Operation
Select a Spray Tip
Use the Spray Tip Selection charts on page 18, as a
guide for selecting an appropriate spray tip for your
application. The fluid output and pattern width
depend on the size of the spray tip, the fluid viscosity,
and the fluid pressure.
NOTE: When spraying very low viscosity fluids, use
the optional fluid needle 220-413 (see page 15). The
standard needle may not provide positive shut off for
such fluids.
Install a Spray Tip
To reduce the risk of a fluid injection injury, Always
before removing or installing a spray tip.
Install a spray tip in the gun. The air cap and spray tip
position determines the direction of the spray pattern.
Rotate the air cap (the spray tip rotates with it) as
needed for the desired spray pattern direction. See
Fig. 2.
Adjust the Spray Pattern & Apply the Fluid
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury, including fluid
injection, and splashing in the eyes or on the skin:
1. Never point the spray gun at anyone or any part
of the body or put your hand or fingers over the
spray tip when adjusting the spray pattern or
spraying fluid.
2. Always engage the trigger safety latch when you
stop spraying. See Fig. 3.
3. Never exceed the maximum air and fluid work-
ing pressure of the lowest rated component in
your system. See System Pressure in the
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD Section on
page 5.
1. Set the fluid pressure at 300 psi (21 bar).
2. Trigger the gun to check the atomization: do not
be concerned about the pattern shape yet.
