SMART SELECT NOZZLE SELECTION - (FIGURE G)
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 G).
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 G1).
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.
FLOW CONTROL KNOB - (FIGURE H, H1)
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. The flow
indicator on the top of the sprayer moves forward
(minimal liquid flow) and backward (maximum liquid
flow) as the knob is turned.
TIP: Always test the spray pattern on scrap
cardboard or similar material first. Begin with flow
control knob on the highest flow setting. If less flow
is desired, dial the flow control knob in. Heavier,
thicker materials should be sprayed with the indicater
close to the (+) icon. Thinner materials should be
sprayed with the indicater close to the (-) icon.
NOTE: If the flow control setting is set completely
to the minimum side, as shown in figure H1, the
trigger will have limited or no travel. Back the flow control knob off (clockwise) to allow for more trigger travel.
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 I).
• 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.
