Connect the Air Line
Installation
Connect the Fluid Line
1. Install an air line filter (A) to ensure a clean, dry air supply to the gun. Dirt and moisture in the line can ruin the appearance of your finished piece. See
Fig. 1.
2. Install an air pressure regulator (L) on the gun air supply line to control the air pressure to the gun.
3. Install an air pressure regulator (D) on the pump air supply line to control air pressure to the pump.
4. Install a bleed-type air shutoff valve (C) on the main air line and on the pump air line, downstream of the pump air regulator, to shut off air to the pump. Install an additional bleed-type valve on each pump air supply line to relieve air trapped between this valve and the pump after the air regulator is shut off.
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of property damage or serious injury, including fluid injection, which could be caused by component rupture or unrelieved fluid pressure,
A fluid drain valve(s) (E) is required in your system to assist in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun; triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient.
A fluid pressure regulator (Q) must be installed in the system if the pump’s maximum working pressure exceeds the gun’s maximum fluid working pressure of 4000 psi (280 bar).
WARNING
The bleed-type air shutoff valve is required in your system to relieve air trapped between this valve and the pump after the air regulator is closed.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury.
NOTE: The gun air inlet has a 1/4–18 npsm (R1/4–19) compound male thread that is compatible with NPSM and BSP female swivel connectors.
5. Install an air shutoff valve (X) on each gun air supply line, downstream of the gun air regulator, to shut off air to the gun(s).
6. Connect the air hose (K) from the air supply to the gun air inlet.
1. Install a fluid filter (G) and drain valve(s) (E) close to the pump’s fluid outlet. The drain valve assists in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose, and gun. See Fig. 1.
2. Install a fluid pressure regulator (Q) to control fluid pressure to the gun.
NOTE: Some applications require fine-tuned control of fluid pressure. You can control fluid pressure more accurately with a fluid pressure regulator than by regulating the air pressure to the pump.
3. Install a fluid shutoff valve (F) to shut off the fluid supply to the gun.
NOTE: The gun fluid fitting (W) has a 1/4–18 npsm
(R1/4–19) compound male thread that is compatible with NPSM and BSP female connectors.
4. Install an in-line fluid filter (N) on the gun fluid fitting (W) to avoid clogging the spray tip with particles from the fluid.
5. Connect the grounded fluid hose (H) to the gun fluid fitting (W) or optional in-line filter (N).
6. Install an in-line fluid filter (N) on the gun fluid fitting (W) to avoid clogging the spray tip with particles from the fluid.

Ground the System
Installation
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Improper grounding could cause static sparking, which could cause a fire or explosion. To reduce the risk of property damage or serious injury, follow the grounding instructions below.
3.
Air , fluid, and hydraulic hoses connected to the pump : Use only grounded hoses with a maximum of 500 feet (150 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check the electrical resistance of your air and fluid hoses at least once a week. If the resistance exceeds the recommended limits, replace the hose immediately.
4.
Spray gun: Ground the gun by connecting it to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
5.
Fluid supply container: Ground it according to local code.
The following grounding instructions are minimum requirements for a system. Your system may include other equipment or objects which must be grounded.
Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equipment. Your system must be connected to a true earth ground.
6.
Object being sprayed: Ground it according to local code.
1.
Pump: Ground the pump by connecting a ground wire and clamp between the fluid supply and a true earth ground as instructed in your separate pump instruction manual.
7.
All solvent pails used when flushing: Ground them according to local code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.
2.
Air compressors and hydraulic power supplies: Ground them according to the manufacturer recommendations.
8.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure: Always hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.

Pressure Relief Procedure
WARNING
Operation
INJECTION HAZARD
Remember, this is not an air spray gun.
For your safety be sure to read and follow the Warnings on pages 2 and 3 and throughout the text of this instruction manual.
5. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal waste container and trigger the gun to relieve the fluid pressure.
6. Lock the gun trigger safety again.
7. Open the pump drain valve (required in the system) to help relieve fluid pressure in the displacement pump. In addition, open the drain valve connected to the fluid pressure gauge (in a system with fluid regulation) to help relieve fluid pressure in the hose and gun. Triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient. Have a container ready to catch the drainage.
8. Leave the drain valve(s) open until you are ready to spray again.
9. If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely clogged or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the steps above , very slowly loosen the hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen the coupling completely. Now clear the tip or hose obstruction.
INJECTION HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually relieved to prevent the system from starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you: are instructed to relieve the pressure, stop spraying, check or service any of the system equipment, or install or clean the spray tip.

How the Air-Assisted Airless
Spray Gun Operates
Operation
The air-assisted airless spray gun combines airless and air spraying concepts. The spray tip shapes the fluid into a fan pattern, as does a conventional airless spray tip. Air from the air cap further atomizes the fluid and completes the atomization of the paint tails into the pattern to produce a more uniform pattern. The pattern adjustment valve controls the width of the pattern.
Note that the air-assisted airless spray gun differs from an air spray gun in that increasing the pattern air reduces the pattern width. To increase the pattern width, less pattern air or a larger size tip must be used.
Select a Spray Tip and Air Cap
The fluid output and pattern width depend on the size of the spray tip, the fluid viscosity, and the fluid pressure. Use the Spray Tip and Air Cap Selection
Charts , on page 18, as a guide for selecting an appropriate spray tip and air cap for your application.
Install a Spray Tip
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of a fluid injection injury, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 7 before removing or installing a spray tip.
Install a spray tip in the gun. The air cap and spray tip position determines the direction of the spray pattern.
The ability of the AA 270 HS Spray Gun to spray at higher fluid pressures than the standard AA2000 Spray
Gun provides the additional power needed to atomize higher solids materials.
Rotate the air cap (the spray tip rotates with it) as needed for the desired spray pattern direction. See
Fig. 3.
Vertical Spray Pattern Horizontal Spray Pattern
The spray gun has a built-in lead and lag operation.
When triggered, the gun begins emitting air before the fluid is discharged. When the trigger is released, the fluid stops before the air flow stops. This helps assure the spray is atomized and prevents fluid buildup on the air cap.
Fig. 3
Adjust the Spray Pattern
WARNING
RECOIL HAZARD
Due to the very high pressure fluid emitted, a strong recoil action will occur when you trigger this gun. If you are unprepared, your hand could be forced back toward your body or you could lose your balance and fall, resulting in serious injury.
WARNING
Operation
5. Set the atomizing air pressure at about 10 psi (0.7
bar). Check the spray pattern, then adjust the air pressure until the tails are completely atomized and pulled into the spray pattern. See Fig. 5. Do not exceed 100 psi (7 bar) air pressure to the gun.
For a narrower pattern, turn the pattern adjustment valve knob clockwise. If the pattern is still not narrow enough, increase the air pressure to the gun slightly or use a different size tip.
NOTE: For some spray tips, when the line air pressure to the gun is increased to a certain level, the spray pattern will become round. This is the smallest pattern width. Further increases in air pressure will force the pattern to turn from horizontal to vertical or from vertical to horizontal.
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of component rupture and serious injury, including injection, do not exceed the gun’s maximum fluid working pressure of 4000 psi (280 bar) or the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated component in the system.
Pattern
Adjustment
Knob

1. Set the fluid pressure with the fluid regulator.
Fig. 4
2. Trigger the gun to check the atomization; do not be concerned about the pattern shape yet.
3. Increase the fluid pressure just to the point where a further increase in fluid pressure does not significantly improve fluid atomization.
4. Close the pattern adjustment valve by turning the knob (see Fig. 4) counterclockwise all the way.
This sets the gun for its widest pattern.

Operation
Apply the Fluid
When applying the fluid, keep the gun a consistent distance, 8 to 10 inches (200 to 250 mm), from the surface of the object being sprayed. Always hold the gun at a right angle from the surface. Do not make an arc with the gun as it causes an uneven coat of fluid.
See Fig. 6.
CAUTION
Openings in the tip guard reduce paint buildup on the guard while spraying. Damage to the sharp edges of the openings will cause paint to collect at that area.
To avoid damage, never hang the gun by the tip guard.

Fig. 6
WRONG
0793A
Operation
Clean the Spray Gun and System Daily
4. If using an in-line filter, remove and clean it thoroughly in a compatible solvent.
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of an injection injury or splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin:
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page
7 before cleaning, removing, or installing a spray tip and whenever you are instructed to relieve pressure.
Do not wipe fluid buildup off the gun or spray tip until pressure is relieved.
5. Clean the system’s fluid filter and air line filter.
Check the Diffuser-seat Operation Weekly
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
The gun diffuser-seat breaks up spray when the gun is sprayed without the spray tip installed, such as during flushing. This reduces the risk of an injection injury.
Check the diffuser-seat operation weekly.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the gun:
Never immerse the gun in solvent as this could damage packings and allow solvent in the air passages.
Do not use fluids containing halogenated hydrocarbons to clean the outside of the gun as
HHC is not compatible with aluminum.
Methylene Chloride is not recommended as a flushing or cleaning solvent with this gun or any device with nylon or aluminum components.
Do not use metal tools to clean holes in the air cap or spray tip.
1. Relieve the pressure as instructed on page 7.
2. Remove the tip guard and spray tip.
3. Start the pump and operate it at its lowest pressure.
4. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly against a grounded metal waste container, and trigger the gun. See Fig. 7. If the fluid coming from the gun is not diffused into an irregular stream, replace the diffuser-seat immediately.
