atomizing cap

adjustment

to ensure good spraying results, the atom-
izing cap must be correctly orientated for
the direction of the stroke pattern—either
horizontal or vertical.

spraying in the wrong direction may lead
to material build-up on the atomizing cap
horn. Many performance problems are
caused by clogged atomizing holes. in this
case, clean the spray gun (see

ceaning

on

page 10)

if the stroke pattern is side-to-side,
the horns of the atomizing cap must
be arranged horizontally, as shown in
figure 7.

Conversely, if the stroke pattern is up-and-
down, the atomizing cap horns should be
vertical, as shown in

figure 8.

pattern control

the pattern control knob on the rear of
the gun body controls the spray output
between a round pattern and a wide fan,
as illustrated in
