Keep the distance from the object being painted at 6” to 9”. This may slightly differ depending on the flow adjustment and the material being sprayed. Do not stop the gun movement while spraying. If you stop the gun for even just a slight pause while spraying, the paint will build up and run down the workpiece. FIGURE 5 (Heavier coat on one side, uneven coverage) Incorrect (Even coverage) Correct (90o) 2. To ensure you don’t allow paint to build up, start moving the Spray Gun before you Squeeze the Trigger. When you are finished spraying, release the Trigger before you stop moving the Spray Gun. Doing so will eliminate distinct overlaps, producing a blended (feathered) affect. See FIGURE 6 below. EndBegin ReleaseSqueeze Stroke Trigger FIGURE 6 Trigger Stroke (Top View) Note: The speed of the stroke, the adjustment of the Fluid Control Knob (28a or 29, and the distance from the workpiece, will determine how much paint is being applied. To get the best results, try to apply two thin coats of paint versus one thick coat. 3. Clean out the gun thoroughly after EVERY use, according to the instructions found on the next page. Page 10 SKU 93974 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 Operation Paint and Materials Preparation Verify with the paint or materials supplier the percentage of thinning required for use with these Sprayers. Try thinning a small amount and testing the spray action.Thoroughly mix material before testing. Viscosity Viscosity is the technical term used to indicate the liquidity (thickness or thinness) of the material being sprayed. Viscosity is measured in the number of seconds required for the material to pass through the viscosity tester (not included). We recommend that you use a viscosity tester and follow all of the directions in the viscosity tester’s safety and operations manual. Preparing the area 1. Mask all objects you do not want sprayed. 2. Lay a Paint Cloth (not included) on the floor, and attach Paint Cloths (not included) to the surrounding walls. Preparing and Operating both Spray Guns Note: We recommend you practice on scrap material to adjust and become familiar with the Gun. 1. Remove the lid from the Paint Cup (47) or (34a). Insert a Filter (included) into the top of the Paint Cup. This will prevent dirt and debris from entering the Paint Cup. 2. Fill the cup with material that has already been checked for viscosity. Close the Paint Cup tightly to avoid leakage. Mount the Paint Cup to the Spray Gun. Make sure that the Paint Cup is securely attached. 3. Connect the air source hose to the Air Inlet (40) or (23a). Turn on your air compressor. Do not exceed the maximum PSI. 4. Squeeze the Trigger slowly and move the Spray Gun in parallel strokes to the object being painted. Keep the distance from the object being painted at 6” to 9”. This may slightly differ depending on the flow adjustment and the material being sprayed. 5. Release the Trigger after each forward movement; squeeze the Trigger again on the return movement. 6. When using a vertical pattern, move the Spray Gun in a horizontal motion; with a horizontal pattern move the Spray Gun in a vertical motion. A round pattern requires a greater distance from the object being painted. Note: Gun adjustments on page 7-9. 7. When finished, release the Trigger and disconnect the sprayer from the air source. The Paint Cup and Spray Gun may still hold air pressure; fire the Spray Gun toward scrap material until all of the pressure is expended. 8. Immediately follow the Maintenance instructions on page 13 and 14 to avoid paint quickly drying in your Spray Gun, making it difficult to clean. Page 11 SKU 93974 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 IMPORTANT: The Spray Gun must be cleaned IMMEDIATELY after use. Improper cleaning is a common reason for the Spray Gun not to work properly. Materials dry quickly which will render the gun useless. It is extremely difficult to remove dry paint from small passages within the Gun. Maintenance SOLVENT SELECTION Always follow the paint manufacturer’s recommendations for cleaning, solvent type, and disposing of used solvent. Latex Paints: Use warm, soapy water. IMPORTANT: Do not use mineral spirits on latex paints or the mixture will congeal making it very difficult to remove. Oil Based Paints: Use mineral spirits. IF A FLAMMABLE SOLVENT NEEDS TO BE USED, ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING: 1. Follow all of the solvent manufacturer’s clean up instructions and safety precautions at all times. 2. Always flush the Spray Gun a full hose length from the air compressor. 3. If collecting flushed solvents into a metal container, transfer into a larger nonmetal container, and flush the metal container. 4. Work far away from any ignition sources in a vapor free area. After each use: 1. Empty the Paint Cup and clean it with the solvent. 2. Fill the Paint Cup with solvent and spray it through the Gun into a container, while shaking the gun. Once the Paint Cup is empty, repeat the process until t...
