Spray Tip Selection
Selecting Tip Size
Spray tips come in a variety of hole sizes for spraying a range of fluids. Your sprayer includes a tip for use in most paint spraying applications. Use the coatings table on page
13 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
NOTE:
For proper sprayer operation use only a tip from the same tip family that came with
Hints:
• 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.
• Use larger tip hole sizes with thicker coatings and smaller tip hole sizes with thinner coatings.
• Tips wear with use and need periodic replacement.
• Tip hole size controls flow rate - the amount of paint that comes out of the gun.
Reference
Fan Width
Fan width is the size of the spray pattern, which determines the area covered with each stroke.
Hints:
• Select a fan width best suited to the surface being sprayed.
• Wider fans allow provide better coverage on broad, open surfaces.
• Narrower fans provide better control on small, confined surfaces.
Understanding Tip Number
The last three digits of tip part number (i.e.: xxx412) contains information about hole size and fan width on surface when gun is held 12 in. (30.5 cm) from surface being sprayed.
412 tip has 8-10 in.
(20-25 cm) fan width.
412 tip has a
0.012 in. hole size.
ti29772a
First digit when doubled = approximate fan width.
Last two digits = tip hole size in thousands of an inch.
For an 8 to 10 in. (203 to 254 mm) fan width and 0.010
(0.25 mm) hole size, order Part No. … 410.

Instructions (Oil-Based materials)
• To avoid fluid splashing back on your skin or into your eyes, always aim gun at inside wall of pail.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking. A static spark can cause fumes to ignite or explode.
A good ground provides an escape wire for the electric current.
Always use a metal pail for oil-based materials requiring flushing with compatible oil-based flushing solvents when sprayer is flushed or pressure is relieved.
