Work Piece and Work Area Set Up

1.Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit. The work area must not allow access by children or pets to prevent injury and distraction.

2.Route the Power Cord (34) along a safe route to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the Power Cord to pos- sible damage. The Power Cord must reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.

3.Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working.

4.There must not be hazardous ob- jects, such as utility lines or foreign objects, nearby that will present a hazard while working.

5.Cover all furniture, decorations, floors, walls, etc. not intended to be painted.

6.Only paint in well ventilated dust free area.

Tool Set Up

1.Mix and thin the paint or other fluid thoroughly according to the manufac- turer’s directions.

2.Carefully strain the paint/fluid through a paint strainer or piece of cheese cloth.

3.Fill the Cup (27) to approximately 3/4 full. Then attach the Cup to the Spray Gun. (See Figure A, on page 8.)

4.Plug the Power Cord (34) into the

nearest 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet. Then turn the Power Switch

(33) to its “ON” position.

(See Figure A, on page 8.)

5.Adjust the air pressure during op- eration with the Trigger (6) and the Air Control Lever (13). Turn the Air Control Lever clockwise to provide less air to the Spray Gun. Turn the Air Control Lever counterclockwise to provide more air to the Spray Gun.

(See Figure A, on page 8.)

6.Set up a piece of scrap material to practice on. While practicing on the scrap material, check to see that the paint/fluid you are spraying has the appropriate consistency. If it appears too thick, add a very small amount of thinner (not included).

7.To change the direction of the fan from horizontal to vertical, loosen the Air Cap Screw (5) and turn the Air Nozzle (4) 90 degrees. After the ad- justment, tighten the Air Cap Screw.
