common spraying applications. Use the following table to determine the range of recommended tip hole sizes for each
fluid type. If you need a tip other than the one supplied, see the Reversible Tip Selection Chart on page 14.

The tip included with your sprayer is one size smaller
than the maximum tip hole size the sprayer supports.
As you spray, the tip wears and enlarges. Starting
with a tip hole size smaller than the maximum will
allow you to spray within the rated flow capacity of
the sprayer while using the tip you selected.
D Maximum tip hole size that each MAGNUM sprayer
supports is as follows:
– XR5: New 0.015 in. (0.38 mm)
– XR7: New 0.017 in. (0.43 mm)
– XR9: New 0.019 in. (0.48 mm)
