NOTE: It is important to mix the material thoroughly
before you begin. Do not shake the material
to mix it. Always stir the material gently but
thoroughly before use.
NOTE: Remove any skin that has formed on the top
of the matierial. Do not mix the skin into the
material. The skin can break up and clog the
sprayer. Older stain may need to be strained.
FLOW CONTROL KNOB
The spray pattern is controlled by the flow control knob on the back
of the sprayer and by the thickness of the material being sprayed.
Turning the flow knob counterclockwise increases the amount
of material flow. Turning the flow knob clockwise decreases
the amount of material flow. To adjust the pattern:
1. Turn the flow knob fully counterclockwise to maximum.
2. Squeeze the trigger and test the pattern on a piece of scrap
wood or cardboard.
3. Turn the flow knob clockwise until you have a good
pattern.
• A poor spray pattern will concentrate the material in the
center of the spray and go on blotchy.
• A good spray pattern has an even amount of material
throughout the pattern in a fine spray and will go on smoothly.
NOTE: Always practice spraying on a piece of scrap
wood or cardboard to test your spray pattern.
Use the coverage rate recommended by the
material’s manufacturer.
NOTE: If you adjust the flow knob and still cannot get
a good pattern, you may need to thin the
material you are using.
