4. Adjusting the pressure
a. Turn the Pressure Control Knob Clockwise to
increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease
pressure.
b. Always use the lowest pressure necessary to
completely atomize the material.
Note: Operating the sprayer at higher pressure
than needed, wastes material, causes early tip
wear, and shortens sprayer life.
c. If more coverage is needed, use a larger tip rather
than increasing the pressure.
d. Check the spray pattern. The tip size and angle
determines the pattern width and flow rate.
WARNING
When you spray into the paint bucket,
always use the lowest spray pressure
and maintain firm metal to metal contact
between gun and container.
To stop the unit in an emergency, turn the
motor off. Then relieve the fluid pressure
in the pump and hose as instructed in the
Pressure Relief Procedure.
WARNING
Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure".
To reduce the risk of injection, never
hold your hand, body, fingers or hand
in a rag in front of the spray tip when
cleaning or checking for a cleared tip.
Always point the gun toward the ground
or into a waste container when checking
to see if the tip is cleared or when using
a self-cleaning tip.
5. When Shutting off the Sprayer
a.
Whenever you stop spraying, even for a short break,
follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure".
b.
Clean the tip & gun as recommended on page 11 for
Airlessco 008 gun or separate gun instruction manual for
all others.
c.
Flush the sprayer at the end of each work day, if the
material you are spraying is water-based, or if it could
harden in the sprayer overnight. See "Flushing". Use a
compatible solvent to flush, then fill the pump and hoses
with an oil based solvent such as mineral spirits.
d.
For long term shutdown or storage, refer to the
"Flushing" section of this manual.
STARTING UP
WARNING
Be sure to relieve pressure in the pump after
filling with Airlessco Pump Conditioner.
Avoiding Tip Clogs
There is an easy way to keep the outside of the
tip clean from material build up:
Every time you stop spraying, for even a minute,
lock the gun and submerge it into a small bucket
of thinner suitable for the material sprayed.
Thinner will dissolve the buildup of paint on the
outside of tip, tip guard and gun much more
effectively if the paint doesn't have time to dry
out completely.
