle is perpendicular
to air flow direction).
3. Turn on the air pressure at the air supply tank or compressor. Adjust the
pressure to 40 PSI as read on the compressor pressure gauge.
4. Adjust the air pressure up to a maximum of 70 PSI for optimum
tool performance.
5. Turn the Control Valve (6) to the On position. Shaking will begin.
Caution! If the paint can appears to be slipping out from the Jaws (42)
during shaking, immediately turn off the Control Valve (6). Reset the can and
retighten the Jaws.
6. Shake the paint can for two to four minutes, depending on its size.
7. After mixing the paint, turn the Control Valve (6) to the Off position, and wait
for the movement to stop.
8. Disconnect the air hose from the compressor.
9. Loosen Handle (49) and remove the paint can.
CHECK / ADJUST THE SHAKE ANGLE
Check / adjust the shake angle if the air pressure at the shaker is over 120 PSI
as follows:
With the air line at the maximum normal pressure:
1. Clamp up a full 1 gallon round can of paint.
2. Start the paint shaker.
3. Loosen the 3/8 in. lock nut at the adjustment screw on the air inlet fitting and
adjust the screw to obtain a total shaking angle of motion of about 30°.
4. Stop the shaker and tighten the lock nut while holding the adjustment
in place.
