| HELPFUL HINTS |
|
1) | Only apply one coat at a time. If more than one coat is required follow the paint manufacturer’s | |
| instructions for drying times. |
|
|
| |
2) | If spraying small objects keep the output setting low as this will avoid |
|
| excessive use of paint and will minimise overspray. |
|
3) | When spraying large areas or objects use a |
|
| either left to right then up and down or |
|
| momentarily stop spraying as you change direction. This will ensure |
|
| maximum coverage. (See Fig. 5) |
|
4) | Avoid stopping and starting when spraying as this can lead to too |
|
| much or not enough material on a surface. |
|
5) | To ensure edges are covered begin spraying just outside the area being |
|
| sprayed and do not stop until you have just passed the opposite edge. | Fig.5 |

SPRAY NOZZLE SELECTION
The Earlex Outdoor Paint Sprayer is supplied with 0.6mm and 1.0mm nozzles.
1)0.6mm - This size works best for stains and
2)1.0mm - This nozzle is suitable for spraying woodcare treatments.
If when spraying you find that the spray pattern is small and splattery, and adjusting the output control knob does not solve the problem, try a different nozzle size before further thinning the material.
