NOTE
►
Do not exceed the maximal viscosity of the
appliance. The spray material must not be
too thick. Otherwise, the appliance might
clog.
►
Ensure that the spray material and thinning
agent are compatible. Using an unsuitable
thinning agent may cause clots that clog the
appliance. Never mix synthetic resin
varnishes with cellulose thinners.
►
To find out which thinning agent is suitable for
your spray material (water, paint thinner),
refer to the manufacturer's notes provided
with the spray material.
►
Granular products and products containing
solids must not be sprayed. Their abrasive
effect will shorten the service life of the pump
and valve.

Carefully cover a large area around the spray
surface. Any surface that is not masked could
