2. Adjust paint tank regulator to 25-30
psi. More pressure is needed on the
material as the gun is moved further
above the tank. Normal operating on
the paint tank is 5 to 10 psi. When
lower pressure is needed, rotate the
adjustment counterclockwise until the
desired pressure setting is obtained.
There is no need to trigger the gun in
order to bleed off excess paint
pressure. The sprayer may now be
used to apply paint.
Do not use over 60
psi in the tank.
