For a narrower pattern, supply air to the gun fan air inlet (or open the fan adjustment valve on manifold 288223). The tip size is the primary controller of the pattern size. Use the fan air only as needed to slightly adjust the pat- tern size.

Operation

To achieve best results when applying fluid:

•Keep gun perpendicular and 8 to 10 inches (200 to 250mm) from object being sprayed.

•Use smooth, parallel strokes across surface to be sprayed with 50% overlap. See FIG. 12.

When triggered, the gun begins emitting air before the

 

fluid is discharged. When the trigger actuation air is

stopped, the fluid stops before the air flow stops. This

helps assure the spray is atomized and prevents fluid

 

buildup on the air cap and tip.

 

Adjust the system control device, if it is automatic, so the

 

gun starts spraying just before meeting the work piece

 

and stops as soon as the work piece has passed. Keep

 

the gun a consistent distance, 8 to 10 inches (200 to 250

 

mm), from the surface of the object being sprayed.
