Determining Viscosity
It is vital to determine the viscosity of the spray material to see if it is
suitable to be used in the spray gun.
Note:
You will need to have a timer or stopwatch to perform this step.
1. Stir the material to make sure it’s evenly mixed. If bubbles are formed
during stirring, wait until these have dissipated before proceeding to the
next step.
2. Submerge the viscosity
measuring cup into the material
and fill it to the brim.
2. Raise the cup out of the liquid by
the handle and start the timer.
3. Time how long it takes to empty
the cup in seconds.
Note:
The viscosity is measured
in DIN-seconds (DIN-s), so if it
takes 30 seconds for the liquid to
drain out of the measuring cup, the
material has a viscosity of 30DIN-s.
4. If the material is above 50DIN-s, the material will need to be thinned out
more and re-measured.
WARNING!
THE SPRAY GUN CANNOT BE USED
WITH MATERIALS CONTAINING ABRASIVE
SUBSTANCES, GLAZES, DISPERSION PAINTS,
CAUSTIC AND ALKALINE SUBSTANCES, OR
TEXTURED COATINGS.
Choosing The Spray Direction
To change spray patterns, the Spray
Direction Adjustor can be rotated
clockwise to the desired direction.
1. For surfaces that are taller than
they are wide (vertical surfaces),
use a horizontal fan spray. This
can be achieved by rotating the
Spray Direction Adjustor to the
position shown.
2. For surfaces that are wider than
they are tall (horizontal surfaces),
use a vertical fan spray. This can
be achieved by rotating the Spray
Direction Adjustor to the position
shown.
3. For corners, edges and other
hard to access areas, use a round
spray. This can be achieved by
rotating the Spray Direction
Adjustor to the position shown.
Adjusting The Spray Fan Width
1. For a narrow fan spray, push the
Spray Width Deflector anti-
clockwise.
2. For a wide fan spray, push the
Spray Width Deflector clockwise.
