Striping Operation

1. Choose handle location

The choices are, installing the handle opposite of the single wheel assembly (standard set up) or placing the handle directly over the single wheel assembly. The handle location is really a matter of personal preference, however having the handle away from the single wheel assembly allows for easier loading/unloading from a van.

2. Cable Tension Adjustment

Once the handle and gun arm assemblies are set up to the preferred positions, pressurize the unit and trigger each gun to ensure that they activate and release correctly. If not, adjust the cable tension as follows:

a.Locate the adjustment knobs on the base of the gun trigger, where the cable connects to the gun trigger assembly.

b.Loose the locking nut & move the adjusting screw until the slack has been removed from the cable.

c.Tighten locking nut and retest gun triggers for proper function.

Note: There is an additional cable adjustment where the cable

attaches to the gun holder assembly. Use only if the gun

trigger adjustment is insufficient.

5.Miscellaneous Operations

CURBS: To paint at a 90 degree angle to spray the sides of curbs install a part # 032-028 swivel between gun head and tip guard and aim guard sideways towards the curb.

WIDE STRIPES: Install wider fan striping tips and raise the gun height to achieve the desired width line.

STENCILS: Install standard spray tip on the outer gun. Rotate gun to remove from the gun holder and use the gun to spray within your stencils. Use of an extension pole will make this job a lot easier on the operators back and is highly reccomended.

STANDARD PAINTING: Install the appropriate size and type of paint spraying tip (standard paint spray, “W” wide pattern, or “Fine Finish”). Remove gun and spray just as you do for stencils. Additional paint hose may be required depending on the distance between the job and the equipment.
