Preparations for use

Clean dusty surfaces so that the suction cups can grip
well. Otherwise a slight shift in position is possible.

Connecting the airbrush set

Be absolutely certain to disconnect the mains

plug before connecting the airbrush set to the
compressor and release the pressure in the lines
by actuating the vent of the air blow gun

.

Use the respective screw connection to connect

the spray stylus

with the coiled hose

2

and

the coiled hose to the airbrush connection

.

Use the included open-end wrench.

(see Ill. A).

Fasten the paint mixing beaker with connection

lid

to the spray stylus

3

(see Ill. B).

Insert the mains plug into the mains socket.

Note: For optimal results, professionals connect
an intermediate pressure reducer (not included
with delivery). The pressure reducer can be used
to adjust the compressed air at the spray gun
and optimise it to your needs.

Mixing paints for use

The paints included are water-soluble. In order to
properly apply the paints, add water and stir. As
delivered, the paints are too viscous.

First fill the beaker with your selected paint

colour with water.

Now screw the cover back on the beaker and

shake it.

Now remove two full droppers (1.5 mark on

the dropper) and fill these into a mixed glass
filled half way with water.

Shake the beaker. Now your paint has reached

the correct consistency.

Attach the paint mixing glass

5

according

to Ill. B.

Note: If desired, you can adjust the amount of
water added to influence the colour intensity
yourself as with a watercolour box. The more
water you add, the „thinner“ the colour.
You can also mix individualised colour tones
from the available colour pastes. Please take
note, there must be no paint clumps remaining

in the paint containers. The consistency should
correspond to that of water.
Note: If the paint used does not cover well, in-
crease the amount of paint in the mixture ratio.

Turning airbrush compressor

on / off

Turn the airbrush compressor

1

on by setting the

on / off switch

14

to the position “I“ (see Ill. C).

Turn the airbrush compressor

1

off by setting

the on / off switch

14

in the position “0“ (see

Ill. C).

Note: Full pressure is built up after two seconds.

Regulating the air pressure

Regulate the air pressure by actuating the vent

of the air blow gun

9

to more or less of an

extent.

ATTENTION! The device has a pressure switch,
which periodically and automatically turns the de-
vice off if there is excess pressure or if it is not in use.
Shortly before reaching the switch-off point, the
compressor runs more roughly and vibrates. This
may also be the case when re-started under load.
The performance and functionality are not impaired
by this. This is not a defect, rather, serves to protect
the compressor from overloading.

Regulating the spraying results

Regulate the amount of the paint supplied by

turning the paint nozzle of the spray stylus to
the right or left (see Ill. B).

Connecting the air hose

Connect the air hose

8

to the airbrush compres-

sor

1

. Use the included open-end spanner

13

to do so (compare Fig. A).
