SMART SELECT NOZZLE SELECTION - (FIGURE F)
There are three spray patterns to choose from. They are marked as 1, 2 and 3 on the Smart Select label located on the top
of the sprayer (figure F). To select pattern number 1, turn the spray nozzle and align the green indicator on the spray
nozzle with the number 1 on the label (figure F1).
NOTE: Spray nozzle can only be assembled in one direction. Refer to figure S for proper assembly.
• Pattern number 1
- Horizontal Flat
Jet - Apply up and
down a surface.
• Pattern number 2
- Circular Jet - for
corners, edges and
narrow surfaces.
TIP: Position number 2 has a detent that you can feel when you turn the spray nozzle.
Make sure it locates in the detent.
• Pattern number 3 - Vertical Flat Jet. Apply side to side.
WARNING: Risk of injury. Never point the sprayer at any part of the body. Never pull the
trigger while adjusting the spray setting.
DEVELOPING THE PROPER SPRAYING TECHNIQUE
• Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material such as
cardboard to test your spray pattern and become familiar with the
flow control feature of the sprayer.
• Ensure surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt, and grease.
• Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could be blown
onto newly sprayed surfaces.
• Cover any areas not intended to be sprayed.
• Always spray from a minimum of 1 inch (25mm) to a maximum of
14 inches (355mm) (figure G).
• A commonly used method for spraying a large surface is the
“crisscross” pattern. This is done by spraying in horizontal strips
and then crossing over these strips with vertical strips.
• To get an even spray distribution, always keep your arm at the
same distance (figure G) from the surface you are spraying and
avoid moving your wrist (figure H).
• Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help avoid
inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has begun and
release trigger before stopping the pass.
• Avoid spraying too heavily in any one area. Several lighter
coats are better than one heavy coat which can lead to running
and dripping. Remember that the flow control knob regulates the
amount of liquid that can be sprayed. Turning the flow knob
clockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning the knob
counterclockwise decreases the flow of liquid. If runs or drips do
occur, have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth them out.
• Turn the power unit off when not spraying for any length of time.
