Technique (recommend viewing of DVD)

When spraying always keep your spray gun at the same distance from the surface, avoid moving your wrist as this will give

you an uneven paint distribution. You should spray a maximum distance of 25 - 30cm from a surface, this will give you your

maximum spray width (Fig.6).

BE CAREFUL NOT TO APPLY TOO MUCH PAINT IN THE SAME AREA AS THIS WILL LEAD TO SAGS AND DRIPS –

APPLYING LIGHT COATS IS ALWAYS BETTER UNTIL YOU GAIN CONFIDENCE AS YOU CAN ALWAYS GO BACK

OVER WHAT YOU HAVE SPRAYED.

The most commonly used technique for painting a large surface is the ‘criss-cross hatching’ technique (pictured on right), i.e.

you spray the paint in a horizontal strip and then cross over these strips by spraying the paint in vertical strips.

1. Separate the air hose from both the head unit and the gun. Unclip the head unit from the Gemini

Bucket

(Fig.21) and remove the Paint Pick-Up Tube (18) (Fig.22). Clean the Pick-Up Tube (18) thoroughly

>>>using the bottle brush (#11, box checklist). Also remove Filter Cage (18a) and clean thoroughly.

Re-assemble and then reconnect to the head unit.

2. Set the head unit on top of a separate waste bucket filled with approximately 4 litres of warm

soapy water. Turn pump on and set paint speed dial to #5 (Fig.23). Pointing the gun into the

>>>paint pot (or your tin of paint), pull trigger and carefully expel remaining paint into paint pot.

Let go of the trigger as soon as water starts to come out of the gun. With the pump still on, you

can now clean the Pressure Relief Tube (Fig.22) by turning the pump dial to #1, leave for a

>>>few seconds then back to #5, leave for a few seconds and then back to #1 again. Repeat this

>>>process for 30 seconds. Switch off the pump.

3. At this point, replace the water in the waste bucket with clean warm soapy water. (Approximately

4L again). Now with the paint speed dial set to #5, switch on the pump, point the gun into the

spare paint pot and depress the trigger for about 10 seconds and then release for 10 seconds.

>>>Repeat this process until you have discharged about 2 litres of water into the pot. Switch off the

>>>pump.

4. Release the pressure in the Paint Tube (13) by pointing the gun into the Paint Pot (12) and pulling

>>>the trigger. Then disconnect the paint tube from head unit and the gun (Fig.24). Clean the gun

>>>and paint tube at the tap. Use the tap connector (Fig.24 a) provided to clean the paint tube

>>>thoroughly. Take a hose clip (#8 box checklist), using the small end secure the paint tube to the

>>>tap connector (#9 box checklist). Ensure that you hold the connector onto the tap and gradually

>>>increase the water flow. Remove needle for best cleaning.

Tip: Squeeze and flex the paint tube to remove all the paint from inside the tube.

5. Wipe any excess paint off the Gemini Bucket (25) and head unit with a warm damp cloth. This will

>>>ensure your SprayStation Gemini

is ready for your next painting project.
