• Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help avoid inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has | |
begun and release trigger before stopping the pass. |
|
• Avoid spraying too heavily in any one area. Several lighter coats are better than one heavy coat which can lead to | |
running and dripping. Remember that the flow control knob regulates the amount of liquid that can be sprayed. Turning | |
the flow knob counterclockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning the knob clockwise decreases the flow of liquid. If | |
runs or drips do occur, have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth them out. | |
WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD. When spraying overhead, never tip the sprayer more than | |
45 degrees. The material being sprayed could leak into the motor housing. | |
TIP: If the atomizer valve is not seated prop- |
|
erly, spray material will leak from behind the |
|
spray nozzle. If |
|
material is leaking, turn off and unplug |
|
sprayer from power source immediately. |
|
Follow these steps to correct the problem: |
|
• Check that the sprayer is unplugged from the |
|
power source. Remove the spray nozzle by |
|
turning counterclockwise (figure J). For the fan |
|
nozzle, remember to push and turn counter- |
|
clockwise to remove. |
|
• Remove the atomizer and check to see if it |
|
needs to be cleaned or replaced. Also check |
|
inside the pump housing for any debris or |
|
obstruction and clean if necessary (figure J1). | 2 |
• Replace the atomizer valve making sure it | |
seats properly (figure J2). | |
• Thread the spray nozzle back onto the | |
sprayer by turning clockwise |
|
(figure J3). |
