4. Setup
Battery Installation:
This paint sprayer is compatible with Milwaukee 18V batteries (e.g., 48-11-1852, 48-11-1811, 48-11-1815, 48-11-1820, 48-11-1822, 48-11-1828, 48-11-1840, 48-11-1841, 48-11-1850, 48-11-1865, 48-11-1880). Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Slide the battery into the battery interface until it clicks into place.
Paint Preparation and Filling:
- Dilute Paint: Use the included viscosity cup to determine the correct dilution for your paint. The maximum viscosity supported is 80 Din-s. Refer to the table below for general outflow times.
- Filter Paint: Use the paint filters provided to strain the paint before pouring it into the container. This helps prevent clogging.
- Fill Container: Pour the prepared paint into the 1000ml spray container.
- Attach Container: Securely tighten the spray container to the main spray gun unit.

5. Operating Instructions
Selecting Nozzle and Spray Pattern:
The sprayer comes with 4 nozzle sizes (1.0mm, 1.8mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm) to suit different paint viscosities and project needs. The 2.5mm nozzle is pre-installed. You can also adjust the spray pattern to one of three types:
- Horizontal (180°): For wide, horizontal surfaces.
- Vertical (90°): For tall, vertical surfaces.
- Circular (45°): For small, round, or intricate areas.
Adjust the spray pattern by rotating the air cap on the front of the sprayer.

Adjusting Flow Rate:
The output volume of paint can be controlled by adjusting the flow rate knob located near the trigger. Turn the knob to increase or decrease the paint flow to match your project requirements and desired finish.
Spraying Technique:
- Hold the sprayer at a consistent distance (typically 8-12 inches) from the surface.
- Move the sprayer in smooth, even strokes, overlapping each pass slightly.
- Release the trigger at the end of each stroke to avoid paint buildup.
- Practice on a scrap piece of material to get a feel for the spray pattern and flow before starting your main project.

6. Maintenance
Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and performance of your paint sprayer.
Cleaning After Use:
Clean the sprayer immediately after each use. Dried paint can permanently damage the unit.
- Empty Container: Remove the spray container and empty any remaining paint.
- Rinse Container: Rinse the container thoroughly with water (for water-based paints) or appropriate cleaning solution (for oil-based paints).
- Disassemble: Disassemble the nozzle and air cap components.
- Clean Components: Use the provided cleaning brush and needle to thoroughly clean all parts that came into contact with paint, including the nozzle, air cap, and suction tube.
- Run Cleaner: Fill the container with clean water or cleaning solution and spray it through the unit until the liquid runs clear.
- Wipe Down: Wipe the exterior of the sprayer with a damp cloth.
- Dry and Store: Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling and storing the sprayer in a clean, dry place.

| No paint or inconsistent spray. | Nozzle clogged. Paint too thick. Suction tube blocked. Air cap dirty. | Clean the nozzle and air cap thoroughly. Dilute paint to the correct viscosity. Check and clear the suction tube. |
| Paint drips or runs. | Paint too thin. Sprayer too close to surface. Too much paint flow. | Adjust paint dilution. Increase distance from surface. Reduce flow rate using the adjustment knob. |
| Rough or grainy spray pattern. | Paint not properly filtered. Nozzle partially clogged. | Ensure paint is filtered before filling. Clean nozzle and check for debris. |
