Prior to shipment, this gun was treated with an anticorrosive agent. Before using this gun make
sure that it is carefully flushed with thinner.
1. The position of the air cap (H) horns will determine the
spray pattern. Loosen (G) air cap and rotate horns to
achieve desired pattern. Tighten air cap.
2. Attach material cup to the gun. NOTE: The (F) material
filter supplied is optional to protect against contaminants
and small particles. See parts list for material filter
orientation.
3. Attach air supply line to 1/4 NPS air inlet.
NEVER point spray gun at self or any
other person. Accidental discharge of
material may result in serious injury.
4. Adjust air pressure at air compressor.
DO NOT exceed 60 psi.
5. Depress spray gun trigger fully to spray material. NOTE: Depressing trigger partially will
cause only air to be released.
Adjust spray gun:
a. Amount of material released (density of “fan spray”) is controlled by (D) fluid control
knob. Turn knob counterclockwise to increase, or clockwise to decrease, the fluid flow.
b. Width of “fan spray” is governed by (B) pattern adjustment knob. Turn knob counter-
clockwise to increase, or clockwise to decrease, air flow.
c. Air quantity is controlled by (C) air-volume control knob. Turn knob counterclockwise to
increase, or clockwise to decrease, the air flow.
NOTE: Care should be exercised when handling spray gun to avoid damage to the orifice of the
air cap and tip of fluid nozzle. Damage to these parts results in irregular spray patterns.
DO NOT ATTEMPT

that could render system unsafe. All
replacement components such as
hose or fittings must have a working
pressure equal to or greater than
system pressure.
