Hitachi 308640 manual Apply the Fluid

Operation

Apply the Fluid

When applying the fluid, keep the gun a consistent distance, about 8 to 12 inches (200 to 300 mm) from the surface of the object being sprayed. Always hold the gun at a right angle from the surface. Do not make an arc with the gun as it causes an uneven coat of fluid. See Fig. 6.

CAUTION

Openings in the tip guard reduce paint buildup on the guard while spraying. Damage to the sharp edges of the openings will cause paint to collect at that area.

To avoid damage, never hang the gun by the tip guard.
