Why is my NATI Paint Sprayer sputtering?
Sputtering during spraying can occur for several reasons. It might be due to a low paint level, so refill the paint. Ensure the cup is held upright. A clogged air vent can also cause sputtering, so clean the air vent hole. Check for a loose fluid inlet connection and tighten it. Also, inspect the fluid tip/seat; adjust or replace the fluid tip if it's loose or damaged.
What to do if my NATI Paint Sprayer will not spray?
If your paint sprayer isn't spraying, several factors could be at play. First, check the air hoses to ensure there's pressure at the spray gun. Make sure the fluid knob is sufficiently open. If the fluid is too thick, thin it out or increase the air pressure, but do not exceed the maximum pressure.
How to prevent overspray with NATI Speedway 50188 Paint Sprayer?
To prevent overspray, maintain a moderate and parallel movement during application. Adjust the distance from the workpiece. Also, reduce the air pressure to minimize paint drifting.
Why is air leaking from the nozzle of my NATI Speedway 50188 Paint Sprayer?
Air leakage from the nozzle can be caused by several issues. The air valve or seat may be dirty, so clean them. A sticking air valve can also cause leaks; lubricate the air valve/seat. Inspect the air valve spring for damage and replace if necessary. If the air valve/seat is worn or damaged, replace the air valve. A bent valve stem should also be replaced.
What to do if the fluid tip is leaking on my NATI Speedway 50188?
If the fluid tip is leaking, start by cleaning the tip. If the leakage continues, the fluid needle spring might be broken and needs replacement. Also, inspect the tip for wear or damage; replace the tip and/or needle if necessary.

The device described in the manual is an LVLP Paint Spray Gun, Model: 50188, manufactured by North American Tool Industries (NATI). It is designed for applying paint and other coatings, utilizing Low Volume Low Pressure (LVLP) technology, which typically results in less overspray and more efficient material transfer compared to conventional spray guns.
The primary function of the LVLP Paint Spray Gun is to atomize and apply liquid coatings, such as paint, onto various surfaces. It operates by connecting to a compressed air source, which drives the atomization process and propels the paint. The gun features several adjustable controls to fine-tune the spray pattern, fluid output, and air pressure, allowing for versatile application across different projects and paint types.
Key operational aspects include:
The manual provides the following technical specifications for the LVLP Paint Spray Gun:
These specifications highlight that the gun is designed for moderate air pressure and consumption, making it suitable for use with a range of air compressors. The 2.0mm nozzle size suggests it can handle a variety of paint viscosities, from thinner stains to thicker coatings, though proper thinning is emphasized. The 33 fl. oz. capacity is generous for many painting tasks, reducing the frequency of refills.
The LVLP Paint Spray Gun incorporates several features to enhance its usability and the quality of the finish:
Proper maintenance is crucial for the longevity and performance of the spray gun, and the manual outlines several key procedures:
The manual also includes important safety warnings, such as California Proposition 65 warnings regarding dust and chemicals, general safety instructions (keeping work area clean, avoiding explosive atmospheres, wearing PPE, proper tool handling), and specific safety instructions (using only rated accessories, proper air supply connection, two-hand operation, vibration precautions). It stresses the importance of qualified personnel for tool service and using only identical replacement parts.
