IMPORTANT: The Spray Gun must be cleaned immediately after use. Improper cleaning is a common reason for the Spray Gun not to work.

Fan Direction and Pattern Adjustment (continued)

3.Turn the Fluid Control Knob (15) clockwise until it is fully closed. See FIGURE 1 on page 6.

4.After setting up a piece of scrap material, squeeze the Trigger (32) in short bursts while turning the Fluid Control Knob (15) counterclockwise and observe the spray patterns until you see the pattern you want. Also, look at the pattern for consistency. Too much air may cause the spray to come out too fine. Reduce the air pressure or allow more material to come out by opening the Fluid Control Knob (15). If the spray appears too thick (you see globs of paint), close down the Fluid Control Knob (15) slowly, checking the mixture after each adjustment.

See FIGURE 5 below.
