4.3.3 HANDLING
•
Proper handling of the spray gun will help you achieve the desired paint coating.
•
Hold the spray gun perpendicular and in an upright position with the spraying area and then move it left to
right parallel to the spraying area several times appropriate distance of 150
–
300mm between the gun and
spraying area
•
Note that the stroke should be started before the trigger is pulled and the trigger should be released before
the stroke is ended.
Note:
It is recommended to add a mini filter below the gun to trap moisture build up. Moisture may enter
the nozzle chamber and severely affect the paint coating finish.
Recommended to use Air Craft SG F01 mini filter and SG R01 inline regulator

To flush the material-conveying parts of the spray gun, depress the gun trigger until all material
traces are removed and the gun is thoroughly cleaned.
