Operation
Note: The following instructions are for guns used with Graco’s
FinishPro Sprayers. See the sprayer instruction manual
311905. If you are using a different sprayer, see your equipment instruction manual.
If you are using a FinishPro
regulation is only provided at the gun. The FinishPro Model Sprayers provide additional air regulation at the sprayer.
1. Unlock trigger (1a).
2. Be sure the arrow shaped tip (33) faces forward (spray).
3. Hold gun perpendicular and approximately 12-inches (304 mm) from surface. Move gun first, then pull gun trigger (3) to spray a test pattern.
4. Always hold gun at a right angle from the surface. Do not make an arc with the gun. This causes an uneven coat of fluid. To obtain an even finish, use smooth, even strokes across the object being sprayed with a 50% overlap.
