Material Flow Adjustment - Black+Decker BDPH200 Manual De Instrucciones

f Unscrew the lid on the side of the canister.
f Pour the properly thinned and strained material to be
sprayed into the side fill canister (Fig. D).
Tip: Use the mixing bucket provided to pour material from
the original material container into the side fill canister.
f Clean any residual liquid from the threads or sides of
the canister and sprayer.
f Starting the threads evenly, screw the lid completely
onto the side fill canister. Check the lid to make sure it
is threaded on squarely and completery before picking
up the sprayer.
OPERATION

MATERIAL FLOW ADJUSTMENT

Set the material volume by turning the material adjustment
knob on the trigger of the sprayer.
f For maximum material flow, thread knob all the way in
as shown in Fig. E.
f For minimum material flow, thread knob all the way
out as shown in Fig. E1.
The flow indicator on the side of the sprayer moves
forward (minimal liquid flow) and backward (maximum
liquid flow) as the trigg.
Tip: Always test the spray pattern on scrap cardboard or
similar material first. Begin with the material adjustment
knob on the highest flow setting (threaded all the way in). If
less flow is desired, dial the material adjustment knob out.
Heavier, thicker materials should be sprayed with the knob
dialed farther in. Thinner materials should be sprayed with
the knob dialed farther out.
SMART SELECT NOZZLE SELECTION (FIG.F)
There are three spray patterns to choose from. They are
marked as 1, 2 and 3 on the Smart Select label located on
the top of the sprayer (Fig. F). To select pattern number 1,
turn the spray nozzle and align the green indicator on the
spray nozzle with the number 1 on the label (Fig. F1).
Note: Spray nozzle can only be assembled in one
direction. Refer to Fig. S for proper assembly.
Pattern numbre 1: Horizontal flat Jet
- Apply up and down a surface.
Pattern numbre 2: Circular Jet - for
corners, edges and narrow suface.
para esquinas, bordes y superficies
angostas.
Tip: Position number 2 has a detent that
you can feel when you turn the spray
nozzle. Make sure it locates in the detent.
Pattern numbre 3: Vertical Flat Jet
Apply side to side.
Warning! Risk of injury. Never point the sprayer ay
any part of the body. Never pull the trigger while adjusting
the spray setting.
DEVELOPING THE PROPER
SPRAYING TECHNIQUE
f Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material such as
cardboard to test your spray pattern and become
familiar with the flow control feature of the sprayer.
f Ensure surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt,
and grease.
f Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could
be blown onto newly sprayed surfaces.
f Cover any areas not intended to be sprayed.
f Always spray from a minimum of 1 inch (25mm) to a
maximum of 14 inches (355mm) (Fig. G).
f A commonly used method for spraying a large surface
is the "crisscross" pattern. This is done by spraying in
horizontal strips and then crossing over these strips
with vertical strips.
f To get an even spray distribution, always keep your
arm at the same distance (Fig. G) from the surface you
are spraying and avoid moving your wrist (Fig. H).
f Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help
avoid inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has
begun and release trigger before stopping the pass.
f Avoid spraying too heavily in any one area. Several
lighter coats are better than one heavy coat which
can lead to running and dripping. Remember that the
flow control knob regulates the amount of liquid
that can be sprayed. Turning the flow knob
clockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning the
knob counterclockwise decreases the flow of liquid. If
runs or drips do occur, have a dry paint brush on hand
to smooth them out.
f Turn the power unit off when not spraying for any
length of time.
CLEANING
Warning! Be sure to use appropriate protective gear.
Use drop cloths during pouring, mixing, and viscosity
testing of materials to be sprayed to protect your floors
and anything else in the spraying area that you wish to
remain untouched.
f Do not use materials with a flashpoint higher than 60°C
(140°F) . Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid can
produce enough vapors to ignite (see coating supplier).
