manual abstract
2. Dip the Viscosity Cup into the material, and time how long it takes for the material to completely run out of the cup (See FIGURE 1). The longer it takes, the higher the viscosity. 3. In general, most materials work adequately if the viscosity is FIGURE 1 between 15 and 30 seconds. 4. If the viscosity is too high, you will have to thin the material to use it. Follow the material manufacturer’s instructions for thinning each material. 5. If you thinned materials, retest the viscosity. Note: When using a material for the first time, it is recommended that you experiment on newspaper attached to a vertical surface, testing your spray patterns. Pump Locknut Round Jet Tip Pump Housing Container Regulator Knob Trigger Power Cord SKU 47274 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 5 Operation (continued) Warning!! Makes sure the Spray Gun is unplugged from the power source and your finger is off of the Trigger (#19) when adjusting or changing Nozzle Tips (#11). 6. Attach the appropriate Nozzle Tip (11). The Spray Gun comes with: (2) @ .032” -For latex stain and oil based paints, heavy bodies (1) @ .021” -For light bodies, stains, sealers, and water-proofers (1) @ .021” - (Extended Tip) For lighter bodies, stains, sealers, and water-proofers 7. To attach a new Nozzle Tip (11), remove the Locknut (12) and pull FIGURE 2 out the existing Nozzle Tip (11). Replace with the appropriate tip and reinsert the Locknut (12). Note: When inserting a Nozzle Tip (11), if you turn it in a clockwise position, the spray pattern will be wide with fine atomization. If you turn it in a counterclockwise direction, the pattern will narrow and result in less atomization. Note: With thin sealers or stains, fogging or dripping may occur when the tip is adjusted clockwise. To prevent fogging or dripping, slightly rotate the nozzle counterclockwise. Small adjustments make a huge difference in spray patterns. Note: Adjusting the nozzle combined with the Regulator (25) knob, will give you the proper pattern for all of your applications. 8. Unscrew the Container (17) counterclockwise to remove. 9. Pour the appropriate material (33 ounce maximum) in. 10. Make sure the Suction Tube (16) with the Filter (28) on the end of the tube, is firmly inserted all the way into the Lid / Pump Housing (18) before installing the Container (17). 11. Screw the Container (17) on clockwise. 12. Rotating the Regulator (25) knob clockwise reduces the output. Rotating the Regulator (25) knob counterclockwise increases the output. Rotate the knob to its maximum setting Proper Spraying Technique (counterclockwise) to start spraying. Test on a piece of scrap, or newspaper taped to the wall. Adjust the Regulator (25) knob as needed. If you do not achieve desired results, For best results, keep the sprayer parallel to the painting surface as shown in FIGURE 3. you may have to return to step 7 and the notes above to readjust the Nozzle Tip (11). Un-parallel spraying, as in FIGURE 4, will result in uneven paint application. Note: Never tilt the Spray Gun more than 45 degrees for spraying ceilings or floors. Use the Angled Nozzle Adapter provided with this set. FIGURE 3 FIGURE 4 Note: It takes a period of time for the Spray Gun to accumulate suction pressure; allow the unit time for the suction pressure to build up before expecting optimum Spray Gun performance.

FIGURE 5 From a distance of 12 inches, keep your arm extended with your elbow locked. This will insure you maintain the correct distance more accurately. Squeeze the Trigger (#19) and move the Spray Gun evenly and steadily. Use an established pattern for each pass as shown in FIGURE 5. Breaking up your pass will result in irregular surface patterns. At the end of each pass, release the Trigger (#19) for a second to prepare for the next pass. Tips 1. Apply a thin coat on each pass so that the paint doesn’t run. Add additional coats if needed. 2. Always test the sprayer on scrap before using, or if you let it sit a while between coats. 3. When working on vertical surfaces, first apply a fine mist from a greater distance, and then move closer to finish. 4. Make sure you mask any area not to be sprayed. 5. Note: Before each use, make sure the Suction Tube (#16) is firmly inserted all the way into the Lid/Pump Housing (#18) before installing the Container (#17). Maintenance/Cleaning Warning!! Before performing any maintenance, the Spray Gun should be unplugged and you should be wearing your ANSI approved respirator and safety goggles or full face shield. 1. Clean your sprayer immediately after each use. 2. Pour the remaining material from the Container (#17) back into the material can. 3. Use an approved thinner or cleaner for the material used. Read and follow all of the material manufacturer’s instructions regarding cleaners or thinners. 4. Pour a few ounces of t...
