Setup

1. Battery Installation: This sprayer is compatible with 18V batteries such as BL1850B, BL1830, BL1840, BL1850, BL1860, BL1840B, BL1860B, BL1820, and others. Insert a fully charged 18V battery into the battery slot at the base of the sprayer handle. Note: Battery and charger are not included.
2. Assembling the Sprayer:
   • Press the release knob on the sprayer.
   • Pull the spray gun body away from the motor body.
   • Align the protrusion on the spray gun body with the hole on the motor body and insert it firmly until it clicks into place.
3. Selecting and Installing Nozzle: Choose the appropriate nozzle (1.0mm or 2.5mm) based on the viscosity of your material. Screw the selected nozzle onto the front of the spray gun.
4. Preparing Material: Fill the 800ml container with your desired paint or liquid. Ensure the material is properly thinned according to the manufacturer's recommendations for HVLP sprayers. Use the included viscosity cup to check consistency if needed.
5. Attaching Container: Screw the filled container securely onto the bottom of the spray gun body.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective and controlled spraying.

Figure 3: Available spray patterns: Horizontal, Vertical, and Circular.

1. Adjusting Spray Pattern: The sprayer offers three spray patterns: horizontal, vertical, and circular. Rotate the Shape Switch at the front of the gun to select the desired pattern.
   • Horizontal: For spraying wider surfaces with vertical strokes.
   • Vertical: For spraying taller surfaces with horizontal strokes.
   • Circular: For small areas, corners, or detailed work.
2. Adjusting Flow Control: The Flow Control Knob allows you to regulate the paint output.

   • Turn the knob downwards to increase the flow rate.
   • Turn the knob upwards to decrease the flow rate.
   • Adjust the flow to achieve the desired coverage and avoid paint waste.
3. Pre-Spraying Dust Removal (Unique Feature): Before applying paint, you can use the blow connector with the paint sprayer to blow dust and debris off the surface. This helps achieve a smoother, better spraying effect.
4. Spraying: Hold the sprayer at a consistent distance (typically 6-12 inches) from the surface and move it in smooth, even strokes. Press the trigger to begin spraying. Release the trigger to stop.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Thorough cleaning after each use is crucial for the longevity and performance of your sprayer.

1. Emptying Container: After spraying, empty any remaining material from the container.
2. Initial Rinse: Fill the container with an appropriate cleaning solution (water for water-based paints, mineral spirits for oil-based paints). Spray the cleaning solution through the gun until it runs clear.
3. Disassembly: Disconnect the battery. Press the release knob and separate the spray gun body from the motor body. Unscrew the container.
4. Detailed Cleaning:
   • Use the included cleaning brush to clean the container and the suction tube.
   • Use the included cleaning needle to clear any paint residue from the nozzle and air cap.
   • Thoroughly clean all parts that came into contact with paint.
5. Internal Pipe Cleaning (Unique Feature): After spraying, connect the cleaning connector to a faucet. This allows you to clean residual paint inside the pipe, making the cleaning process easier and more effective.
6. Drying and Storage: Allow all components to dry completely before reassembling or storing the sprayer. Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
