not allow the hose to flatten where it is hot near the air outlet.
•Never leave machine unattended. Keep away from children or any person not
familiar with the spray machine.
•Tanning solution can discolour light coloured hair and fabrics. Cover anything that
could be affected.
•Do not use any adapters with this product.
•Use only a three-wire extension cord with a 3-slot receptacle like the plug on the
machine. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to select the cord that can support required current supply
to the machine.
•An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in the line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. If in doubt use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the wire thickness. Please use the chart below as a
guide to selecting the proper size extension cord.

SAFETY & WARNINGS

Electrical Grounding
•This machine should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current.
•This machine is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire and an
appropriate grounding plug.
•The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded by
all local codes and ordinances.
•Do not operate the machine with a damaged cord or plug.
•Do not pull or carry the machine by the cord. Keep away from heated surfaces. Do
not pull to unplug.
•Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if in doubt as to whether the
product has been properly grounded.
•Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet

OVERVIEW

1. Attach the threaded end of the Air Hose to the Turbine System’s air outlet.
2. Connect the other end of the Air Hose to the Spray Gun.
Adjusting Flow Control Knob
The Fluid Control Knob is found at the rear of the gun. It controls the amount of solution
that is sprayed through the nozzle. To find the optimal setting for the Fluid Control Knob,
follow the below instructions:
1. Turn the knob in the clockwise direction so that only air is coming out of the gun. Then
turn the knob counter-clockwise slightly to start the flow of spray.
2. In each turn, test the spray on a white sheet or towel to check the amount of solution
coming out of the nozzle. Keep doing this until you have a very fine, even “mist” and a
light tan colour is showing on your towel.
3. Turn the knob clockwise for less solution and counter-clockwise for more solution. The
further you pull the spray gun trigger, the further the needle inside the gun is retracted
and the more solution comes out. About a 5 millimetres trigger pull is ideal.
Setting Spray Pattern
You can adjust the air cap of the Spray Gun to three positions.
•To produce a horizontal pattern for spraying across.
•To produce a vertical pattern for spraying up and down
•To produce a round pattern to spray small areas such as arms or the face.
ASSEMBLY
OPERATION

Turbine System
The Turbine System has one air hose outlet on the side of the unit and is designed to run
one spray gun.
The turbine will pump the required air flow to apply the “Dihydroxyacetone (DHA)” solution.
This turbine will provide air flow at a rate over 35 CFM at 3.5 PSI. A full body spray tan can
be achieved in less than 2 minutes,
You can replace the turbine pumps filter. The filter is reusable. To clean, rinse under water
and allow to air dry before using it again.
Testing and Adjusting the Spray Machine
1. Ensure you have assembled the machine as per the Assembly section of this user
guide.
2. If you are the recipient of the spray, ensure there is another person to help you
operate the machine.
3. Remove the bottle from the gun. For this first test, add clean water into the bottle
and attach it onto the gun.
4. Connect Turbine System to a power outlet. Press the On/Off button to turn on the
machine. This provides a continuous source of clean, warm, dry, low-pressure
turbine air.
5. Adjust the air cap on the gun. Turn the Fluid Control Knob all the way in clockwise
direction.
6. Aim the gun towards a sink, towel, or another receptacle to collect the water and
pull the trigger. While the gun is triggered and air and water are flowing, you can
twist the Fluid Control Knob in the counter-clockwise direction to trigger the flow of
solution.
7. Turn the knob in counter-clockwise direction one or two times to produces a round
pattern. Turn it for two or three times to produce a tall, oval pattern. Test this by
spraying on paper as you make your final adjustments.
Notes:
•The optimum adjustment for the Fluid Control Knob is one or two turns in
counter-clockwise direction. Adjusting it all the way in that direction may stop
the flow of solution from the gun.
•If you turn the Fluid Control Knobs in the counter-clockwise direction beyond
the point of maximum trigger, you may remove the knob assembly from the
spray gun body. If this happens, simply press the knob assembly back in
against the spring pressure, align the threads and turn clockwise to a normal
adjustment position.

Pre-Spray Checklist for the Machine Operator
Ensure the following pre-requisites are met before you begin to spray:
•Proper Ventilation: To minimise the effects of any over-spray, a good airflow and an
extraction system should be used.
•Over-Spray Protection: Portable or fixed overspray tent which can be washed down
periodically should be used. We recommend you use the HVLP Spray Tan Machine
Tent (ESSPRTANMT- BOX2) from Kogan.com
•Lighting: It is essential to have good lighting. A bulb is recommended.
•Accessories: Ensure that you have your spray tanning accessories within easy reach.
Some accessories may include a small sink, latex sponges, hand towels, barrier cream,
rubber gloves, masks, moisturiser, wet-wipes, and baby powder.
Useful Tips
For Spray Machine Operator
•Keep your tanning solution chilled at 4 to 8 degree Celsius (not frozen) to ensure that
the DHA does not deteriorate.
•Spray in a well-lit and well-ventilated area. Use about 30 – 50 millilitres of solution for
single use.
•Ensure you have shaved desired areas before the spray.
•Ensure you are wearing latex gloves
For Spray Recipient
•Shower and exfoliate to eliminate dead skin cells.
•If possible, apply nail polish to prevent the nails discolouration by the solution.
•Wear appropriate clothes while getting sprayed.
•Wear loose-fitting clothes after the spray session. This clothing will be less likely to
scratch the treated skin surface. Wearing wool, nylon or silk is not recommended.
•The clothes might get stained by the tanning solution. Wash all clothes after use.
•Do not apply lotions, creams, makeup, or other products to the skin before application.
Do not wear jewellery which could block the tanning solution from penetrating or cause
an uneven application.
•Tie up your hair to keep it away from face and neck. This will help you in the even
application of the solution.
•It will take a few hours for the tan to set. Do not shower for at least 8 hours.
•Do not sweat or carry out any strenuous activity.
•During the first shower the cosmetic bronzer will wash off. This is normal.
•After few days of application, tan may begin to fade. Moisturise regularly to slow it
down.

Spraying the Tanning Solution
1. Test the spray gun by spraying a small quantity into a waste basket or sink to ensure
the solution is flowing properly.
2. Ensure the recipient is standing on a bathmat, towel, or rug.
3. To spray on the face, ensure the recipient has closed eyes and head tilted slightly.
Begin spraying the face with a light coat moving down to the neck and then to the
chest. If starting with the face makes you or the recipient uncomfortable, reverse this
first step to: chest, neck and then face.
4. Once this area is complete, spray the abdominal region.
5. Continue spraying the solution at the recipient’s legs front and to the feet. When
spraying the front of the legs, have the recipient place one foot out to allow you to
spray the inside of the leg.
6. Alternate the outstretched foot to allow the application to all areas of the legs. Ask the
recipient to turn to spray the outside and inside of arm and side of the neck.
7. Ask the recipient to turn to their back. Continue spraying at the back of the legs. Where
necessary, ask the recipient to bend or stretch to allow an even application.
8. Once you are confident that you have covered all areas of the recipient, it is a good
idea to apply an additional spray to the face and then examine all areas for sparse or
excess coverage.
9. If the solution is dripping, stop it with a towel and spray a small amount to even out the
application.
10. After the spraying is complete, turn on a fan in the spraying room or blow dry air from
the gun. This will accelerate the drying process.
11. Ensure the recipient does not lower the arms or press their thighs together until the
sprayed solution is dry.
12. If the recipient feels stickiness you may use a makeup brush dipped in “Cornstarch”
based baby powder to lightly dab the sticky areas. Do not use talcum powder.

•Rinse the fluid cup attached to the gun and wash it with clear water.
•It is not necessary to empty and clean your spray gun when you pause between
applications. However, ensure to clean your spray gun thoroughly at the end of your
work session.
•Ensure you refrigerate your tanning solution to avoid premature spoiling.
•Examine the front nozzle of the gun to ensure that there is no residual solution that
could obstruct or diminish the fine atomisation of the solution for the next use.
•If necessary, clean the nozzle with the cleaning solution and a small brush such as a
toothbrush or nail brush.
•Remove the fluid cup and spray until only dry air comes from the gun. Wipe off the
outside of the gun, rinse out the fluid cup.
•Check the intake air filter on the Turbine System to ensure that it is free of lint, hair,
tanning solution residue or other obstructions that could choke the free flow of air into
the Turbine System.
•Make sure that the air hose, Turbine System, and cord are out of the walkway and the
mat is cleaned and washed.
•Ensure you have Pro Tanning Solution and Pro Tanning Cleaner.
•Keep the Turbine Pump intake filter clean.
•Ensure to re-apply the tan after 48 hours or so for the optimum tan.
