Using the Paint Volume Control Dial
The paint Volume Control dial is used to increase or decrease
the flow of paint being sprayed from the spray gun. For Larger
surface spraying, the maximum flow is recommended. For
smaller surface spraying, the minimum flow is recommended.
Note: Before using the spray gun on your work piece make sure
you undertake a test spray on a scrap piece of material.
1. To increase the paint flow, turn the
Paint Volume Control dial in a
anti-clockwise direction as per
Fig H direction.
2. To decrease the paint flow, turn
the Paint Volume Control dial in
an anti-clockwise direction.
(refer Fig H).
Adjusting the Spray Pattern
There are 3 Spray Patterns to choose from to suit your painting task:
A. Vertical flat jet for horizontal surfaces
B. Horizontal flat jet for vertical surfaces.
C. Round jet for corners and edges and other badly accessible
places
1. To select your spray pattern, first loosen the air cup nut (9) by
turning it approximately 1 full turn or until the air cap (7)
is loose enough to move.
2. To set the spray pattern to a Vertical spray pattern, move the
air cap to Position 1 as shown in Fig I. Once the air cap is in
position, hold the air cap in place whilst re-securing the air cap
Nut by turning it in a clockwise direction. Secure until tight.
3. To set the spray pattern to a Horizontal spray pattern, move the
air cap to Position 2 as shown in Fig I. Once the air cap is in
position, hold the air cap in place whilst re-securing the air cap
nut by turning it in a clockwise direction. Secure until tight.
4. To set the spray pattern to a Round spray pattern, move the
air cap to Position 3 as shown in Fig I. Once the nozzle is in
position, hold the air cap in place
whilst re-securing the air cap
nut by turning it in a clockwise
direction. Secure until tight.
Note:
Never press the trigger when
making adjustments on the air cap.
Cleaning and Maintenance
It is recommended to clean the Spray Gun after EVERY use.
If the spray gun is not cleaned properly after each use, the gun will
not perform correctly the next time of use. Failures due to improper
cleaning and maintenance are not covered under warranty.
Proper maintenance and cleaning will increase the life
of the Sprayer.
1. Turn off the sprayer and make sure it is disconnected from the
mains power supply.
2. Press the spray trigger so that the remaining material in the
spray gun runs back into the container.
3. Unscrew the container in a clockwise direction and remove
the paint pot from the sprayer (Fig J). Return the remaining
material in the paint pot back into the material can or other
suitable paint storage container.
4. Clean the paint pot and suction tube with a brush and water.
5. After cleaning the paint pot, fill it with solvent or water, and screw
the paint pot back onto the lid on the sprayer in order to run the
water/solvent back through the spray gun to clear any remaining
paint material within the suction tube and gun (Fig K).
Note:
Only use solvent with a flash point of over 21°C
6. Plug the sprayer back into the mains power supply, turn on the
sprayer on, and then spray the solvent or water into another
container for disposal.
7. If the suction tube is not used, some solvent or water will be
deposited outside the container. This is due to the high air volume.
8. Repeat the above procedure until clear solvent or water comes
out of the nozzle.
9. Turn off the sprayer and make sure it is disconnected from the
mains power supply
10. Completely empty the paint pot. Always keep the container
seal free of coating material and check for damage.
