Install the Spray Tip
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 13. Install the
spray tip and tip guard as explained in your separate
gun manual, supplied.
The fluid output and pattern width depend on the size of
the spray tip, the fluid viscosity, and the fluid pressure.
Use the Spray Tip Selection Chart in your gun instruc-
tion manual as a guide for selecting an appropriate
spray tip for your application.
