HVLP spray gun
Mount the gun container and fully tighten.
To connect the hose to the gun grip (E).
To select the type of spray required , loosen the adjustment ring (F - 1), adjust the position, orienting the
nozzle (F - 2) to obtain (G):
HH: Horizontal spray
VV: Vertical spray
CC: Round spray
The gasket (G - 1) includes 4 orientation notches that help position the butterfly nozzle (G - 2). The position
is fixed by a tab that protrudes from the bottom.
After selecting the type of spray, tighten the adjustment ring (G - 3). The horizontal or vertical sprays (HH -
VV) are recommended for large surfaces. The round spray (CC) is used instead for small objects or for
areas that are difficult to reach (corners, angles, etc.).
6. USING THE DEVICE
The atomiser supplies the compressed air needed to operate the machine.
Air flows from the butterfly nozzle and paint is sprayed only when the trigger is pulled.
a. Start-up
Turn the switch ON/OFF to start the machine.
b. Paint gun operation and use
The spray can be adjusted very easily as follows:
- Completely close the adjustment screw (H - 1) turn to the right.
- Keep pulling the trigger (H - 2) and slowly open the paint screw (H - 1) until the correct amount of paint is
obtained.
- The spray gun should be moved with a regular motion and always kept at the same distance (from 10 to
30 cm) depending on the adjustment and type of paint used), and above all must always be parallel to the
surface of the object being treated (I - 1).
Warning!
Never use a circular movement: this might damage the quality of the finish (I - 2). Release the trigger at the
end of each forward movement and pull it again when the return movement has started.
This will avoid any joining marks caused by a second coat, especially for large surfaces (L).
The movement must be horizontal if the spray is vertical or vertical if the spray is horizontal.
