4 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Fig 1
Fig 2
Fig 3
Fig 4
For toxic vapors produced by spraying certain materials can create intoxication and
serious damage to health. Always wear safety glasses, gloves and respirator to prevent the toxic vapor hazard, solvent and pointing paint coming into contact your eyes or skin. (see fig 1)
Never use oxygen, combustible or any other bottle gas as a power source or would
cause explosion and serious personal injury. (see fig 2)
Fluid and solvent can be highly flammable or combustible. Pls Use the tool only in
well-ventilated area, and avoid any ignition sources, such as smoking, open flames and decrial hazard. (see fig 3)
Disconnect tool from air supply hose before doing tool maintenance and during non-
operation, for emerge stop and prevention of unintended operation, a ball valve near the gun to air supply is recommend.
Use clean, dry and regulate compressed air rated at 3.0-4.0bar, never exceed
maximum permissive operating pressure 8.3bar (120psi) (see fig 4)
Never use homogenate hydrocarbon solvent, which can chemically react with
aluminum and zinc parts and chemically compatible with Alum. and zinc parts.
Never point gun at you and others at any time. Before operating the tool, make sure all the screws & caps are securely tightened in
case of leaking;
Before painting, make inspection for free movement of trigger and nozzle to insure
tool can operate well.
Never modify this tool for any other applications. Only use parts, nozzles and
accessories recommended and accessories recommended by manufactures.
5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPERATION
5.1 Preparation
1. After unpacking the product, inspect carefully for any damage that may have occurred during transit. Make sure to tighten fittings, bolts, etc., before putting unit into service.
2. Thoroughly mix and thin paint in accordance with the paint manufacturers
instructions. Most materials will spray readily if thinned properly.
3. Strain material through filter, cheese cloth or a paint strainer.
4. Fill the canister about ¾ full and start the air compressor.
POWAIR0105-106 EN
WARNING DO NOT EXCEED Maximum Pressure of Spray Gun or any other parts in the compressor system.
5. After Connect the gun to air supply, please make sure that the fluid cap, container
and air hose have been connected tightly with spray gun.

6. Set up a piece of cardboard or other scrap material to use as a target and adjust for
Decrease: Pattern: Increase:
Decrease: Fluid: Increase:
best spray pattern.
WARNING Never aim or spray at yourself or anybody else which would cause serious injury.
7. Test the consistency of the material by making a few strokes on a cardboard target. If
material still appears too thick, add a small amount of thinner. THIN WITH CARE! Do not exceed paint manufacturers thinning recommendations.
5.2 Adjustment
5.2.1 Pattern adjustment:
Turning pattern adjusting knob to the right till the end will make spray pattern round, or turning left will make spray pattern ellipse.
5.2.2 Fluid (paint) adjustment:
Turning the paint adjusting knob clockwise will decrease the volume of fluid output and counter-clockwise will increase fluid output.

5.2.3 Operation
1. Begin spraying. Always keep the gun at right angles to the work .

2. Keep the nozzle about 6 to 12 inches from the work surface. Grip the gun keeping

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
protect other surfaces.

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.
Warning: Never use metal or other objects that could damage the holes in the nozzle and cap. never immerse the spray gun completely in solvent. never use components or parts that are not manufacturer originals.
7 STORING
When not using spray gun, turn the fluid adjustment knob counter-clockwise to open
which will reduce spring tension on needle fluid tip.
Spray gun MUST BE well cleaned and lightly lubricated.
