Getting Started
Use a piece of scrap cardboard to practice these
basic spraying techniques before you begin spray-
ing the surface.
Hold gun 12 in. (30 cm) from surface and aim
straight at surface. Tilting gun to direct spray
angle causes an uneven finish.
Flex wrist to keep gun pointed straight. Fanning
gun to direct spray at angle causes uneven fin-
ish.
Triggering Gun
Pull trigger after starting stroke. Release trigger
before end of stroke. Gun must be moving when
trigger is pulled and released.
Aiming Gun
Aim tip of gun at bottom edge of previous stroke,
overlapping each stroke by half.
Unclogging Spray Tip
To avoid fluid splashback:
Never pull gun trigger when arrow-shaped han-
dle is between SPRAY and UNCLOG positions.
Tip must be pushed all the way into guard.
1. To UNCLOG tip obstruction,
engage trigger lock.
2. Point arrow-shaped
handle backward to
UNCLOG position.
3. Aim gun at piece of
scrap or cardboard.
4. Unlock trigger lock. Pull trig-
ger to clear clog.
5. When obstruction is
cleared, engage trigger
lock and rotate
arrow-shaped handle
back to SPRAY position.
Point the arrow-shaped handle on the spray tip
forward to SPRAY and backward to UNCLOG
obstructions.
