Clean spray gun immediately after use. Paint and other spray
materials dry quickly in the small passages of the gun rendering it
unusable due to the difficulty of removing hardened paint from the
passages inside the gun.
Local codes may not allow the spraying of paint thinner or solvents.
Use a gun washer to clean spray guns in accordance with local
codes. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper use of cleaning
equipment and materials. Dispose of used cleaning materials in
accordance with local, state and national regulations.
1) Empty paint cup; then rinse with appropriate solvent recommended by the spray material
manufacturer.
2) Refill paint cup with cleaning solvent and attach to gun. Spray solvent through the gun while
shaking the gun. Wipe the exterior of the gun with a solvent soaked rag. Repeat until the gun
is clean.
3) Remove the air cap and soak in solvent until clean. Use a small bristle brush for stubborn
stains. If it becomes necessary to clean the air cap holes, use a toothpick or small brush.
NEVER USE A METAL WIRE OR OTHER HARD INSTRUMENT TO CLEAN PRECISION DRILLED
AIR PASSAGES. DAMAGED AIR PASSAGES WILL CAUSE A DISTORTED SPRAY PATTERN.
4) Clean gaskets with solvent soaked rag. To prevent damage, do not immerse gaskets or spray
gun in solvents as this is detrimental to the lubricants and packings.
For best results, please follow these basic guidelines when
spraying:
1) Always keep the spray gun perpendicular to the surface being
painted.
2) Keep the nozzle about 6 to 12 inches from the work surface
throughout the stroke.
3) Always keep the gun in motion while spraying. Stopping the gun
motion in mid-stroke will cause a build up of paint which can
cause runs in the finish.
4) Do not “fan” the gun in an arcing motion as this creates an
uneven finish by producing a build up of paint in the middle
portion of the stroke and thinner coating at each end of the
stroke.
5) Trigger the gun properly – Start the gun moving at the beginning
of each stroke BEFORE SQUEEZING THE TRIGGER and release
the trigger BEFORE STOPPING GUN MOTION at the end of each stroke.
6) The amount of paint being applied to the surface varies due to the speed of the stroke,
distance from the work surface, the adjustment of the fluid control knob and the air pressure
being used. NOTE: To reduce overspray and maximize efficiency, always spray with the lowest
possible atomizing air pressure.
7) The material deposited should always be even and wet. Overlap each stroke just enough to
obtain a uniform finish.
8) Use appropriate masking materials (masking paper, tape, etc.) as needed to protect other
surfaces from overspray.
1) Adjust air pressure to the spray gun according to the recommendations supplied by the spray
material manufacturer. This air pressure is typically between 40 to 60 psi for conventional
spray guns. Adjust air pressure with the trigger pulled and the air control knob (if applicable)
fully open.
2) The width of the “fan spray” is controlled by the pattern control knob. Turn knob
counterclockwise to increase the width of the fan spray pattern. Turn knob clockwise to
decrease the spread of the fan spray pattern for a round pattern.
3) Open the fluid control knob by turning counterclockwise about three turns.
4) Start the tank pressure at 0 psi and turn the tank regulator slowly to increase fluid delivery
until the desired atomization (spray) pattern is achieved.
5) If the spray pattern in too coarse, reduce the tank pressure with the tank regulator to reduce
the amount of material. Trigger a short burst to relieve the tank pressure, and then increase
tank pressure slowly until a proper atomization pattern is achieved.
6) The fluid control knob can be used for fine adjustment of the atomization pattern.
Before spraying the work piece, practice on a cardboard or other suitable
test target to ensure that the spray pattern size and consistency are
correct.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DAILY CLEANING
CLEANING SPRAY GUNS WITH PAINT CUPS
Always wear safety goggles that comply with ANSI standard Z87.1
when cleaning spray guns.
Always wear a NIOSH approved mask or respirator and approved
protective clothing designed for use with the specific solvents you are
using.
Always exercise extreme care when using a solvent or thinner. Never
clean gun near fire, flame, electrical equipment or any source of heat
or sparks.
DO NOT soak entire spray gun in solvent or thinner for a long period
of time as this will destroy lubricants and possibly make motion
uneven. NEVER use lye or caustic alkaline solution for cleaning. Such
solutions will attack and degrade aluminum alloy parts of gun making
it unusable.
