TO OPERATE
1) Attach hose to air supply (CO
2
tank, compres-
sor or aerosol propellant can) then holding air
hose in hand, attach airbrush to air hose by
gently turning in clockwise motion on to fit-
ting. Tighten air hose snugly into place with
wrench provided in set.
2) When air is regulated, pressure should be
between 15 to 50 p.s.i. Normal operating
pressure is 30 p.s.i. We recommend a pres-
sure gauge (No. 50-054) and/or water trap
(No. 50-051) in conjunction with compressor
where humidity is a problem. A compressor
or CO
2
tank is more practical for larger jobs
and prolonged spraying.
3) To attach jar or color cup, insert stem from jar
into hold located in bottom of airbrush near
head. Insert the stem into the airbrush and give
a 1/4 counter clockwise turn. This will lock your
jar (bottle) or color cup assembly in place. To
remove, pull down and rotate jar (or cup)
assembly counterclockwise again.
