SPRAYING

1. Place the siphon tube into a container of paint.
2. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
3. Set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure
control knob to the "MIN" setting.
4. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME position.
5. Turn on the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position.
6. Allow the sprayer to run until paint is coming through the
return hose into the metal waste container.
7. Turn off the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position.
8. Remove the return hose from the waste container and
place it in its operating position above the container of
paint.
9. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to the SPRAY position.
10. Turn on the sprayer.
11. Unlock the gun by pushing the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
Ground the gun by holding it against the edge of
the metal container while flushing. Failure to do
so may lead to a static electric discharge, which
may cause a fire.
12. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until all
air and solvent is flushed from the spray hose and paint is
flowing freely from the gun.
13. Lock the gun by pushing the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
14. Turn off the sprayer.
15. Attach tip guard and tip to the gun as instructed by the tip
guard or tip manuals.
POSSIBLE INJECTION HAZARD. Do not spray
without the tip guard in place. Never trigger the
gun unless the tip is in either the spray or the
unclog position. Always engage the gun trigger
lock before removing, replacing or cleaning tip.
16. Turn on the sprayer.
17. Increase the pressure by turning the pressure control knob
slowly clockwise and test the spray pattern on a piece of
cardboard. Adjust the pressure control knob until the
spray from the gun is completely atomized. Try to keep the
pressure control knob at the lowest setting that maintains
good atomization.
Turning the pressure up higher than needed to
i
atomize the paint will cause premature tip wear
and additional overspray.
