Mixing Material

NOTICE

Do not use any solvent-based materials. Use water-based materials only. Proper material mixture is essential. Pump will not operate if material is too thick.

NOTE: For best results, mix material in a separate container and pour it into hopper.

1.Slowly add one bag of texture to clean water as instructed on bag. For best results, do not use par- tial bags.

Mixing Material

3.After texture is thoroughly mixed, gently set ball end of Material Thickness gauge on surface of mixture.

NOTE: For accurate test, be sure gauge is com- pletely dry and clean before each use.

4.Observe ball on material. When material is thin enough to spray, ball will sink completely into mix- ture.

5.If ball does not sink completely into mixture within 10 seconds add more water, agitate again and repeat test.

NOTE: Thicker materials that do not pass Material Thickness Gauge test can still be used. Before spraying thicker materials, test pump performance first. If material is too thick, pump will perform poorly.
