1.Air leak in paint intake assembly. (check all fittings and hose clamps in intake assembly for tightness).

2.Air leak in paint intake. (check for cracked or broken intake fittings. Swivel connector, (ref# 11), or elbow, (ref# 13), may be damaged due to over tightening. Look for small black hairline fractures. Replace damaged parts).

3.Partial blockage in paint intake hose, (ref# 7). (clean and remove any blockages from intake hose. Check to insure strainer bag is not clogging intake hose).

EXCESSIVE OVERSPRAY OR FOGGING

1.Pressure too high. (reduce pressure as required).

2.Material too thin. (follow material manufacturers recommendations re-thinning).

3.Tip too large. (reduce tip size).
