Any missing parts or damage should be reported

 distributor. Do not use a 

damaged tool. Read this instruction manual 
thoroughly for operation, maintenance and safety 
instructions.

Operation 

1.  Blow out air line to remove any dirt or 

moisture, then connect air supply hose to 
tool’s air inlet.  

IMPORTANT:

 Connecting a quick-change 

coupling directly to the tool is not 
recommended, as vibration may cause the 
connection to fail. Instead, add a leader hose 
and install any quick-change couplings 
farther down the line. 

2. 

Unscrew cup lid and add fluid to be sprayed. 
(Follow paint manufacturer’s instructions for 
proper mixing.) 

3. 

Set regulator to desired air pressure. (Refer 
to gun’s rated maximum pressure). 

4. 

Loosen air cap knurled ring and rotate air cap 
horns to effect horizontal or vertical spray. 
Retighten air cap.  

Horizontal horns (as shown in Figure 1) will 
produce vertical pattern for side-to-side 
motion. Vertical horns produce horizontal 
pattern used for top-to-bottom motion.  

5. 

Squeezing trigger part way opens air valve. 
Squeezing further retracts fluid needle, thus 
releasing fluid where it is atomized by the air 
flowing through air cap.  

6.  Rotate fluid control knob clockwise to 

decrease flow of material, counterclockwise 
to increase. 

7. 

Rotate fan control knob counterclockwise for 
full, flat spray pattern; clockwise for narrower 
pattern.  

NOTE: To reduce overspray and obtain maximum 
efficiency, always spray with the lowest possible 
air pressure/fluid flow combination. 

 

Figure 1 

Spray gun movement 

The gun should be held perpendicular to surface 
being covered, and moved parallel with it at a 
consistent pace. See Figure 2. The stroke should 
be started before the trigger is pulled, and the 
trigger released before the stroke is ended. 
Distance between gun and surface should be 6 to 
12 inches depending upon material and atomizing 
pressure. 

Deposited material should be even and wet. Lap 
each stroke over the preceding stroke from 1/3 to 
1/2, to obtain a uniform finish.
