6. Cordless Paint Sprayer Setup

6.1 Battery Charging and Installation

1. Before first use, fully charge both 21V 4.0Ah batteries using the provided charger. The charger indicator light will change when charging is complete.
2. Insert a fully charged battery into the battery slot at the base of the paint sprayer handle until it clicks into place.

6.2 Preparing Paint and Nozzle Selection

1. Prepare your paint according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring it is properly diluted for spraying. Use the provided funnel and filter papers to strain the paint and prevent clogs.
2. Pour the prepared paint into the paint container and securely attach it to the sprayer gun.
3. Select the appropriate copper nozzle (1.0/1.5/1.8/2.0/2.5mm) based on the viscosity of your paint and desired spray pattern.
   • 1.0mm / 1.5mm: For dilution atomization spraying (e.g., solutions, thin paints).
   • 1.8mm / 2.0mm: For high atomization spraying (e.g., paint, topcoat).
   • 2.5mm: For primer, latex paint, etc.
4. Attach the selected nozzle to the sprayer head, ensuring it is tightened securely.

7. Cordless Paint Sprayer Operation

7.1 Adjusting Spray Patterns and Flow

The paint sprayer allows for adjustment of spray patterns and paint flow volume.

Figure 7.1: Diagram illustrating the three adjustable spray patterns: 90° Vertical, 180° Horizontal, and 45° Circular. The image shows how to rotate the nozzle cap to switch between these patterns.

Figure 7.2: Visual guide for adjusting the spray volume and spray length on the paint sprayer. The top section shows a dial for spray volume adjustment, and the bottom section shows a knob for spray length adjustment, with corresponding spray density indicators.

• Spray Patterns: Rotate the air cap on the front of the sprayer to select one of three spray patterns:
  • Vertical (90°): For horizontal surfaces.
  • Horizontal (180°): For vertical surfaces.
  • Circular (45°): For small, intricate areas or corners.
• Spray Volume Adjustment: Use the dial located on the top of the sprayer to increase or decrease the paint flow volume.
• Spray Length Adjustment: Use the knob near the nozzle to adjust the spray length, which affects the atomization and coverage.
