Grounding Instructions; Preparing To Spray - WAGNER 2600 Manual Del Propietário

Introduction
This High Volume/Low Pressure (HVLP) system is designed
for applying coatings to surfaces which can be sprayed faster
than brushing or rolling and are too small for traditionally
airless sprayers.
With this HVLP system you can achieve the highest quality
professional finish possible with little or no preparation or setup
time. Please review all the information contained in this
manual before operating the system.
Service
Should your system need service during the warranty period,
return your unit and the proof of purchase to the distributor
where it was purchased. At our option the unit will be repaired
or replaced. In a continued commitment to improve quality,
Wagner reserves the right to make component or design
changes when necessary.
Safety
Use only a 3- wire extension cord that has a 3- blade
grounding plug, and a 3- slot receptacle that will accept the
plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating.
NOTE : More than 100 feet of extension cord is not
recommended. Use more paint hose, not more
extension cord. Shorter extension cords will
assure maximum electrical power for proper
operation.

Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product
is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an

Preparing to spray

Before spraying, the material being used must be thinned with an appropriate solvent. It is always best to follow the material
manufacturers recommendations and thinning procedures.
There are two simple methods of measuring the proper thickness of a material:
1. Dip a paint stick into the material and remove it, watching carefully as the material runs off. When the material begins to
form drops, the drops should fall about 1 second apart.
2. Use a Wagner viscosity cup (P/N 0153165). Dip the cup into the material and remove it. Use a watch or clock to time how
long the material drains from the cup in a continuous stream. Once the continuous stream breaks, stop timing and refer to
the table below. Add the appropriate solvent and continue testing until the proper thickness is reached for the type of
material you are using.
Material % of reduction
Latex 20-25%
Oil 10-20%
Epoxy 1-10%
Clear wood finish Full strength
Varnish Mfg. Recommendations
Polyurethane 10%
Sealer Full strength
Oil-based primer 15-20%
Fast-dry enamel 25%
Stain Full strength
Metal primer 15%
Industrial enamel 15%
Aluminum paint Full strength
Lacquer sealer Mfg. Recommendations
Lacquer 50%
3. Thread the spray hose onto the turbine once the material is the proper thickness.
Note: To connect the spray hose to your spray gun, or for instructions on how to use and care for your spray gun,
refer to the manual that came with your gun.

appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER — Improper installation of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do
not connect the green grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that
is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire
and must be connected to grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in
doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A
temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated in
sketch B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2 pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear lug, or the
like extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place
by a metal, screw.
