IMPORTANT: Before using for the first time, the spray gun must be cleaned using a solvent based thinner. If not removed, the red oil used by the manufacturer for testing and corrosion protection may contaminate paint. IMPORTANT: The Spray Gun must be cleaned immediately after use. Improper cleaning is a common reason for the Spray Gun not to work.

8. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across running machines or air hoses. 9. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords and air hoses periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician. The handle must be kept clean, dry, and free from oil and grease at all times. 10. Disconnect air supply. Disconnect ai

19. Compressed air only. Never use combustible gas as a power source. Never exceed the recommended operating pressure of the any of the parts (i.e. hoses, fittings, gun) of the Sprayer system. 20. Do not spray near open flames, pilot lights, stoves, heaters, the air compressor, or any other heat source. Most solvents and coatings are highly flammable, particularly when sprayed. Maintain a distance of at least 25 feet from the air compressor. If possible, locate the air compressor in a separ

Air Connection For best service you should incorporate a regulator and inline filter, as shown in the diagram above. Hoses, couplers, regulators, and filters are all available at Harbor Freight Tools. Note: Compressor pumps discharge condensed water, oil, or other contaminants along with the compressed air. Condensation causes “fish eyes” to appear in paint patterns. To avoid this problem, install water/oil removal filters and controls (not included) as close to the Spray Gun as possible. I

A Comparison: Conventional versus HVLP Spray Guns Because conventional spray guns require a much higher air cap pressure to atomize the paint than HVLP Spray Guns, conventional guns have lower transfer efficiencies and more overspray. This translates to a significant paint/material savings for HVLP guns, in addition to making them more environmentally friendly. To qualify as HVLP, the dynamic air pressure going in the Air Cap must be a maximum of 10 PSI. The lower the air pressure, the less bou

Fan Direction and Pattern Adjustment (continued) 3. Turn the Fluid Control Knob (29) clockwise until it is fully closed. See FIGURE 1 on page 6. 4. After setting up a piece of scrap material, squeeze the Trigger (38) in short bursts while turning the Fluid Control Knob (29) counterclockwise and observe the spray patterns until you see the pattern you want. Also, look at the pattern for consistency. Too much air may cause the spray to come out too fine. Reduce the air pressure or allow more ma

Techniques Note: Before spraying, mask all objects you do not want sprayed and lay cloths (not included) on the floors. 1. Always keep the gun at right angles to the workpiece (See FIGURE 6). Pull the Trigger (38) slowly and move the Spray Gun in parallel strokes to the object being painted. Keep the distance from the object being painted at 6” to 9”. This may slightly differ depending on the flow adjustment and the material being sprayed. Do not stop the gun movement while spraying. If you

IMPORTANT: The Spray Gun must be cleaned IMMEDIATELY after use. Improper cleaning is a common reason for the Spray Gun not to work properly. Materials dry quickly which will render the gun useless. It is extremely difficult to remove dry paint from small passages within the Gun. Maintenance SOLVENT SELECTION Always follow the paint manufacturer’s recommendations for cleaning, solvent type, and disposing of used solvent. Latex Paints: Use warm, soapy water. IMPORTANT: Do not use mineral spirit
