MATERIAL PREPARATION

i Material to be sprayed may need to be strained to remove any impurities in the paint which may enter and clog the system. Impurities in the paint will give poor performance and a poor finish.

SPRAYABLE MATERIALS (WATER AND OIL-BASED)

• Sealers

• Transparent stain

• Semi-Transparent stain

• Lacquer (thinning may be necessary)

• Urethanes

• Decorative paints (thinning may be necessary)

• Furniture paints (thinning may be necessary)

*THINNING THE MATERIAL

Before spraying, the material being used may need to be thinned. Never exceed the thinning advice given by the coating manufacturer.

If thinning is necessary, use the proper solvent as specified by the material manufacturer. i Only thin the material if absolutely necessary to improve spray performance.

Optimal spray performance should be acheived simply by adjusting the various controls on the unit.

Do not thin with materials that have a flashpoint below 100°F (38°C).

SPRAYER CONTROLS

MATERIAL FLOW CONTROL

i The material flow control will be factory-set at its lowest setting out of the box. Adjust as needed.

• Turn the knob in (clockwise) for less flow. Generally, low material flow is needed for spraying smaller surface areas, such as corners, lattice, or spindles.

• Turn the knob out (counterclockwise) for increased flow.

Generally, high material flow is needed for spraying large surface areas, such as benches and gates.

PATTERN ADJUSTMENT

i Adjust the spray pattern by turning the air cap ears. The air cap position will determine the movement direction of the spray gun.

1. Round pattern:

Use up and down, or side to side spraying motion, depending upon the object being sprayed.

2. Vertical pattern:

Use side-to-side motion during spraying.

3. Horizontal pattern:

Use up and down motion during spraying.

SPRAYING

i Frequently wipe the nozzle tip with a damp rag when spraying to remove dried material.

HOW TO SPRAY PROPERLY

• Turn the ON/OFF switch to ON (I) to turn on the turbine.

No material will spray until the trigger is activated.

• Position the spray gun perpendicular to the spray surface.

• Spray parallel to the surface with straight and full passes at a consistent speed as illustrated, right.

• Always apply a thin coat of material on the first pass and allow to dry before applying a second, slightly heavier coat.

• When spraying, always trigger the spray gun after the spray pass has begun and release the trigger before stopping the pass. Always keep the gun pointed squarely at the spray surface and overlap passes by 50% to obtain the most consistent and professional finish possible. i Frequently wipe the nozzle tip with a damp rag when spraying to remove dried material.

8

PRACTICE YOUR TECHNIQUE

Practice your technique (use provided poster).

• Get closer. The spray gun should be 6-8 inches away from the spray object.

• Full passes. Spray the material in straight and full passes, not short waves.

• Light coats. For a finer finish, coat lightly during first pass, then cover completely on second pass. . i i

DO NOT pull the trigger when the turbine is turned OFF. Spray material will leak from the nozzle.

If after following the guidelines on these two pages you are still not getting the spray performance you need, refer to the

‘Troubleshooting’ section on page 11.
