Setup and Assembly
Any missing parts or damage should be reported
immediately to your JET
®
distributor. Do not use a
damaged tool. Read this instruction manual
thoroughly for operation, maintenance and safety
instructions.
Box contents:
1 Spray gun
1 Gravity feed cup, 600cc
1 Nylon strainer
1 Spanner
1 Bristle brush
1 Operation and parts manual
1 Warranty card
Operation
1. Blow out air line to remove any dirt or
moisture, then connect air supply hose to
tool’s air inlet.
IMPORTANT: Connecting a quick-change
coupling directly to the tool is not
recommended, as vibration may cause the
connection to fail. Instead, add a leader hose
and install any quick-change couplings
farther down the line.
2. Unscrew cup lid and add fluid to be sprayed.
(Follow paint manufacturer’s instructions for
proper mixing.)
3. Set regulator to desired air pressure. (Refer
to gun’s rated maximum pressure).
4. Loosen air cap knurled ring and rotate air cap
horns to effect horizontal or vertical spray.
Retighten air cap.
Horizontal horns (as shown in Figure 1) will
produce vertical pattern for side-to-side
motion. Vertical horns produce horizontal
pattern used for top-to-bottom motion.
5. Squeezing trigger part way opens air valve.
Squeezing further retracts fluid needle, thus
releasing fluid where it is atomized by the air
flowing through air cap.
6. Rotate fluid control knob clockwise to
decrease flow of material, counterclockwise
to increase.
7. Rotate fan control knob counterclockwise for
full, flat spray pattern; clockwise for narrower
pattern.
NOTE: To reduce overspray and obtain maximum
efficiency, always spray with the lowest possible
air pressure/fluid flow combination.
Figure 1
Spray gun movement
The gun should be held perpendicular to surface
being covered, and moved parallel with it at a
consistent pace. See Figure 2. The stroke should
be started before the trigger is pulled, and the
trigger released before the stroke is ended.
Distance between gun and surface should be 6 to
12 inches depending upon material and atomizing
pressure.
Deposited material should be even and wet. Lap
each stroke over the preceding stroke from 1/3 to
1/2, to obtain a uniform finish.
