Important Operating Instructions
CAUTION:
Do not stop when spraying. Spraying materials will start to set and dry as soon
as they come in contact with the air. They will cause a permanent clog if not cleared
immediately. If discontinuing spraying for more than half an hour, turn off the air supply,
disconnect paint cup from gun body, and thoroughly rinse the cup and gun body following
the paint manufacturer’s recommendation for cleaning, solvent type, and disposing of used
solvent.
4.
Pull trigger slowly and move the spray gun in parallel strokes to the work piece at about
14” to 16”, depending on the flow adjustment and the paint.

5.
To avoid paint build up, start moving the
spray gun
before
squeezing the trigger.
When finished with the stroke, release the
trigger while still moving the spray gun.
Doing this will produce a smoother finish.
Do not stop moving the spray gun while
spraying. If the spray gun stops even briefly
while spraying the paint will build up and run
down the work piece.
Note:
The stroke speed, the fluid knob adjustment, and the distance from the work piece
will determine how much paint is being applied. Apply two thin coats rather than one thick
coat.
CAUTION:
Air hose fillings may get hot. Allow fittings to cool before disconnecting, or wear
gloves to prevent burns.
6.
To prevent accidents, release the trigger, detach air supply, safely discharge any
residual air pressure, and again release the trigger after use.
7.
Clean the spray gun
immediately
after every use, according to instructions.
