OPERATION
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Step 1: Inlet Air Pressure Regulation
Assemble components of spray gun and connect to clean
air source as described above. Clean air source is impera-
tive to ensure peak performance. The use of an in-line air
lter is highly recommended to keep any contaminants
from entering the spray gun. Set inlet air pressure to
between 40 and 45 P.S.I. to begin adjustments.
(This is a good operating inlet pressure suitable for most applica-
tions, however, depending on materials being sprayed and other
external factors such as temperature, humidity, etc., you may
need to come back to this step and increase or decrease pres-
sure as needed after attempting adjustments in step 2.)
Step 2: Fluid Control
Fluid Volume Control - Fluid volume is adjusted by turn-
ing the Fluid Volume Control Knob. Turning knob in de-
creases volume, turning knob out increases volume. Once
a satisfactory volume is set, you can lock the adjustment
by turning the lock nut in tight.
Step 3: Spray Pattern Controls
Pattern Shape - The shape of the spray can be adjusted
from a round pattern to a flat pattern by turning the Pattern
Control Knob. Turning knob in rounds the pattern, turning
knob out flattens the pattern.
Pattern Orientation - A flat or semi-round spray pattern
can be adjusted to any angle from horizontal to vertical by
turning the Air Nozzle. Pattern is perpendicular to “ears”
on nozzle. That is, when the ears are horizontal, the spray
pattern will be vertical and when the ears are vertical the
spray pattern will be horizontal.
Warning!
Clean gun before and after each use.
To protect the precision machined internal parts and ttings in this gun from corrosion during shipping, some oils or other
corrosion resistant agents may have been applied. It is important to remove any such residue before attempting to use
the gun. To clean, place a small amount of appropriate thinner into paint cup and spray through gun while pulling and
releasing trigger repeatedly. Wipe exterior of gun, nozzles and paint cup. In some cases, if the gun becomes clogged,
disassemble completely and soak all parts in thinner. After soaking, use wire and cleaning brush to clear small internal
passages. Check and clean paint cup lter. Replace if worn.
