OPEARATING INSTRUCTIONS
4. Fill the Paint Cup (F) about 3/4 of the way and
secure the Cup Lid (G) by turning it clockwise.
5. With the spray gun 6 in. to 9 in. away from
workpiece, spray a short burst while turning
the fluid knob counterclockwise. Observe the
spray pattern on the workpiece and adjust the
fluid control knob (D) (see Figure 3) until desired
pattern/atomization is obtained. If the spray is too
fine (caused by too much air), reduce the air
pressure or open the fluid control knob (D) to
spray more paint. If the spray is too coarse or
spitting blobs, reduce the amount of paint with the
fluid control knob (D) or thin the paint more
(See Figure 5).
NOTE The fluid control knob (D) can be adjusted
either clockwise or counterclockwise to finely
adjust the pattern consistency. Before spraying on
workpiece, practice a few minutes on a cardboard
target to ensure that the pattern size and consistency
are set correctly.
6. Keep the gun at a 90° angle to the surface (See
Figure 6) while spraying.
NOTE Always keep the gun in motion while spraying.
Stopping gun movement in mid-stroke will cause a
build-up of paint and will result in runs. Do not fan the
gun from side to side while painting. This will cause a
build-up of paint in the center of the stroke and an
insufficient coating at each end (See Figure 7).
