figure 4. spraying technique.
tipping the spray gun may cause
material to spill out of the cup.
always hold the spray gun parallel to
the ground to avoid potential spills
and feed problems.
3. Move the cup lock lever against the
vacuum hose connection to release the
pressure between the cup hooks and
pin—this will disengage the cup lid from
the cup.
4. Fill the fluid cup with the desired mate-
rial, then place it on a flat, stable sur-
face.
5. Move the lock lever against the vacuum
relief hose connection, then place the
cup lid and gun body assembly on the
cup
6. engage the cup pins with the hooks,
then rotate the lock lever clockwise
until the lid is firmly secured.
to ensure the fluid cup does not leak
or spill material during the spraying
operation, always make sure the cup
is securely sealed to the lid with
both pins fully engaged with the
hooks.
10. Adjust the fluid control knob to start
with a low volume of material and keep
the atomization as low as possible.
you will need to use a combination of
fluid control, inlet air pressure, air flow
control and stroke speed to achieve the
results you want. spray so the material
wets out nicely without running or sag-
ging.
11. use the pattern control knob to adjust
the spray fan to your desired pattern.
12. Keep the gun tip perpendicular, parallel
and 6-12" from the work at all times
when spraying, as shown in
figure 4.
do not allow your wrist to bend. this will
cause the gun to arc across the surface
and distribute the material unevenly,
possibly creating sags and dry spots.
7. set the inlet air pressure (the air com-
ing to the spray gun) to the lowest
operating air pressure recommended
in the
tool data sheet on page 3 or
to the material manufacturer's recom-
mendations.
8. Connect the spray gun to the com-
pressed air.
9. Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical
or horizontal. see atomizing cap
adjustment on page 8 for a further
explanation.
note: Trial and error are necessary to
achieve the results you want along with
a fair amount of practice. Test your
material flow and spray pattern on a
piece of cardboard or some scrap of
material similar to your project.
13. Begin spraying 2-3 inches before the
work and continue the motion for a
few inches past the work until you are
ready for the return stroke.
