Operation

HVLP Operation

NOTE: For HVLP operation, the atomization air must not exceed 10 psi. Use HVLP Verification Kit 24C788 to ver- ify air psi.

NOTE: There is no fan adjustment when using RAC tips and caps.

Fluid Application

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. 15.

FIG. 15

1.To achieve the best results when applying fluid, keep the gun perpendicular to the surface and main- tain a consistent distance of approximately 8 to 12 in. (200 to 300 mm) from the object being sprayed.

2.To obtain an even finish, use smooth, even strokes across the object being sprayed with 50% overlap.

3.Paint using parallel strokes. This spray gun applies all coatings evenly without cross coating.
