SELECTING A SPRAY TIP
See Figure 12.
Spray tips come in a variety of hole sizes and fan widths.
Your unit includes two reversible spray tips with a
hole size of 0.4 cm that will work for a wide variety of
applications. The 415 spray tip has a fan width of 20.3 -
30.5 cm. The 515 spray tip has a fan width of 25.4 - 30.5
cm.
HOLE SIZE:
Spray tip hole size determines the flow
rate, that is the amount of paint that is discharged from
sprayer.
A larger hole size is best for thicker materials. A smaller
hole size is best for thinner materials.
FAN SIZE:
Fan width determines the size of the spray
pattern when sprayer is held approximately 30.5 cm. from
surface to be painted.
A narrow fan width will provide thicker coverage of
material and is better suited for small, tight areas.
A wide fan width will give thinner coverage of material
and provide better coverage on large, broad areas.
SPRAY TIP NUMBERS:
When selecting a spray tip,
the last three numbers of the spray tip number contains
information on hole size and fan width.
For example if the spray tip number is 1415, the 4, when
doubled is the approximate fan width of paint when
applied 30.5 cm from surface. The last two numbers, 15,
refer to the hole size in inches. In this case 0.4 cm.

SPRAY TIP WEAR:
It is important to replace or spray
tips when they become worn. A worn spray tip will cause
uneven application and finish of material. Over time the
spray tip hole size increases and the width of the fan
spray decreases.
When using water based paint, spray tips need to be
replaced between 56.78 and 151.42 liter. For oil based
materials, replace spray tips after 132.49 to 227.12 liter
of use.
To increase the life of your spray tips, use the lowest
pressure setting needed to apply an even coating of
materia.
SPRAYING
