CAUTION
Be sure that the paint hose is free of kinks and clear of
objects with sharp cutting edges.
1) Switch the pump ON and
turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob
to SPRAY.
2) When the motor shuts off,
unlock the spray gun and
spray a test area to check
the spray pattern.
When enough pressure has
built up in the hose, the motor
will shut off automatically.
The motor will cycle on and
off automatically as it needs
pressure.
Good spray pattern
Bad spray pattern (tailing)
If your pattern is tailing, your spray tip might have an
obstruction, your spray gun filter might be clogged or
your spray tip might be worn or color is diluted too few.
Refer to Spraying Troubleshooting on the next page.
Spraying technique
The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the
entire surface. This is done by using even strokes. Follow
the TIPS, below.
TIP: Keep your arm moving at a constant speed and
keep the spray gun at a constant distance from
the surface. The best spraying distance is 25 to
30 cm between the spray tip and the surface.
Even coat throughout
Keep stroke smooth and at an even speed.

Right way
TIP: Keep the spray gun at right angles to the
surface. This means moving your entire arm
back and forth rather than just flexing your
wrist.

Do not flex wrist while spraying.
TIP: The spray gun should be triggered by turning
it on and off with each stroke. Do not trigger
the gun during the middle of a stroke. This
will result in an uneven spray and splotchy
coverage.
Proper way to trigger the spray gun
Keep stroke
even
Start stroke Pull trigger Keep steady
ADDITIONAL TIPS
Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will ensure an
even coating.
When you stop painting, follow PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE and unplug electrical cord.
Keep the hopper lid placed on the hopper during
spraying.
This will prevent debris from falling into your spray
material.
