 INTENDED USE

GUN HANDLING

The first requirement for a good resultant finish is the proper handling of the gun. The gun 

should be held perpendicular to the surface being covered, and moved parallel with it. The 

stroke should be released before the stroke is ended. This gives accurate control of the gun 

and material.

SIPHON SPRAYING

Set atomization pressure approximately 50 psi for lacquer and 60 psi for enamel, test spray. 

If the spray it too fine, reduce the air pressure or open fluid control screw. If the spray is too 

coarse, clode the fluid screw. Adjust the pattern width and repeat adjustment of spray if 

necessary.

PRESSURE SPRAYING 

After selecting correct size fluid orifice, set fluid pressure for desired flow. Opet atomization 

air and test spray. If spray is too fine, reduce air pressure. If spray is too coarse, raise air 

pressure. Adjust pattern width and repeat adjustment of spray. Keeping fluid control screw in 

open position will reduce fluid needle wear.

NOTE

To reduce overspray and obtain maximum efficiency, always spary with the lowest 

possible atomization air pressure.
