Setup Instructions
- Connect the Air Hose: Securely connect one end of the provided air hose to the air outlet on the compressor and the other end to the airbrush fitting. Ensure connections are tight to prevent air leaks.
- Attach Oil-Water Separator (Optional but Recommended): If using, attach the oil-water separator between the air hose and the airbrush to filter out moisture and oil for cleaner air flow.
- Select and Attach Fluid Cup: Choose the appropriate fluid cup (5cc, 20cc, or 40cc) based on your project's paint volume requirements and securely attach it to the top of the airbrush.
- Install Nozzle and Needle: Select the desired nozzle and needle size (0.2mm, 0.3mm, or 0.5mm) and carefully install them into the airbrush. Refer to the diagram for proper assembly.
- Connect Power: Plug the adapter into the compressor and then into a suitable power outlet (110 Volts).

Operating Instructions
Powering On and Mode Selection:
- Press the "On/Off" button on the compressor to power it on.
- Press the "Mode" button to cycle through the three available spray modes:
- Low (15 PSI): Ideal for makeup and nail design.
- Medium (25 PSI): Suitable for models, shoes, and clothes.
- High (30 PSI): Best for large area paintings and graffiti.

Dual-Action Control:
The VEVOR Airbrush features dual-action control for precise air and paint flow management:
- Trigger (Top): Controls both air and paint flow. Pulling back the trigger releases air, and further pulling back increases paint flow.
- Knob (Rear): Used to control the fluid flow rate, allowing for adjustment of spray thickness.
The compressor features an automatic start/stop function. It will automatically stop when the pressure reaches the specified value and restart when the pressure drops during use, maintaining consistent output.

Painting Tips:
- Always dilute your paint to the appropriate consistency for airbrushing.
- Practice on scrap material to get a feel for the airbrush and pressure settings before working on your final project.
- Maintain a consistent distance from your work surface for even application.
Maintenance & Cleaning
Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of your airbrush kit. Clean the airbrush immediately after each use, especially when changing colors or finishing a session.
Cleaning Steps:
- Empty Remaining Paint: Empty any remaining paint from the fluid cup.
- Add Cleaning Solution: Add a small amount of appropriate airbrush cleaning solution or water (depending on paint type) into the fluid cup using the dropper.
- Back-flush: Place your finger over the airbrush nozzle, pull back the trigger, and allow small bubbles to appear in the fluid cup. This back-flushes the paint channel. Repeat several times.
- Spray Out: Spray the cleaning solution onto a paper towel or into a waste container until clear.
- Disassemble and Clean: For thorough cleaning, disassemble the airbrush (nozzle, needle, fluid cup). Use the provided cleaning brushes and tools to remove any residual paint from all components.
- Wipe and Reassemble: Wipe all parts dry with a clean cloth or tissue. Reassemble the airbrush carefully.

Storage:
Store the airbrush and compressor in a clean, dry place. The compressor has a convenient pen holder for the airbrush when not in use.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No air flow from airbrush | Compressor not on; hose disconnected; nozzle clogged. | Ensure compressor is powered on; check hose connections; clean nozzle and airbrush thoroughly. |
| Paint sputtering or uneven spray | Paint too thick; partially clogged nozzle/needle; insufficient air pressure. | Dilute paint properly; clean airbrush components; select a higher pressure mode on the compressor. |
| Airbrush leaks paint | Loose nozzle; damaged O-rings; bent needle. | Tighten nozzle; inspect and replace O-rings if damaged; check needle for bends and replace if necessary. |
| Compressor not turning on | No power; faulty adapter. | Check power connection and outlet; try a different power source or contact support if adapter is suspected faulty. |
