Model H8115/H8117 Spray Gun -11-
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Spraying
The Model H8115/H8117 is designed to
spray liquids paints and lacquers that are
low viscosity or have been thinned down.
It is ideal for auto body touch-ups, wood-
working projects, and projects with hard to
reach areas.
To use your spray gun:
1. Read and follow the material manufac-
turer's instructions for spraying, mixing,
safety, disposal, and any other instruc-
tion on the label or Material Safety Data
Sheet (MSDS).
2. Ensure the cup is securely tightened
and all other fittings are secure to avoid
air leaks or material spills.
3. To start, set the inlet air pressure (the
air coming to the spray gun) to the low-
est pressure recommended in Tool
Data on Page 8 or to the material
manufacturer's recommendations. You
can adjust as necessary from there.
4. Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical or
horizontal. See Atomizing Cap and
Fan Adjustments on Page 13 for fur-
ther explanation.
5. Fill the cup with material.
6. Trial and error are necessary to achieve
the results you want along with a fair
amount of practice. Test your material
flow and spray pattern on a piece of
cardboard or scrap material similar to
your project.
