1. To obtain the best results always keep your spray gun level and spray equally from side-to-side or up-or-down

from the surface. Avoid spraying at an angle as this will lead to runs on the surface (Figs.5-7).

2. Let your arm control the side-to-side movement rather than your wrist as this will aid even paint distribution over

the whole area.

3. Do not tip the spray gun more than a 45˚ angle when the motor is switched OFF.

Paints, varnishes, wood treatments, etc, are manufactured using a variety of materials and have widely different

viscosities. You may find that the 0.08” (2.0mm) dia fluid tip and needle supplied with this spray gun does not enable

you to spray your particular choice of finish exactly as you would like. In such cases a change of fluid tip and needle

size will probably solve this problem. In general, thicker, more viscose materials are best sprayed through a larger

fluid tip to give best coverage. Thinner, less viscose materials are best sprayed through a smaller fluid tip.

To allow for these variations fluid tip and needle sets are available as optional extras in 0.04” 1.0mm) dia, 0.06”

(1.5mm) dia and 0.10” (2.5mm) dia (See page 6).

TECHNIQUE

FLUID TIPS AND NEEDLES

1. Evenly control the speed of movement of the spray gun. A fast speed will give a thin coat and a slow speed will

give a heavy coat.

2. Only apply one coat at a time. If a further coat is required follow the paint manufacturer’s instructions for drying

times.

3. If spraying small areas or objects keep the Fluid Adjusting Screw (12) setting low as this will avoid excessive use

of paints and will minimise overspray.

4. When spraying large areas or objects, it is best to use a criss-cross pattern, either from left-to-right then up-or-

down or vice-versa. This will ensure maximum coverage. Let go of Trigger (25) at the end of each spray movement

to avoid excessive paint and drips (Fig.4).

5. Avoid stopping and starting when spraying as this can lead to too much or not enough material on a surface.

6. To ensure edges are covered, commence spraying just to the side of area being sprayed.

7. CLEAN SPRAY GUN AFTER EVERY USE (SEE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS).

HELPFUL HINTS

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

THE SPRAY GUN SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY CLEANED AND THE GLAND WASHERS LUBRICATED,

IMMEDIATELY AFTER EACH USE. IF THE PAINT DRIES INSIDE THE GUN CLEANING WILL BE MUCH MORE

DIFFICULT AND MAY RENDER THE GUN INOPERABLE. THIS IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.

Flush out the residue paint from the spray gun, as follows:

• Remove the Paint Container (17) from the spray gun.

• Pour any residual paint into its original container for future use.

• Use a cloth soaked in thinners to wipe out excess paint from the container, the underside of the Lid (20) and the

Gasket (19).

• Pour a small quantity of clean thinners into the container, refit the container to the spray gun and shake the gun

lightly.

• Now spray all of the thinners through the gun.

• Repeat this each time using clean thinners until there is no trace of paint in the thinners being sprayed.

To thoroughly clean the remainder of the spray gun, remove all working parts as per the exploded parts view on page

4 as follows:

• Loosen and remove Air Cap Ring (1), Air Cap (2) and Air Distributor Plate (3).

• Unscrew Adjusting Screw (12) and pull out Fluid Needle (9) and Spring (11).

• Using Spanner (27) supplied remove Fluid Tip (4) and Fluid Tip Seal (5).

PAINT VOLUME

The volume of paint sprayed is easily adjustable (Fig.3). Completely close Fluid Adjusting Screw (12) by turning

clockwise as far as it will go. Whilst pulling the Trigger (25), begin turning the Fluid Adjusting Screw (12)

anticlockwise until the volume of paint you require is obtained. If the spray contains too much paint turn the Fluid

Adjusting Screw (12) clockwise to reduce it.

Once you have set the spray pattern and the paint volume, you are ready to spray.
