Setup

Use only water-based or oil-based (mineral spirit-type) materials with flash point greater than 100° F (38° C). Do not use materials which state “FLAMMABLE” on the packaging. For more informa- tion about your material, request MSDS from distribu- tor or retailer.

Spraying certain materials may cause static build-up in the sprayer that can result in static shock to the user. If this occurs, first ensure the mate- rial has a flash point greater than 100° F (38° C) and does not state that it is FLAMMABLE anywhere on the package. If still feeling a static shock, the material likely contains a non-mineral spirits fluid such as, but not lim- ited to, xylene, toluene, or naphtha, which can build up static. Switch to an alternative material.

Use oil-based material outdoors or in a well-ventilated indoor area with a flow of fresh air.

Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area.

NOTICE

Your sprayer is NOT compatible with harsh cleaners such as chlorine bleach. Using these cleaners will cause damage to the sprayer.

Installing Suction Tube

Aim the inlet of the suction tube at the front of the material cup (towards Spray Tip/Guard Assembly) during installa- tion.

Setup

Spraying Stains or Clear Coats (Fine-Finish Optimizer)

The Fine-Finish Optimizer should be installed and used when spraying thin material such as stain or clear coats. The Fine-Finish Optimizer restricts the material flow resulting in a finer quality finish.

NOTICE

Failure to install the Fine-Finish Optimizer when spraying thin materials will cause the spray pattern to pulsate.

Installation
