Focus 500

GB

SPRAYING TECHNIQUE

The Focus 500 has a trigger with 2 pressure points. 

The turbine is started via the first pressure point. If 

the trigger is pressed further, the material is trans-

ported.

Operate trigger on the spray gun.
Test spray a piece of cardboard to ensure correct setting of the 

spray pattern, spray jet width, material and air volume.
Hold the paint spray gun upright and maintain a constant 

distance of about 3 - 20 cm to the object being sprayed. (Fig. 

10)
Move the paint spray gun evenly either from side to side or up 

and down. If the gun is moved evenly, it will produce an even 

surface finish. 
Always start spraying away from the object and avoid stopping 

spraying whilst still on the object.
In case of excessive paint mist formation, adjust  the air and 

material flow respectively and alter the distance from the 

object.

a suitable cleaning agent during the processing 

period.

500 has to be cleaned thoroughly every day.

1. Divide the spray gun. Press catch (Fig. 2, A) down slightly.

Twist the spray attachment and turbine in a counter

movement to disconnect them from each other.

ATTENTION! Never hold the spray gun 

rear part under water or immerse it into 

liquids. Clean the housing only with a 

moistened cloth.

2. Unscrew the container.

Empty the remaining coating material into the original

container.

3. Pre-clean the container and feed tube using a

brush and suitable cleaning agent.

Clean the ventilating bore. (Fig. 9, 2)

4. Fill the container with a 

non-flammable

 solvent or

water. Screw the container back on.

Do not spray flammable materials for cleaning purposes.

When cleaning devices with flammable 

solvents, disconnect the device from the 

mains and clean thoroughly with a brush 

and cloth. Before starting the device up 

again, ensure that all traces of solvents 

are removed thoroughly. Allow the clea-

ned parts to dry completely.

5. Connect spray attachment and gun handle. (Fig. 2)

6. Pull the trigger to rinse the spray attachment.

Repeat the above procedure until the solvent or water

emerging from the nozzle is clear.

Unscrew feed tube with container seal. (Fig. 11)
