Spraying

The Model H6331 spray gun set is designed to spray low to medium viscos- ity liquids, like lacquers, stains, primers, multi-component paints, acrylics, epoxies, etc. It is ideal for auto body touch-ups, woodworking projects, or projects with hard to reach areas.

To use your spray gun:

1.Read and follow the material man- ufacturer's instructions for spray- ing, mixing, safety, disposal, and any other instruction on the label or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

2.Ensure the reservoir is securely tight- ened and all other fittings are secure to avoid air leaks or material spills.

3.Set the inlet air pressure (the air com- ing to the spray gun) to the lowest pressure recommended in Machine Data on Page 7 or to the material manufacturer's recommendations,

then adjust higher as necessary.

4.Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical or horizontal. Refer to Atomizing Cap and Fan Adjustments on Page on Page 12 for further explanation.

5.Using a paint strainer, fill the res- ervoir with the liquid to be sprayed.

Note: Trial and error are necessary to achieve the results you want along with a fair amount of practice. Test your material flow and spray pattern on a piece of cardboard or some scrap of material similar to your project.
