manual abstract
An in-line shutoff ball valve is an important safety device because it controls the air supply even if the air hose is ruptured. The shutoff valve should be a ball valve because it can be closed quickly. Note: Do not use an automatic oiler system or add oil to airline. The oil will contaminate the material being propelled, ruining the final result. 2. Attach an air hose to the compressor’s air outlet. Connect the air hose to the air inlet of the tool. Other components, such as a coupler plug and quick coupler, will make operation more efficient, but are not required. WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Do not install a female quick coupler on the tool. Such a coupler contains an air valve that will allow the air tool to retain pressure and operate accidentally after the air supply is disconnected. Note: Air flow, and therefore tool performance, can be hindered by undersized air supply components. 3. The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working. 4. Close the in-line shutoff valve between the compressor and the tool. 5. Turn on the air compressor according to the manufacturer’s directions and allow it to build up pressure until it cycles off. 6. Adjust the air compressor’s output regulator so that the air output is enough to properly power the tool, but the output will not exceed the tool’s maximum air pressure at any time. Adjust the pressure gradually, while checking the air output gauge to set the right pressure range. 7. Inspect the air connections for leaks. Repair any leaks found. 8. If the tool will not be used at this time, turn off and detach the air supply and safely discharge any residual air pressure to prevent accidental operation. Note: Residual air pressure should not be present after the tool is disconnected from the air supply. However, it is a good safety measure to attempt to discharge the tool in a safe fashion after disconnecting to ensure that the tool is disconnected and unpowered.

Operating Instructions Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product. Inspect tool before use, looking for damaged, loose, and missing parts. If any problems are found, do not use tool until repaired. Workpiece and Work Area Set Up 1. Designate a work area that is clean and well.lit. The work area must not allow access by children or pets to prevent distraction and injury. 2. Route the air hose along a safe path to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the air hose to possible damage. The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working. 3. Before spraying, mask nearby objects not being sprayed and lay cloths (not included) on the floors.

Improper adjustment can result in tool failure or other serious hazards. CAUTION! Keep hands away from Trigger while making adjustments. Never allow the Spray Gun to lay on its side when the Cup is full of paint. 1. Thread the Cup to the top of the Gun Body and tighten until the Cup is securely in place. 2. Thread the Regulator (30) into the Air Connector (28). Note: This Spray Gun is meant for spraying oil.based paints. It is not recommended for regular wall paint or thin coatings of any type.
