Spraying Technique

adjusting the spray tip assembly:

The adjustable spray tip assembly produces

a pattern that can be adjusted horizontally

or vertically. Rotate the spray adjustment

guard as shown.

To prevent an injection hazard,

make sure the sprayer is

unplugged before you adjust the

spray tip. Make sure the spray tip

is sufficiently hand tightened.

Spraying Technique

Keep your arm moving at constant speed and

keep the sprayer at a constant distance from the

surface. The sprayer should be triggered at the

beginning of the stroke and released at the end

of the stroke.

never tip the sprayer at more

than a 45º angle when spraying

overhead. Material could get into

the motor housing and cause an

electric shock.

Keep the sprayer at a consistent distance to

the surface. This means moving your entire

arm back and forth rather than just flexing

your wrist. Overlap each stroke by 50%.

IMPORTanT: If material is leaking from the threads

of the spray tip, turn off the sprayer immediately or

the sprayer could be damaged. The sprayer will leak

from behind the spray tip if the atomizer valve is not

seated properly. If you notice material leaking from

this area, follow the steps below.

1. Unplug the sprayer immediately.
Remove the spray tip by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Remove the atomizer valve and see if it needs to

be cleaned or replaced (see page 11). Also check

the pump housing opening for any dirt or other

obstruction and clean if necessary.

3. Put the atomizer valve back in place, making sure it

can seat properly without any obstruction.

4. Thread on the spray tip by turning it clockwise and

tighten firmly by hand.
