SET-UP
WARNING: Besure to use appropriate
protectivegear and unplug unit.
WARNING: Makesure area is well
ventilated and free of flammable vapors.
ALIGNINGTHE PICKUPTUBE -
(FIGURESB ANDB1)
The pickup tube can be aligned in the
direction that you will be doing the most
spraying to help minimize the amount of
times that you will have to refill the canister.
• Ifyo u are spraying at an upward angle or
straight on, position the pickup tube
(figureB)toward the back of the canister.
• Ifyou are spra ying at a downward angle,
position the pickup tube (figureB1)toward
the front of the canister.
This will ensure you spray as much material
as possible before you need to refill.
ATTACHINGTHEAIR HOSE- (FIGURESC
ANDC1)
• Insertone end of the air hose into the back
of the sprayer.A slight twisting action when
inserting the hose will help insure a snug fit.
• Insertthe oth er end of the air hose into the
back of the power unit.A slight twisting
action when inserting the hose will help
insure a snug fit.
LIQUIDMATERIAL PREPARATION-
(FIGURESD, D1AND D2)
TIP:Make sure the type of material you
use can be cleaned witheither mineral
spirits or paintthinner (for oil-based
paints)or a warm water and soap solution
(for water solublepaints like latex). Use
dropcloths during pouring, mixing, and
viscosity testing of materials to be
sprayed to protect your floors and
anythingelse in the spraying area that
youwish to re main untouched.
The liquid being sprayed may need to be
thinned (diluted) before starting. When
thinning, use the proper liquid thinner
recommended on the container by the
material manufacturer.
WARNING: Donot use materials with
a flashpoint higher than 60°C (140°F) .
A2- 3/4quart mixing bucket is provided
to use when transferring spray material from the original container into the bucket for thinning and measuring
purposes (figureD).
Aviscosity test cup is provided to determine the “runout time” of the material being used.
• Before measuring for the proper viscosity,stir the material throughly.
• Dip the viscosity cup into the material being sprayed and fill the cup completely.
• Withthe cup he ld over the material container,measure the amount of time it takes for the stream of material flowing
out to “break” or stop being a constant stream out of the bottom of the cup (2 minutes or less) (figureD1).This is the
“runout time” Refer to the thinning tablefor information on the thinning requiredfor different materials.
