Preparing the area

1.Mask all objects you do not want sprayed.

2.Lay the appropriate size Tack Cloth (16) on the floor, and attach Tack Cloths (16) to the surrounding walls.

Preparing and Operating the HVLP Gravity Spray Gun

Refer to page 5 and the Assembly Drawing on pages 10 and 11.

Note: We recommend you practice on scrap material to adjust and become familiar with the Gun.

1.Detach the Plastic Cup (2). Insert a Filter (14) into the bottom of the Plastic Cup (2) with the stem end pointing into the cup. This will prevent dirt and debris from entering the HVLP Gravity Feed Gun (1).

2.Mount the Plastic Cup (2) to the HVLP Gravity Feed Gun (1). Make sure that the Plastic Cup (2) is securely attached. Fill the cup with material that has already been checked for viscosity (see page 6). Close to Cup (2) tightly to avoid leakage.

3.Connect the air source hose to the Air Inlet (19a). Turn on your air compressor. Do not exceed the 50 PSI maximum.

4.Pull the Trigger (20a) slowly and move the Spray Gun in parallel strokes to the object being painted. Keep the distance from the object being painted at 4” to 12”. This may slightly differ depending on the flow adjustment and the material being sprayed.

5.Release the Trigger (20a) after each forward movement; pull the Trigger (20a) again on the return movement.

6.When using a vertical pattern, move the Spray Gun in a horizontal motion; with a horizontal pattern move the Spray Gun in a vertical motion. A round pattern requires a greater distance from the object being painted.

7.When finished, release the Trigger (20a) and disconnect from the air source. The Plastic Cup (2) and Spray Gun may still hold air pressure, fire the Spray Gun toward scrap material until all of the pressure is expended. Open the Cap on the Plastic Cup

(2) before removing the Lid.

Note: Gun adjustments on page 8.
