Setup and Paint Preparation
Proper paint preparation is crucial for optimal spray performance and to prevent clogging. Always wear protective goggles and a mask during preparation and spraying.
1. Paint Dilution:
Use the included viscosity cup to test your paint's thickness. Different paints require different levels of dilution. Do not use latex paint or flammable liquids. Only use oil-based or water-based paints without precipitation and particles. If the paint in the cup does not run out within 50 seconds, it is too sticky and needs further dilution. Add the appropriate thinner (corresponding to your paint type) and stir thoroughly. Re-test until the paint flows out within 50 seconds.

2. Filling the Container:
Once diluted, transfer the paint into the 1400ml container using one of the provided paper funnels to filter out any impurities. This helps prevent nozzle blockages.

3. Nozzle Selection:
Choose from the six brass nozzles based on your paint's viscosity and the desired application. Refer to the table below for recommended DIN-seconds (flow duration) for different materials:

| Material | Recommended Flow Duration (seconds) |
|---|---|
| Solvent-based paints | 15-55 seconds |
| Primers | 25-55 seconds |
| Pickling | No need to dilute |
| 2 component paints | 20-55 seconds |
| Varnishes | 15-40 seconds |
| Waterborne paints | 20-40 seconds |
| Wood preservatives | No need to dilute |
Operating the Paint Sprayer
Once assembled and filled with properly diluted paint, you are ready to begin spraying. The sprayer offers adjustable flow control and multiple spray patterns for optimal results.
1. Adjusting Spray Patterns:
The spray gun allows adjustment between horizontal, vertical, and circular spray patterns. Rotate the air cap to select the desired pattern based on your project's needs.

2. Adjusting Flow Control:
Use the pressure regulation knob to adjust the paint flow rate. Turn the knob to increase or decrease the amount of paint sprayed, allowing for precise control over coverage and finish.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning is essential to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your paint sprayer. Clean the equipment immediately after each use to prevent paint from drying and clogging the nozzles.
1. Disassembly and Initial Cleaning:
- Always wear gloves during cleaning.
- Separate the front half body (spray head and container) from the motor unit. Warning: Do not wash the motor unit or allow it to come into contact with water or liquid.
- Drain any residual paint from the container and feed pipe completely.
- Wipe the paint on the outer wall of the feed pipe with a cloth or paper towel.

2. Deep Cleaning Components:
- Remove the lock nut, air cap, and nozzle. Soak these parts in an appropriate cleaning agent (water for water-based paints, thinner for oil-based paints).
- Use the provided cleaning brush and needle to clean the air inlet, feed pipe, and nozzle holes.
- Do not wash the O-ring of the nozzle with cleaning agent; wipe it with a cloth only.
- Wash the paint pot and viscosity cup thoroughly.
