Spraying

Ensure the fill/spray

toggle switch is in the

FILL/OFF position

and that the mud flow

control is turned all

the way in the coun-

terclockwise direction.

Finally, make sure the

air flow control on the gun is turned to the off

position.

Connect the air com-

pressor hose to the

male air inlet on the

pneumatic assembly.

Set the air compressor

to 40 psi and adjust

as desired. DO NOT

EXCEED 120 PSI.

DOING SO COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS

INJURY.

Once the air compres-

sor hose is connected,

put the backpack on.

There are several

adjustments that can

be made to the straps

to ensure a comfort-

able, snug fit. Once the

backpack is in a secure and comfortable posi-

tion, flip the fill/spray toggle switch to SPRAY

and adjust the gun airflow by opening the ball

valve at the base of the gun.

While holding down the

trigger of the gun, begin

adjusting the mud flow.

Simply lift and turn the

mud flow control in a

clockwise direction to

increase flow and turn

counterclockwise to

decrease flow. This may require spraying

some material onto a scrap sheet of material.

Once the desired mud

flow is achieved, lock

the mud flow con-

trol by pushing the

outer portion of the

dial back down. DO

NOT ATTEMPT TO

OVERTIGHTEN THE

KNOB. DOING SO COULD RESULT IN

COMPONENT FAILURE AND SERIOUS

INJURY.

You are now ready to use the ENFORCER™

NOTE: There are several adjustments that

can be made to the Sharpshooter 2.0, the

ENFORCER, and the compressor to get the

texture of spray you desire.

The more open the trigger; the more

material will be applied with a resulting

coarser pattern.

• The higher the air pressure, the finer the

pattern; the lower the air pressure, the

coarser the pattern.

• The higher the air flow, the finer the

pattern; the lower the air flow, the coarser

the pattern.

• Larger orifice openings will produce a

coarser pattern than will a smaller opening.

• Of the three most popular patterns, orange

peel, knockdown, and popcorn – orange

peel and knockdown are generally applied

to walls while popcorn aggregate is a

ceiling finish.

• The more open the mud flow control on the

ENFORCER™, the more mud that will be

applied.

To apply orange peel: select the second

smallest opening (#6) in the orifice plate, set

the trigger so that the end of the air nozzle

is approximately 1/8" (3.18 mm) from the ori-

fice plate. Air pressure should be 22–30 psi.

Again, before spraying the finished product,

check for the desired texture on a scrap piece

of sheetrock.

To apply knockdown: also referred to as

splatter, change the orifice plate to the middle

opening (.315"/8.0 mm dia.) (#4), set the trig-

ger fully open. The air pressure should be

reduced to 18–25 psi. Again, before spraying

finished product, check for the desired texture

on a scrap piece of sheetrock.
