3. Setup

Proper setup ensures optimal performance and a smooth painting experience.

3.1. Material Preparation and Viscosity Test:

1. Ensure your paint material is clean and free of debris.
2. Use the provided viscosity cup to test the paint's thickness. Fill the cup with paint and time how long it takes for the paint to flow out completely.
3. If the flow time exceeds the recommended range (up to 120 DIN-s for this sprayer), dilute the paint with the appropriate thinner (water for water-based paints, mineral spirits for oil-based paints) until the desired viscosity is achieved. Stir thoroughly.

3.2. Assembly:

1. Attach the paint container to the spray gun head, ensuring the washer is correctly seated and the container is securely tightened.
2. Select the appropriate brass nozzle (1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, or 3mm) based on the paint type and desired spray pattern. Larger nozzles are for thicker paints and larger areas, smaller for finer details.
3. Insert the selected nozzle into the air cap and secure it with the cap nut.
4. Connect the air hose to both the spray gun head and the main unit's bellows connector. Ensure connections are tight.
5. Attach the shoulder strap to the main unit for comfortable carrying during operation.
6. Pour the prepared paint into the 1300ml container. The innovative side-adding feature allows for easy refilling without detaching the container.

4. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective and consistent paint application.

4.1. Spray Patterns and Flow Control:

• The sprayer offers three adjustable spray patterns:
  • Horizontal Oval: Ideal for vertical surfaces.
  • Vertical Oval: Ideal for horizontal surfaces.
  • Round: Best for small areas, corners, or detailed work.
  Rotate the air cap to switch between these patterns.
• Adjust the flow rate using the control knob on the gun body to regulate the paint output. Start with a lower setting and gradually increase until the desired coverage is achieved.
• Adjust the suction tube based on the spray angle to ensure continuous paint flow. For downward spraying, position the tube towards the front; for upward spraying, position it towards the back.

4.2. Spraying Technique:

• Hold the spray gun approximately 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) from the surface, keeping it perpendicular to the surface.
• Move the gun in smooth, even strokes, overlapping each pass by about 50% to ensure uniform coverage.
• Release the trigger at the end of each stroke to avoid paint buildup.
• For best results, apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per paint manufacturer instructions.

2. Disassembly: Disassemble the spray gun head, including the air cap, nozzle, and container.
3. Rinsing: Rinse all paint-contacting parts with the appropriate cleaning solution (water for water-based paints, mineral spirits or paint thinner for oil-based paints).
4. Thorough Cleaning: Use the provided cleaning needle and brush to remove any paint residue from the nozzle, air cap, and suction tube. Ensure all passages are clear.
5. Wipe Down: Wipe the exterior of the spray gun and main unit with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the main unit in water.
6. Filter Foam: Periodically check and clean or replace the filter foam in the main unit to ensure proper airflow.
7. Lubrication: Apply a small amount of gun lubricant (not included, but recommended for moving parts) to the trigger mechanism and any rubber seals to maintain smooth operation and prevent wear.
