Operation
1. Begin spraying. Always keep the gun at right angles to the work .
2. Keep the nozzle about 6 to 12 inches from the work surface. Grip the gun keeping perpendicular
with spraying area then move it parallel for several times, Stopping gun movement in mid-stroke will
cause a buildup of paint and result in runs. Do not fan the gun from side to side while painting. This
will cause a build-up of paint in the center of the stroke and an insufficient coating at each end.
3. Trigger the gun properly. Start the gun moving at the beginning of the stroke
BEFORE SQUEEZING
THE
TRIGGER
and release the trigger
BEFORE STOPPING GUN MOVEMENT
at the end of the
stroke. This procedure will blend each stroke with the next without showing overlap or unevenness .
4. The amount of paint being applied can be varied by the speed of the stroke, distance from the surface
and adjustment of the fluid control knob.
5. Overlap strokes just enough to obtain an even coat.
NOTE:
Two thin coats of paint will yield better results and have less chance of runs than one heavy layer.
6. Use a piece of cardboard as a shield to catch overspray at the edges of the work to protect other
surfaces.
Maintenance
Incomplete cleaning can cause function failures and a degradation of the fan shape.
1.
Remove any remaining paint by pouring it into another container.
2.
Disassemble the spray gun making sure to remove the needle before disassembling the nozzle to
avoid damage to the housing of the nozzle closure.
3.
Clean all the paint passages and the nozzle. Clean the other components using a brush soaked in
solvent.
4.
Reassemble the spray gun and spray a small quantity of solvent to eliminate all the residues in the
paint passages.
WARNING:
NEVER USE METAL OR OTHER OBJECTS THAT COULD DAMAGE THE HOLES IN THE NOZZLE AND CAP.
NEVER IMMERSE THE SPRAY GUN COMPLETELY IN SOLVENT. NEVER USE COMPONENTS OR PARTS THAT ARE
NOT MANUFACTURER ORIGINALS.
Storing
When not using spray gun, turn the fluid adjustment knob counter-clockwise to open
which will reduce spring tension on needle fluid tip.
Spray gun
MUST BE
well cleaned and lightly lubricated.
