OPERATIONS
EXPLOSION HAZARD! DO NOT smoke
or have any source of flame or spark
near spraying. Vapors will explode if
ignited.
RESPIRATORY HAZARD! Always use
respirator rated for organic vapor,
paints, and solvents when using your
spray equipment. Failure to protect
your lungs can lead to respiratory ill-
ness and nervous system damage.
Spraying
The Model W1798 spray gun set is
designed to spray low to medium
viscosity liquids, like lacquers, stains,
primers, multi-component paints,
acrylics, epoxies etc. It is ideal for auto
body touch-ups, woodworking projects,
or projects with hard to reach areas.
To use your spray gun, do these steps:
1. Read and follow the material
manufacturer's instructions for
spraying, mixing, safety, disposal,
and any other instruction on the label
or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
2. Ensure the reservoir is securely
tightened and all other fittings are
secure to avoid air leaks or material
spills.
3. Set the inlet air pressure (the air
coming to the spray gun) to the
lowest pressure recommended
in
Specifications on Page 4 or
to the material manufacturer's
recommendations, then adjust higher
as necessary.
4. Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical
or horizontal. See Atomizing Cap
and Fan Adjustments on Page 9 for
further explanation.
5. Fill the reservoir with the material to
be sprayed.
6. Trial and error are necessary to
achieve the results you want along
with a fair amount of practice. Test
your material flow and spray pattern
on a piece of cardboard or some
scrap of material similar to your
project.
TOXIC FUMES! Always use an approved
spray booth or well ventilated area
when spraying. NEVER spray in a con-
fined space where toxic fumes and
flammable vapors can accumulate to
deadly levels.
