NOTE
►
Do not exceed the maximal viscosity of the
appliance. The spray material must not be
too thick. Otherwise, the appliance might
clog.
► Ensure that the spray material and thinning
agent are compatible. Using an unsuitable
thinning agent may cause clots that clog the
appliance. Never mix synthetic resin varnish-
es with cellulose thinners.
► To find out which thinning agent is suitable
for your spray material (water, paint thinner),
refer to the manufacturer's notes provided
with the spray material.
► Granular products and products containing
solids must not be sprayed. Their abrasive
effect will shorten the service life of the pump
and valve.
Preparing the surface
♦ Carefully cover a large area around the spray
surface. Any surface that is not masked could
become contaminated.
♦ Ensure that the surface is clean, dry and free of
grease.
♦ Polished surfaces should be lightly sanded and
the sanding dust removed.
Setting up

Choosing/changing the nozzle
Nozzle Use
1.8 mm nozzle
all types of paints and
lacquers
2.6 mm nozzle
viscous spray material
♦ Undo the union nut completely and remove it
from the spray unit .
♦ Fit the desired nozzle onto the nozzle head .
♦ Screw the union nut back onto the spray
unit .
Adding spray material
♦ Unscrew the paint cup from the spray
unit
.
♦ To work on a horizontal object, place the riser
pipe
in front, facing the nozzle head . To
work overhead, place the riser pipe
in the
back, facing the motor unit .
♦ Fill the paint cup with the spray material and
screw it firmly onto the spray unit .
Switching the appliance on/off
Working methods:
♦ Hold the spray gun at a constant distance
from the object. The ideal spraying distance is
approx. 15 cm.
♦ Work out the best settings by carrying out a test.
♦ Do not switch the appliance on/off over the
spray surface. Rather, start/end the spraying
process approx. 10 cm from the spray surface.
