perpendicular with spraying area then move it parallel for several times, Stopping
gun movement in mid-stroke will cause a build up of paint and result in runs. Do not
fan the gun from side to side while painting. This will cause a build-up of paint in the
center of the stroke and an insufficient coating at each end.
3. Trigger the gun properly. Start the gun moving at the beginning of the stroke
BEFORE SQUEEZING THE TRIGGER and release the trigger BEFORE STOPPING
GUN MOVEMENT at the end of the stroke. This procedure will blend each stroke
with the next without showing overlap or unevenness .
4. The amount of paint being applied can be varied by the speed of the stroke, distance
from the surface and adjustment of the fluid control knob.
5. Overlap strokes just enough to obtain an even coat.
NOTE: Two thin coats of paint will yield better results and have less
chance of runs than one heavy layer.
6. Use a piece of cardboard as a shield to catch overspray at the edges of the work to
Incomplete cleaning could cause function failures and a degradation of
the fan form.
Remove any remaining paint by pouring it into another container.
Disassemble the spray gun making sure to remove the needle before disassembling
the nozzle to avoid damage to the housing of the nozzle closure.
Clean all the paint passages and the nozzle. Clean the other components using a
brush soaked in solvent.
Reassemble the spray gun and spray a small quantity of solvent to eliminate all the
residues in the paint passages.
