•
Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help avoid inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has
b
egun 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 counterclockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning the knob clockwise decreases the flow of liquid. If
runs or drips do occur, have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth them out.
WARNING: E
LECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD. When spraying overhead, never tip the sprayer more than
4
5 degrees. The material being sprayed could leak into the motor housing.
TIP: If the atomizer valve is not seated prop-
erly, spray material will leak from behind the
spray nozzle. If
material is leaking, turn off and unplug
sprayer from power source immediately.
Follow these steps to correct the problem:
• Check that the sprayer is unplugged from the
power source. Remove the spray nozzle by
turning counterclockwise (figure J). For the fan
nozzle, remember to push and turn counter-
clockwise to remove.
• Remove the atomizer and check to see if it
needs to be cleaned or replaced. Also check
inside the pump housing for any debris or
obstruction and clean if necessary (figure J1).
• Replace the atomizer valve making sure it
seats properly (figure J2).
• Thread the spray nozzle back onto the
sprayer by turning clockwise
(figure J3).
