5. OPERATION

5.1.  Forbestresults,thegunshouldbeheldperpendiculartothesurfacebeingsprayedandmovedparalleltoit.Startthestrokebefore

 squeezingthetriggerandreleasethetriggerbeforenishingthestroke.Thiswillenableaccuratecontrolofthegunand 

 material(g.3B).

5.2.  Sprayfromadistanceofabout6to10inches(150to250mm)dependingonthematerialandtheatomizingpressure.Thematerial

 depositedshouldalwaysbeevenandwet.Eachstrokemustoverlaptheprecedingstroketoobtainauniformnish.Toreduce 

 over-sprayandobtainmaximume󰀩ciency,spraywiththelowestpossibleatomizingairpressure.

5.3.  Controllingthefansprayandtheuid.

 a) Usetheneedle(paint)adjustmentknob(g.4.2)toadjusttheamountofpaintow.

 b) Theatomizingairowiscontrolledbythecontrolknob(g.4.1).

 c) Thevolumeofairinputiscontrolledbytheadjustmentknob(g.4.3).

d) As width of spray is increased more material must pass through the gun to obtain the same coverage on the increased

area.

 e) Turntheairnozzle(g.4.4)toachieveahorizontalorverticalfanspray.Lockthenozzlewithretainingring(g.4.5).

  Thespraypatternofthegunisvariablefromroundtoatwithallpatternsinbetween.Innormaloperation,thewingson

  thenozzlearehorizontal(g.5).Thisprovidesaverticalfan-shapedpatternwhichgivesmaximum,uniformandeven 

  coveragewhenmovingthegunbackandforth,paralleltotheworksurface(g.6).

6. CLEANING

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THE SPRAY GUN IS CORRECTLY CLEANED AFTER

EACH USE.

Disconnect from the air supply before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.

6.1. CLEANING THE GUN

6.1.1. Flush the gun through with clean solvent.

6.1.2.  Useabristlebrushandsolventtowasho󰀨accumulatedpaint.

6.1.3. Cleantheairnozzleusingabrush.Blowcleanwithair.Handleallnozzlescarefullyanddonotmakeanyalterationsinthegun.

6.1.4. Wipe the outside of the gun with a dampened solvent rag.

6.1.5. If there is a need to probe the holes in the nozzles, ensure a tool that is softer than brass is utilised, under no circumstances use a

 metaltool,astheslightestamountofdamagewilladverselya󰀨ectthespraypattern.

6.1.6.  Adjusttheuidneedlevalvesothatwhenthegunistriggered,airowoccursbeforeuidow.

6.1.7. Takecarewhenre-assembling.Screwpartshandtighttoavoidcross-threading.Ifapartcannoteasilybeturnedbyhand,check

that it is the correct part, or unscrew it, realign and retry. DO NOTuseexcessiveforcewhenre-assembling.

6.1.8. Whenchangingthenozzlesize,ensurethecompletenozzlesetistted.Thisconsistsofaircap,uidnozzleandpaintneedle. 

 Inserttheuidnozzlebeforepaintneedle.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

 Afaultysprayisusuallycausedbyimpropercleaningordriedmaterialaroundtheuidnozzletiporintheairnozzle.Ifcleaningis

 required,removethesepartsandsoaktheminsolvent.Thiswillsoftenthedriedmaterialwhichcanthenberemovedwithabrushora

 cloth.Thesepartsarecarefullymachinedandanydamagetothemwillcauseafaultyspray.Ifeithertheairnozzleoruidnozzleare

damaged, they must be replaced before a perfect spray can be obtained.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION

Dried material in a side port restricts passage

ofair.Greaterowofairfromthecleanside

port forces a fan pattern in the direction of the

clogged side.

Dissolve material in the side ports with solvent,

thenblowthegunclean.Donotpokeintothe

nozzles with metal instruments.

Driedmaterialaroundtheoutsideoftheuid

nozzle tip restricts the passage of atomizing

air at one point through the centre opening of

the air nozzle and results in the pattern shown.

This pattern can also be caused by a loose air

nozzle.

Removetheairnozzleandwipeo󰀨uidtip

using a rag dampened with solvent. Tighten the

air nozzle.

Material too thin or atomization air pressure too

high.

Regulate material viscosity or reduce air

pressure.

Paintspray‘utters’

Not enough paint in bottle.

Nozzleset/seatingdirty,damagedorloosely

installed.

Rellbottle.Removetheuidnozzle,cleanthe

backofthenozzleandthenozzleseatusinga

clothdampenedwiththinner.Retthenozzle

and secure it tightly against the body.

If necessary replace nozzle set.

Materialbubblesor“boils”in

paint cup.

Atomisedairowingthroughthepaintchannel

tothebottle.Thepaintnozzleisnotsu󰀩ciently

tight.

Air nozzle is not completely screwed on.

Tighten, clean or replace parts accordingly.
