1. Explanation of symbols used
This symbol indicates a potential danger for you or for the device.
Under this symbol you can nd important information on how to
avoid injuries and damage to the device.
Danger of electrical shock
Indicates tips for use and other particularly useful information.
This symbol identies devices and accessory devices that
are suitable for processing ne plaster, structured paint and
undercoats. If a material bears this logo, it is particularly well suited
for use with the relevant device.
2. General Safety Instructions
WARNING! Read all safety notications and instructions. Failure to comply with the safety
notications and instructions provided may result in electric shock, re and/or
serious injury. The term "power tool" used below covers both mains-operated
power tools (with mains lead) and accumulator-operated power tools (without
mains lead).
1. Safety at the workplace
a) Keep your workplace clean and well lit. Disorder or unlit workplaces may result in
accidents.
b) Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain ammable liquids, gases
or dusts. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite the dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other persons away when using the power tool. You can
lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The tool plug must t into the socket. The plug may not be modied in any
form. Do not use adaptor plugs together with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodied plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.

TexPerfect Flexio 525
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating
elements, stoves and refrigerators. The risk through electric shock increases if your body is earthed.
c) Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture. The risk of an electric shock
increases if water penetrates electrical equipment.
d) Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool by the lead, hanging it
from the lead or by pulling on the lead to remove the plug. Keep the lead
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving tool parts. Damaged or twisted
leads increase the risk of an electric shock.
e) If you work outdoors with a power tool, only use extension cables suitable
for outdoor use. The use of an extension lead that is suitable for outdoors reduces the risk of an electric shock.
f) If you cannot avoid using the tool in a damp environment, use a residual
current operated circuit-breaker. Using a residual current operated circuit-breaker
avoids the risk of electric shock.
3. Safety of Persons
a) Be attentive. Pay attention to what you are doing and work sensibly with
a power tool. Do not use the tool if you are tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. Just a moment of inattentiveness while using the tool can lead to serious injuries.
GB
b) Wear personal safety equipment and always wear safety goggles Wearing
personal protective equipment, such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, safety helm
or ear protection, depending on the type of power tools, reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starting-up. Make sure that the electric tool is switched o
before you connect it to the power supply, pick it up or carry it. Accidents can
occur if you carry the power tool while your nger is on the switch or if you connect
the power tool to the power supply which it is on.
d) Remove setting tools or wrenches before switching on the power tool. A tool
or wrench that is in a rotating tool part can lead to injuries.
e) Avoid an unnatural posture. Ensure that you are standing securely and
have your balance at all times. This ensures that you can control the tool better in
unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) This device can be used by children over the age of 8 as well as by people
with restricted physical, sensory or mental abilities or who have little
experience or knowledge about it, providing they are supervised or
instructed on how to use the device safely and what risks are involved.
Children may not play with the device. User maintenance and cleaning may not be
carried out by children unattended.

4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool designed for the work that you
are doing. You work better and safer in the specied performance range if you use the suitable power tool.
b) Do not use power tools whose switch is defective. A power tool that cannot be
switched on or o is dangerous and has to be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out tool settings, changing
accessories or putting the tool away. This precautionary measure prevents
unintentional starting of the tool.
d) Store unused power tools so that they are inaccessible to children. Do not
let persons use the tool who are not familiar with it or who have not read
these instructions. Power tools are dangerous when they are used by inexperienced persons.
e) Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the moving parts function
trouble-free and do not jam, whether parts are broken or damaged so that
the tool function is impaired. Have damaged parts repaired before using
the tool. Many accidents have their origin in power tools that have been maintained badly.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in accordance with these
instructions and in a fashion specied for this special tool type. Take the
working conditions and the activity to be carried out into consideration. The
use of power tools for purposes other than the intended ones can lead to dangerous
situations.
5. Service
a) Have your tool repaired only by qualied specialist personnel and only with
original spare parts. This ensures that the tool safety is maintained.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or it’s
service agent or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a safety hazard.

3. Safety Instructions for Spray Guns
Caution! Wear breathing equipment: Paint mist and solvent vapors are damaging to
•
health. Always wear breathing equipment and only work in well ventilated rooms or
using supplementary ventilating equipment. It is advisable to wear working clothing,
safety glasses, ear protection and gloves.
CAUTION: DANGER OF INJURY!
Never point the spray stream towards human beings or animals.
Sockets and plugs must be masked. Risk of an electric shock as a
consequence of sprayed material entering the socket!
Attention! Never operate the device if the nozzle seal is either
damaged or missing. If the nozzle seal is either missing or damaged
liquids can enter the device and increase the risk of an electric shock.
Check the nozzle seal before each use.
Do not use the spray guns to spray ammable substances.
•
The spray guns are not to be cleaned with ammable solvents.
•
Caution against dangers that can arise from the sprayed substance and observe the
•
text and information on the containers or the specications given by the substance
manufacturer.
Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential.
•
The device may not be used in workplaces covered by the explosion-protection
•
regulations.
To avoid the hazard of explosion when spraying, provide for eective natural or
•
articial ventilation.
There must be no sources of ignition such as, for example, open res, smoke of lit
•
cigarettes, cigars and tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces, etc. in the
vicinity during spraying.
When working with the Flexio 525 indoors as well as outdoors ensure that no solvent
•
vapors are sucked in by the spray gun.
The spray gun is not a toy; children must therefore not be allowed to handle it or play
•
with it.
Before working on the spray gun remove the power plug from the socket.
•
Cover areas that are not to be sprayed. When working keep in mind that wind, for
•
example, may transport paint mist over great distances and cause damage.
Never open the device yourself in order to carry out repairs in the electrical system!
•
The units may only be used with a functional valve. If paints rises in the ventilating
•
hose (Fig. 1, item 13) do not operate the unit further! Dismantle and clean the
ventilating hose, valve and diaphragm and replace the diaphragm if necessary.
Do not lay the spray gun on its side.
•
The device is equipped with a thermal release which disconnects the device in case of
•
overheating. In this case, turn o the device, remove the plug and let the device cool

8. Preparation of the workplace
Sockets and plugs must be masked. Risk of an electric shock as a
consequence of sprayed material entering the socket!
Mask all the areas and objects that are not to be spray painted, or
remove them from the work area. No liability is assumed for damage
due to overspray. Silicate paint corrodes glass and ceramic surfaces
upon contact! All such surfaces must therefore be completely covered.
Pay attention to the quality of the adhesive tape used.
Do not use excessively strong adhesive tape on wallpaper and painted
i
surfaces, in order to avoid damaging these surfaces when removing the
tape. Remove adhesive tape slowly and evenly; do not use jerky movements.
Do not leave adhesive tape on surfaces any longer than necessary, in order
to minimise the possibility of residues when removing.
Also observe the adhesive tape manufacturer's instructions.
9. Preparing the wall
The spray result depends heavily on the smoothness and cleanliness of
i
the surface to be sprayed. Fine plaster cannot be used to level bumps or
holes in the wall. Therefore the surface should be carefully prepared and
kept free of dust.
Depending on the surface, it might be necessary to apply a suitable sealing primer/
undercoat before spraying the ne plaster on the wall. Please observe the information
about this that is provided by the manufacturer of the material.
10. Preparation of the Coating Material
Spray material that is at least at room temperature provides a better spray
i
result.
The Flexio 525 is perfect for spraying mansory paint, ne plaster, structured paint and
undercoats either undiluted or partially diluted. Detailed information is available in the
technical data sheet of the manufacturer ( Internet download).
1.
Stir the material thoroughly and dilute it in the container as per the recommended
dilution(an agitator is recommended for stirring).

11. Start-up
Before connecting to the mains supply, be sure that the supply voltage is identical with
the value given on the rating plate.
Unscrew the container from the spray gun.
•
Aligning suction tube. (Fig. 2)
•
If the suction tube is positioned correctly, the container contents can be sprayed without
almost any residue.
When working on lying objects: Turn the suction tube forwards. (Fig. 2 A)
Spraying work when working on overhead objects: Turn the suction tube rearwards.
(Fig. 2 B)
Place the container on a paper base and pour in the prepared coating substance with the
•
aid of the feed hopper included in the scope of supply (Fig. 1, 15). Screw the container
tightly onto the spray gun.
Connect the front part with the rear part of the gun (Fig. 3).
•
Put the machine down only on a level, clean surface. Otherwise the machine could tip
•
over!
Pull the trigger. The Flexio 525 has a two-stage trigger. In the rst stage the turbine is
•
started. If the trigger guard is pressed further, the material is transported.
Adjust the spray setting on the spray gun.
•
The enclosed practice poster is ideal for familiarising yourself with
operation of the spray gun. After trying out the rst spray coatings, it
i
makes sense to test it further on cardboard or a similar surface in order
to nd out the right ow rate of paint and air for the best spray pattern.
Detailed information about these settings can be found in chapter 12-14.
12. Selecting the Spray Setting
WARNING! Danger of injury! Never pull the trigger guard while adjusting
the air cap.
With the union nut (g. 4, 1) slightly unscrewed, turn the air cap (2) to the desired spray
setting position (arrow). Then tighten the union nut.
