CHANGING SIZE & SHAPE OF THE PATTERN
A)
Loosen the Collar #1. Turn the Aircap #2 to the horizontal posi-
tion. This setting produces a vertical spray pattern. Always make sure
the Collar is snug tight.
B)
Setting the Aircap in a vertical position produces a horizontal
spray pattern. To lock it in position, tighten the Collar #1 clockwise
until it stops turning.
C)
For smaller pattern sizes, the Aircap can be set at horizontal or
vertical. Turn the Pattern Control Knob #6 (at the rear of the Gun). This
knob adjusts the size of the fan pattern from large to small round and
anywhere in between. For regular spraying, the general setting is
about 6”-8” wide from 8” distance away. This is a personal preference.
If you turn the fan pattern down to a smaller round spray pattern you
will have to reduce the amount of fluid by turning the Fluid Knob #7. If
you do not do this, you will get runs. You can use this much smaller
pattern to spray spindles or the side of a board.
To set the fluid output, turn the Fluid Knob #7 clockwise until you
cannot pull the trigger. Then unscrew it a little until a small amount of
fluid comes out of the Nozzle when you depress the Trigger. Once you
set the fluid to your liking, you can leave it in this position. Always
remember that if there is not enough fluid (paint) you can turn the Fluid
Knob counter-clockwise for more output.
