13. Setting the Amount of Air (Fig. 14)

Depending on the viscosity of the material to be sprayed and the finish of the object to 

be coated, it may be advisable to vary the amount of air. Very low viscosity materials, such 

as watery glazes do not have to be atomised with the maximum amount of air. 
This also applies for the use of the Detail and Corner&Reach spray attachment (accessory).

Spray Technique

i

The spray result depends heavily on the smoothness and cleanliness of the 

surface to be sprayed. Therefore the surface should be carefully prepared and 

kept free of dust.

• 

Cover all surfaces not to be sprayed. 

i

Important: Start at the edge of the area to be sprayed. Start the spray 

movement first of all, and then press the trigger. Avoid interruptions 

within the area to be sprayed.

• 

The spray movement should come from the arm, not just from the wrist. This ensures that 

a uniform distance is maintained between the spray gun and the spray surface during 

the spray operation. Select a distance of 5 - 15 cm, depending on the desired spray jet 

width. When you are using interior wall paint, the distance should be about 20-30 cm 

(approx. one stirring rod in length).

Fig. 15 A/ 15 B: 

CORRECT

 Even distance to the object.

Fig. 15 B:

INCORRECT 

An uneven distance will result in uneven paint 

application.

i

"Cross spray" when using paint with a poor covering capacity or if the 

surface is highly absorbent (Fig. 16).

i

Interior wall paint in strong colour shades should be applied at least twice 

(allow first paint coat to dry first). This will ensure good coverage.

Taking Out of Operation and Cleaning

Proper cleaning is the prerequisite for problem-free operation of the paint application 

device. No warranty claims are accepted in case of improper or no cleaning. When 

processing 2-component varnishes, clean the device immediately.

1)   Turn the machine off. Vent the container in case of longer breaks and after the work 

has been terminated. This can be done by briefly turning open and then closing the
