OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
(External Mix Air Nozzle Application)
1. Connect hose as shown in above diagram.
2. Fill cup with strained fluid mixed in accordance with
manufacturer’s recommendations on label of contain-
er. Fasten cover securely.
3. Close air adjusting valve by turning clockwise. Set air
pressure at oil and water extractor (transformer) to
between 35 and 80 PSI, depending upon atomization
desired.
4. Set regulator on pressure cup to approximately 10 PSI
for enamels; 5 PSI for lacquers. (Turn knob clockwise
to increase pressure, counterclockwise to reduce
pressure.)
5. Open air adjusting valve.
6. With trigger fully pulled back, make several fast spray
strokes against a flat surface. After adjustment of pres-
sure, proper atomization will be indicated by an even
distribution of finely divided paint particles.
7. Always release air in cup by momentarily opening air
release valve on cover when attempting to reduce
pressure.
IMPORTANT:
The most efficient atomization air pressure is the lowest
air pressure that will properly atomize the paint. This will
minimize the overspray, deposit more paint on the surface
and eliminate paint waste.
If a faster coverage is necessary, first increase fluid pres-
sure and then adjust atomization air pressure. If a slower
coverage is more desirable, first reduce the fluid pressure
and then adjust atomization air pressure. Always attempt
to maintain the lowest pressures for maximum efficiency.
For ease of removing cup cover and to prevent leakage,
always thoroughly grease the threads on the cup.
CAUTION
If the cup (1) is accidentally tipped over or held at too great
an angle, fluid will load up the underside of cup cover (4) and
leak into regulator assembly (11). In the event this happens,
CLEAN IMMEDIATELY.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
(Internal Mix Air Nozzle Application)
The internal mix air nozzle accomplishes atomization by
mixing the air and fluid within the air nozzle. Note: The
steps are the same as with external mix nozzles except
the air and fluid pressure settings are different.
1. Close air adjusting valve by turning clockwise.
2. Set air pressure at oil and water extractor (transformer)
to approximately 45 PSI.
3. Open air adjusting valve and allow air to enter the gun.
4. Set fluid pressure at 20 lbs. and adjust higher or lower
until desired atomization is effected. Air pressure
should be alternately adjusted.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Open air release valve (5) on pressure cup cover (4).
2. Loosen cup cover (4) and set fluid tube(2) on angle in
cup (1).
3. Loosen air nozzle (on gun) two turns, place cloth over
nozzle and pull trigger to force paint into cup (1).
4. Remove cover (4), clean cup (1) and cover thoroughly.
5. With approximately 1/4 to 1/2 cup of clean solvent,
attach cover (4) and set fluid pressure at approximate-
ly 10 PSI.
6. Close air adjusting valve at spray gun.
7. Trigger gun and allow solvent to flow into a container
until it flows clear.
8. Remove solvent; then clean air nozzle. If any dirt
appears in orifice, clean with toothpick; wire will
damage nozzle. Blow nozzle and cup dry. Loosely
replace cover and nozzle.

CAUTION
Never allow solvent to remain in cup (1); solvent vapors tend
to reduce service life of gasket (3). Separate storage of cup
and cover recommended.
