SPRAYING TECHNOLOGY
Move the spray gun evenly during the spraying process. If this
is not observed, an irregular spraying appearance will be the
result. Carry out the movement with the arm, not with the
wrist. A parallel distance of approx. 30 cm between the tip and
the surface to be coated should always be observed. The later-
al limitation of the spray fan should not to be too distinct. The
edge of spraying should be gradual to facilitate overlapping of
the next coat. The spray gun should always be held at an angle
of 90° to the surface to be coated. A spray fan aimed obliquely
at the surface to be coated leads to an unwanted spray cloud.
With the AirCoat technique, selecting the correct air cap is im-
portant.
Blue air cap: Optimized for water-based materials
Red air cap: Optimized for solvent-based materials
Green air cap: Suitable for both materials
In order to reduce the air consumption, the
pressure control valve should be adjusted so
that the material pressure when the gun is
closed is about 10 to 20 bar higher than when
spraying.

HANDLING THE HIGH-PRESSURE
HOSE
The unit is equipped with a high-pressure hose specially suit-
ed for diaphragm pumps.
Danger of injury through leaking high-pres-
sure hose. Replace any damaged high-pres-
sure hose immediately. Never repair defective
high-pressure hoses yourself!
The high-pressure hose is to be handled with care. Avoid sharp
bends and folds: the smallest bending radius is about 20 cm.
Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect against
sharp objects and edges.
Never pull on the high-pressure hose to move the device.
Make sure that the high-pressure hose cannot twist. This can
be avoided by using a Wagner spray gun with a swivel joint
and a hose system.
When using the high-pressure hose while
working on scaffolding, it is best to always
guide the hose along the outside of the scaf-
folding.
The risk of damage rises with the age of the
high-pressure hose.
Wagner recommends replacing high-pressure
hoses after 6 years.

Only use WAGNER original-high-pressure hoses
with internal heating in order to ensure func-
tionality, safety and durability.

INTERRUPTION OF WORK
1. Switch off unit, set multifunction switch to
lief, circulation), then to
2. Pull trigger guard of spray gun to decrease the pressure of
the high pressure hose and the spray gun.
3. Secure the spray gun, refer to the operating manual of the
spray gun.
4. Remove tip and store the tip in a small vessel with suitable
cleaning agent.
5. Leave the suction system immersed in the coating material
or immerse it in the corresponding cleaning agent. The suc-
tion filter and unit should not dry out.
6. Cover the material container in order to prevent the paint
from drying.
In using quick-drying or two-component coat-
ing materials, do not fail to rinse unit through
with a suitable cleaning agent during the pro-
cessing period.
