Preparation
1.
Mix/thin the paint according to the instructions of the manufacturer before pouring it into
the tank and strain the paint when it is in the tank. Do this to remove undissolparticles and
skins, these can clog the gun.
Tip: You can also put the entire can of paint in the tank if this fits instead of pouring it.
2.
Place the lid on the tank and then tighten the clamps.
3.
Make sure the work area is clean and well-lit, in addition, it should not be accessible to
children or animals, these may cause distraction.
4.
Place the compressed air supply pipe down so that not about can stumble and that these are
not damaged. This should also be long enough so that one the paint tank can move freely
during the painting.
5.
Before painting make sure the workpiece is free from dust, oil and moisture, pollution could
cause the paint does not/not stick to the workpiece.
Operation
1.
First of all stir the paint well before one puts it in the tank and strain the paint when pouring
in the tank. Do this to remove suspended particles and skins, these can clog the gun.
2.
The can of paint can also be placed into the tank as this fits instead of pouring it.
3.
Place the lid on the tank and then tighten the clamps.
4.
Turn the T-handle on the pressure regulator for the tank counterclockwise to close and set
the pressure regulator on the compressor in on the desired pressure for the spray gun.
5.
Now set the pressure regulator for the tank to the required pressure in the tank. The greater
the distance in height of the spray gun to the tank is, the higher the pressure in the tank
should be. In general, the pressure in the tank between the 1.7 and 2.1 bar. When the
pressure in the tank high, simply to turn the T-handle of the pressure regulator to the desired
pressure, it is not necessary to press the gun trigger to release excess pressure.
Warning! The pressure in the tank should never be set higher than 5.5 bar!
Cleaning the tools
WARNING! Before one is going to start cleaning the tank, disconnect the air supply. Then release
the pressure of the tank by pulling on the ring of the pressure safety valve before the loosening the
clamps and removing the lid.
PLEASE NOTE! It is very important that the tank, fluid hose and the spray gun as fast as spraying is
finished, be cleaned.
1.
Turn OFF the main air supply to the Paint Tank.
2.
Relieve all pressure from the Paint Tank by turning the regulator T-handle counterclockwise
and then pull the ring on the safety valve until the pressure bleeds down.
3.
Loosen the Lid Screws and tip the lid clamps back.
4.
Tip the Paint Tank lid to one side.
5.
Loosen the spray gun air cap retaining ring about three turns.
6.
Turn on the air supply.
7.
Cup a cloth over the spray gun air cap and pull the trigger. This forces the paint back through
the hose and into the Paint Tank.
