Installing Spray Tips
Two spray tips are available for use with this
sprayer. The black tip produces a 12-inch
wide spray pattern. The gray tip produces a
4-inch wide spray pattern.
Either spray tip may be used to spray mate-
rials that are recommended to be sprayed
with a 0.015 tip size. See material container
for spray tip size recommendations.
