IMPORTANT: To operate correctly, this tool requires airflow that is at least 1.7 cubic feet per

minute (CFM) at 25 pounds per square inch (PSI). Check the specifications of your air compressor

to be sure that it can support both the minimum CFM and PSI required. An air hose may cause

up to 15 PSI drop in pressure, so you may need to set the output higher to maintain the required

pressure at the tool.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

You must consider and deal with the following variables in setting up your

hopper gun to ensure consistent and desired results:

Air Supply: The hopper gun requires a compressor that produces 7 CFM

at 25 PSI. The supply of

air must remain consistent or it will affect the texture.

eht ,erusserp eht rewol ehT :erusserP heavier the texture. The normal

pressure ranges in spans between 10 and 30 PSI. Medium s platter & orange

peel are sprayed at 17-23 PSI.

Material Orifice:

Always use the largest material orifice (8 mm). Medium splatter & orange

peel use the medium material orifice (6 mm).

Trigger Pull Distance:

Distance with the knob on the back of the gun. Adjusting the distance is very

important to maintaining consistency.

BEFORE SPRAYING

1. Use tape and heavy canvas drop cloths to protect areas you don't want sprayed. Thin plastic

drop cloths will not provide adequate protection.

2. Do not spray 100% vertically or you will lose efficiency.

3. Plan your path and ensure you have mixed enough material before you begin to avoid

disruption of your work.

4. You should always spray test an old piece of plywood or cardboard before you begin.

5. Always make sure you wear the proper safety equipment when using this item

A. Alw c lacitrev ro llaw ruoy morf .tf 5 ot 3 nigeb sya eiling.

B. Start from the top at an edge or a corner.

C. Move the gun up and down covering the wall vertically in your designated

space. From the bottom, move sideways and work your way up.

D. Repeat this motion from top to bottom, then sideways bottom to top, then

sideways until you have covered the wall.

E. Refill the hopper gun as needed.

SPRAYING WALLS & VAULT CEILINGS VERTICALLY

SPRAYING CEILINGS AND HORIZONTAL SURFACES

A. Fill the hopper gun no more than 75% full with your spray material.

B. Open the shut-off valve and run air through the hopper gun.

C. Lift the hopper gun until it is approximately 1-1/2 to 2 ft. below the ceiling

and angle the gun between 25 and 60 degrees.

D. Always start near a corner or an edge.

E. Begin spraying and move tow eht dra opposite corner or edge.

F. Move backwa ts tuohtiw dr opping and move tow eht dra original starting

G.

Repeat these procedures until you have covered the entire ceiling.

GENERAL NOTES

The hopper gun will shoot anything that can be gravity fed and atomized (the

degree of atomization is predicated on having the required PSI and CFM

available from the air source).

The compressor should provide a minimum of 7 CFM at 25 PSI.

Make sure your mix can be used with hopper guns by checking the label and

manufacturer's instructions.

You can test mixing one cup of joint compound per hopper to help the flow of

the spray.

Note that the hopper gun does not have an internal valve. If you do not want

air to continuously flow, install the shut-off valve where the hose enters the gun.

Never use the shut-off valve with the compressor. Only use the shut-off valve

with an air compressor that has a reserve tank and an automatic shut-off

switch.

To spray walls, your distance should be 3 to 4 ft.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

11

CLEANING YOUR HOPPER GUN

1. Use water to fill and then clean out the hopper. Then reconnect to the air

compressor and blow air through to remove any remaining debris.

2. Make sure the valve is open if you use an air shut-off valve.

3. Turn the hopper gun upside down and lubricate with household oil by

dropping oil in the quick disconnect (with the air shut-off valve in th e open

position). This lubricates the air stem and O-rings.

4. Pull the trigger several times and close the shut-off valve.

ASSEMBLING AND DISASSEMBLING YOUR HOPPER GUN

Taking Your Hopper Gun Apart

1. Take out the material orifice by turning the nut counterclockwise.

2. Remove the knurled knob by turning it counterclockwise until it comes out.

3. Using your finger push the center stem out of the gun through the rear.

TO REASSEMBLE:

1. Before you put the hopper gun back

together wipe a small amount of

lithium-based grease on the O-rings of

the adjustable stop assembly.

2.

Replace the center stem from the rear.

Make sure not to tear up the O-rings when

reassembling.

3.

Replace the knurled knob by turning it

clockwise.

4.

Put in your material orifice and secure

turning the nut clockwise.

Long Term Storage:

Make sure to store in dry secure location.
