The adjoining illustration (8) shows how to
operate the delivery control knob.
Turn clockwise to set a narrow jet and low
output.
Turn counterclockwise to set a full jet and
high output.
Important: Altering the jet also means
changing the distance to the sprayed
surface (fig. 9).
Broad Jet = about 23-35 cm (10-14 in)
distance
Narrow Jet = about 15-25 cm (6-10 in)
distance

When spraying, keep spray gun in horizontal position or
hold spray gun level with the nozzle pointing slightly
downwards or slightly upwards.
"Crosswise spraying" is the best way of covering a flat
surface, using a round jet nozzle. Its important to
start off outside the area to be covered and avoid
any break during spraying. Move the gun with a
steady motion. Slowing down or speeding up will
cause irregular spray pattern, spots, runs,
irregular finish, ripple effects, etc. Never move
the spray gun by flexing your wrist. Instead,
swing your whole
arm to maintain
uniform spacing
between spray
gun and surface.

!
Pilot Power Electric Spray guns should be used only for spraying
paints and solvents having a flame point of 21oC/70oF or above and
used without additional heating.
!
Never use in premises subject to regulations on explosive hazards
!
Wherever possible, spraying should be done in the open.
!
When spraying in enclosed premises, provide adequate ventilation.
Keep all open flames out of the spraying areas and do not smoke to
avoid explosive hazards.
!
As the spraying medium is expelled from the tip at high pressure,
never touch the nozzle while spraying. Do not direct the gun against
yourself or any other person.
!
Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying out any
work on the gun.
!
Paint strippers and alkalies may cause corrosion damage and must
not be sprayed from the gun.
