Replacing the Cup Gasket

The cup gasket must be replaced periodically due to normal wear. It is

important to inspect the cup gasket during each cleaning.
1. Release the cup locking lever.
2. Hold the cup and twist the spray gun in the direction

indicated by the arrows on the bridge.

3. Lift the spray gun away from the cup.
4. Pull the worn cup gasket out of the lid.
5. Press a new cup gasket into the lid.
6. Place the spray gun onto the top of the cup.

arrows on the bridge until the pegs on the cup are in the

notches of the bridge.

8. Tighten the cup locking lever.

Converting to a Single Pin Trigger

The trigger on your HVLP spray gun can be converted to a single pin

setup for a softer pull. Trigger pull is reduced by removing the upper

trigger pin and operating the gun with only the lower trigger pin in

place. This setup reduces finger fatigue and provides greater control

when spraying thin, light viscosity materials such as stains, varnishes,

and sealers.
1. Remove the retaining clip on the upper trigger pin by placing

the flat edge of a screwdriver between the clip and the pin

and gently prying it off.

2. Pull the trigger pin out from the opposite side of the gun.

Choosing a Projector Set

Your HVLP spray gun should be fitted with the proper projector set

for the type of work you will be performing. A projector set consists

of a needle assembly, a fluid nozzle, and an air cap.

You should choose a projector set based on two things: the type of

material to be sprayed and the finish desired.
The chart on page 9 should help you to make the right choice.

Changing a Projector Set

1. Remove the air cap ring, air cap, and spring plate.
