OPERATION

DO NOT ATTEMPT

TO UNCLOG (BACK FLUSH) SPRAY GUN BY SQUEEZING TRIGGER WHILE HOLDING FINGER IN FRONT OF FLUID NOZZLE.

Pressure may vary according to

viscosity of material used. Maximum working pressure of gun is 60 psi. DO NOT EXCEED PRESSURE LIMIT OF GUN OR ANY OTHER COMPONENT IN SYSTEM!

Prior to daily operation, make

certain that all connections and fittings are secure. Check hose and all con- nections for a weak or worn condition that could render system unsafe. All replacement components such as hose or fittings must have a working pressure equal to or greater than system pressure.

Prior to shipment, this gun was treated with an anticorrosive agent. Before using this gun make sure that it is carefully flushed with thinner.

1.The position of the air cap (H) horns will determine the spray pattern. Loosen (G) air cap and rotate horns to achieve desired pattern. Tighten air cap.

2.Attach material cup to the gun. NOTE: The (F) material filter supplied is optional to protect against contaminants and small particles. See parts list for material filter orientation.

3.Attach air supply line to 1/4 NPS air inlet.

NEVER point spray gun at self or any other person. Accidental discharge of

material may result in serious injury.

4.Adjust air pressure at air compressor.

DO NOT exceed 60 psi.

5.Depress spray gun trigger fully to spray material. NOTE: Depressing trigger partially will cause only air to be released.

Adjust spray gun:

a.Amount of material released (density of “fan spray”) is controlled by (D) fluid control knob. Turn knob counterclockwise to increase, or clockwise to decrease, the fluid flow.

b.Width of “fan spray” is governed by (B) pattern adjustment knob. Turn knob counter- clockwise to increase, or clockwise to decrease, air flow.

c.Air quantity is controlled by (C) air-volume control knob. Turn knob counterclockwise to increase, or clockwise to decrease, the air flow.

NOTE: Care should be exercised when handling spray gun to avoid damage to the orifice of the air cap and tip of fluid nozzle. Damage to these parts results in irregular spray patterns.
