manual abstract
The paint will dry inside and quickly clog the air cap. EXTERNAL MIX – Process where the air and paint are mixed just after leaving the nozzle. This type of mix should be used for fast drying paints and when a high quality finish is needed. BLEEDER/NON-BLEEDER – Indicates whether air flows through the gun continuously or as the trigger is pulled. BLEEDER – In this mode, air passes continuously through the gun whether spraying or not. This mode is generally used when the air is supplied by a continuously running compressor that does not have a tank. NON-BLEEDER – In this mode, air flows only when the trigger is pulled. This type of operation is used with a compressor equipped with a tank or with a large factory air system. VISCOSITY – A measurement of the resistance of the flow of a liquid. ATOMIZATION - Conversion of liquid to spray droplets (mist). PATTERN CONTROL KNOB – Used to form the proper pattern (size and shape) of paint as it is sprayed from the gun to the work piece. REMINDER: Keep your dated proof of purchase for warranty purposes! Attach © 2007 IN285400AV 8/07 Operating Instructions and Parts Manual Detail Spray Gun Spray Gun Terms (Cont.) FLUID CONTROL KNOB – Used to control the amount of paint being mixed with air. PAINT TANK – An auxiliary pressurized paint reservoir that allows continuous spraying of large amounts of paint without stopping for refills as with a canister. It also allows using the spray gun at any angle or orientation. General Safety Information CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 You can create dust when you cut, sand, drill or grind materials such as wood, paint, metal, concrete, cement, or other masonry. This dust often contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Wear protective gear. This product or its power cord may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION 1. Read all manuals included with this product carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the MANUEL proper use of the equipment. 2. Follow all local electrical and safety codes as well as in the United States, the National Electrical Codes (NEC) and Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). Use a face mask/respirator and protective clothing when spraying. Always spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire hazards. Refer to Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) of spray material for details. Never spray closer than 25 feet to the compressor! If possible, locate compressor in separate room. Never spray into the compressor, compressor controls or the motor. 3. Do not smoke or eat when spraying paint, insecticides, or other flammable substances. Do not spray flammable materials in vicinity of open flame or near ignition sources. Motors, electrical equipment and controls can cause electrical arcs that will ignite a flammable gas or vapor. Never store flammable liquids or gases in the vicinity of the compressor. 4. When spraying and cleaning, always follow the instructions and safety precautions provided by the material manufacturer (Refer to MSDS). Do not spray acids, corrosive materials, toxic chemicals, fertilizers or pesticides. Using these materials could result in death or serious injury. 5. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children or pets in the work area. Never aim or spray at yourself or anyone else or serious injury could occur. 6. Always work in a clean environment. To avoid injury and damage to the workpiece, do not aim the spray gun at any dust or debris. Do not use pressure that exceeds the operating pressure of any of the parts (hoses, fittings, etc.) in the painting system. Keep hose away from sharp objects. Bursting air hoses may cause injury. Examine air hoses regularly and replace if damaged. 7. Always use a pressure regulator on the air supply to the spray gun. 2 HDS550 Failure to install appropriate water/oil removal equipment may result in damage to machinery or workpiece. Preparation 1. Thoroughly mix the paint in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, adding thinner where necessary. Most materials will spray readily if thinned properly. Strain material through cheese cloth or a paint strainer. Test the consistency of the material by making a few strokes on a cardboard target. If material still appears too thick, add a small amount of thinner. THIN WITH CARE!! 2. Fill the canister about 3/4 full and start the air compressor. 3. Set up a piece of cardboard or other scrap material to use as a target and adjust for best spray pattern. Air Cap Horizontal Fan Vertical Fan Lock Ring Figure 1 FAN DIRECTION The direction of the fan (horizontal or vertical) can be changed by loosening the lock ring and turning the air cap 90 degrees (See Figure 1). Hand tighten lock ring after adjustment. PATTERN ADJUSTMENT 1. Adjust air pressure to the spray gun according to the recommendations supplied with the spray material. This ...
