IMPORTANT: To operate correctly, this tool requires airflow that is at least 4.4 cubic feet per

minute (CFM) at 60 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

Proper handling of the gun is essential for obtaining a good finish. The gun should be held at a

90 ° angle to the surface being covered and moved parallel to it. For precise control keep the

gun 6-12 inches away from the surface and material. The trigger should be released before the

end of the stroke for a uniform and consistent covering. To achieve a consistent covering it is

recommended to hold the gun 6-12 inches away, depending on the material and atomizing

pressure and item being sprayed. For uniform finish lap each stroke over the preceding stroke,

making sure the spray is smooth, and wet. Using the lowest possible atomizing air pressure will

reduce overspray and provide maximum efficiency.

REPAIR INSTRUCTION

Remove air pressure from air hose / gun.

CAUTION:

Take care not to damage the seals on the gun body when removing the

air distribution ring.

a. Remove air cap w/ring by turning counter clockwise (See Figure 1).

Counter clockwise

b. Unscrew the fluid adjustment knob by turning counter clockwise (See Figure 2).

c. Pull out needle spring and paint needle (See Figure 3).

d. Remove paint nozzle using wrench provided (See Figure 4).

2. Pull out the air distribution ring using needle-nose pliers

and remove dirt (See Figure 5).

3.The clean air distribution ring must be inserted in a way that the plastic pin marked

with an arrow (1) fits smoothly into the hole marked (2) (See Figure 6). Firmly push

in the air distribution ring in place (See Figure 7). Insert the paint nozzle and tighten

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE: There are two methods for properly submerging spray gun nozzle into

cleaning solvent material(s).

Method 2: Keeping the Spray gun nozzle attached to the

NOTE: Make sure that you never submerge any part of the

spray gun housing into solvent material(s), as air passages

would become clogged with dirty solvent. This would

the gaskets inside the gun housing

to dry out, causing faster wear and tear on the

material

Method 1: Remove the spray gun nozzle completely from

spray gun and place into a container that will not cause

solvent deterioration when solvent material(s) are added

2. Let nozzle sit in solvent material(s) for 3-5 minutes allowing solvent material(s) to

break up any build up of dirt and or debris on spray nozzle.

3. Remove nozzle from solvent material(s) and closely inspect the spray gun nozzle

to ensure any

dirt or debris build up has been cleared.

NOTE: Depending on the paint and solvent material(s) used, steps 1-4 may need to

be repeated multiple times.

4. If debris or build up is still present, use a non-wire soft bristle brush and brush area

of nozzle that still contains dirt or debris and repeat steps 1-4.

5. Once the spray gun nozzle has been completely cleared of any dirt or debris and is

clean, wipe the nozzle clean with a clean cloth or rag.

6. Once nozzle has been properly cleaned, reconnect the nozzle to the spray gun and

reconnect the spray gun to the air supply. Test the sprayer ensuring that it is

working properly.

(See Fig. 14).

Storing

1. When not using the spray gun turn the fluid adjustment knob counterclockwise (to

open) which will reduce the spring tension on the needle fluid tip.

2. Spray gun must be well cleaned and lightly lubricated.

3. Store spray gun in a dry and safe place out of reach of children.

end of the spray gun only (See Fig. 15). Make sure that only

the spray gun nozzle is submerged in solvent material(s). (If

using method 2, (not completely removing spray gun nozzle),

make sure a suitable container is used which can not easily

tip over. If the container used does tip over, you will spill

solvent material(s), causing a potential safety hazard.

Ne retirez pas le déflecteur en laiton fixé à l'avant du corps du pistolet car une

formation technique spéciale et certains outils sont nécessaires. Le retrait de cette

pièce devrait être confié aux centres de réparation et d'entretien autorisés.

Pour éviter de déformer le filetage, toutes les pièces du pistolet de pulvérisation

devraient d’abord être serrées solidement à la main. Si le serrage à la main s’avère

difficile, assurez-vous qu’il s’agit des bonnes pièces. Dévissez-les, ajustez-les et

tentez de les visser de nouveau avec plus de force.
