REPLACING THE TIP:
CLEANING THE AIRBRUSH:
1. Paint passes from the bottle connection forward so the trigger area back will most likely not need cleaning.
2. You can back flush the paint into your bottle by covering the aircap with your finger and then pressing down on the
trigger and pulling slightly back. This forces paint from back into the bottle. Never use open cup for back flushing.
3. In between color changes or before storing attach bottle with cleaner and spray into sink until it runs clear.
4. Remove needle and wipe clean then replace.
5. If paint has dried you can remove the tip and aircap for soaking or soak just the front of the airbrush in cleaner.
6. Use cleaner for the material you are spraying. Keep trigger area dry if soaking.
PERSONAL SETTINGS:
Spring Housing- #TAL-17 Used to increase or decrease spring tension for the trigger pull back. Thread into the shell
until the trigger stroke feels comfortable. Threading in until it stops can cause the trigger to jam.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
Bubbling in cup:
1. Aircap- #TA needs to be tightened
2. Tip- #TT needs to be tightened further
Skipping or Spitting:
1. Paint too thick -reduce with thinner
2. Tip not seated -tighten Tip- #TT with wrench
3. Tip split or damaged needle -replace tip or needle
4. Needle or tip dirty -clean and replace
5. Air pressure too low -increase pressure or thin paint further (need 20 or more PSI to spray most paints)
Airbrush Not Spraying:
1. Clogged tip -remove tip and clean
2. Needle not moving -tighten needle locknut
3. Low air pressure -increase pressure (need 20 or more PSI to spray most paint)
Sprays double line or heavy to one side:
1. Split tip or bent needle - replace
2. Dirty tip or needle - remove and clean
Jammed trigger or poor trigger motion:
1. Adjust Spring Housing - screw or unscrew the housing to lessen or increase tension on trigger motion
2. Paint leaking to trigger area - remove guts of airbrush and slightly tighten packing or replace if needed
3. Lubricate needle and trigger - apply Paasche Airbrush Lube (AL-2) to needle shaft and trigger slot area
