Setup
At least one hose must provide a static
ground to the gun.
•
Check that your shop air provides
adequate air flow. 12.5 cfm com-
pressor minimum recommended
for best results.
•
Use a minimum 3/8 in. (10 mm) ID
air hose.
•
Set shop air pressure regulator
(not supplied) according to paint
manufacturer's recommendation.
See maximum compliant air
pressures on page 2.
•
Make sure no air restrictions, such as
low-volume cheater-valves, obstruct
the air flow. If an air adjusting valve is
desired, use a SHARPE Air Adjusting
Valve (part nos. 2210, 3310, U04410)
or Digi-tell (part no. U05510).
•
Install a shutoff valve (not supplied)
downstream of the air regulator to
shut off gun air.
