Dampening Wallpaper
To make it easier to remove old wallpaper, you can spray
warm water on the wallpaper (max. 55 °C). Use the grey
nozzle cap (11) to do so.
Work breaks and transport (see figure K–L)
A carrying handle (23) is fitted to the base unit to enable
easy transport of the fine-spray system.
Wheels are fitted to the bottom of the base unit (22). You
can pull the base unit behind you by the air hose (20) during
work.
The spray gun (1)can be put down on a flat work surface dur-
ing breaks. No spray material can leak out.
Always put the spray gun upright on a flat surface
u
when it is filled with spray material. Spray material can
leak out from a spray gun if it is lying down.
