WARNING! ENSURE THE TOOL IS TURNED OFF
AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING
OPERATIONS.

Thinning Paints
Surface preparation and proper paint thinning are the two most
important steps for best results. Ensure all surfaces are free of dust,
dirt and grease.
The airbrush kit comes with a spare
paint pot and lid that can be used for
mixing or thinning the paint until the
desired colour and viscosity is achieved.
Follow the paint manufacturer’s guide
for thinning and mixing ratios. Use
the appropriate thinning agent for paints.
Water based paints can be thinned using water.
1. Before mixing any paint or thinners, work out how much of each
substance is needed.
2. Pour the required amount of
paint into the paint pot.
3. Pour the necessary amount of
thinner into the paint pot.
4. Thoroughly mix the paint and thinning
agent in the paint pot and then attach
the lid securely.
Note: Refer to the troubleshooting section if there are issues with the
paint spread.
Variable Trigger
1. Press and hold the variable trigger down.
This allows air to start owing through the
airbrush.
2. Pull the variable trigger backwards to
allow paint to be sprayed.
Note: The further back the variable
trigger is pulled, the more paint is
sprayed out of the airbrush.
3. Release the variable paint trigger to stop spraying.
Paint Regulator Screw
The paint regulator screw is a stop that holds the variable trigger
backwards. This allows a set amount of paint to be sprayed when the
trigger is depressed.
1. Loosen the regulator screw entirely for
full control over the amount of paint
sprayed.
2. Tighten the regulator screw until the
desired amount of paint is ejected
when the trigger is pressed down.
Note: Always test spray on a scrap piece of material every time an
adjustment is made to the settings.
Paint Pot Vent Hole
The paint pot lid with the intake nozzle
has a vent hole which allows air into
the pot. This enables uid to ow into
the airbrush. Ensure it is clean and not
blocked.
Nozzle Cap
Push the cap over the nozzle of the airbrush
when not in use to protect it.
Note: Avoid rotating the nozzle cap when
removing it, as this may unscrew the nozzle.

WARNING! THE AIRBRUSH CANNOT BE USED WITH
MATERIALS CONTAINING ABRASIVE SUBSTANCES,
GLAZES, CAUSTIC AND/OR ALKALINE
SUBSTANCES.

Starting The Air Compressor
1. Press the on/o󰀨 switch to the ‘I’
position to start the compressor.
Note: The air compressor is designed to
turn o󰀨 at 4bar and turn on when the air
pressure drops to 3bar.
2. To stop the unit, press the on/o󰀨 switch to the ‘0’ position.
WARNING! COMPRESSED AIR IS DANGEROUS.
NEVER POINT THE AIR OUTLET OF CONNECTED
ACCESSORIES AT ANY PART OF YOUR BODY OR
OTHER PEOPLE AND ANIMALS.
Checking The Safety Relief Valve
The safety relief valve has been set for the highest permitted
pressure of the tank. It is prohibited to adjust the safety relief valve or
to remove its seal. Check that the safety relief valve is in working
order before every use.
WARNING! WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND EAR
PROTECTION. KEEP YOUR FACE AWAY FROM THE
SAFETY VALVE WHEN CARRYING OUT THIS CHECK.
AIR WILL BE DISCHARGED AT HIGH PRESSURE.
DO NOT USE THE COMPRESSOR IF THE SAFETY
VALVE DOES NOT WORK AS DESCRIBED.
1. Turn the compressor on and let it run
until the switch o󰀨 pressure (4bar) is
reached.
2. Hold the ring on the safety relief
valve and pull it outwards. Air
should discharge from the valve.
3. When the ring on the safety relief valve is released, the air
discharge should stop.
Adjusting The Pressure
The airbrush has an operating pressure between 1-4bar. The
compressor pressure needs to be adjusted to suit this before
operating the airbrush.
The correct air pressure between this operating range will produce an
even spray pattern with little to no splatter.
1. Once the air compressor is switched
on, the pressure gauge will show the
regulated air pressure.
2. Lift the pressure regulator dial to
unlock it.
3. Perform a test spray onto a
scrap piece of material and
rotate the pressure regulator
dial until the desired setting
is achieved. Turning the dial
clockwise will increase the air
pressure, whilst turning it anti-
clockwise will decrease the air
pressure.
4. Keep adjusting the pressure regulator
dial until an even spray pattern with
little to no paint splatter is achieved.
5. Once the desired pressure is set,
press the regulator dial down and
twist it clockwise slightly to lock it in
position.

WARNING! THE POWER SUPPLY FOR THIS
PRODUCT SHOULD BE PROTECTED BY A
RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RATED AT 30mA OR
LESS).
WARNING! HOUSING SURFACE MAY GET HOT
DURING USE. DO NOT TOUCH THE HOUSING WHEN
HOT, ONLY HANDLE USING THE CARRY HANDLE
PROVIDED.

Painting Tips
1. Start spraying just before the start of the paint area and end just
after to ensure a consistent spray on the edges. Mask o󰀨 any
areas that you don’t want painted.
2. Move the spray gun along the surface at a steady pace whilst
maintaining the distance and angle to ensure an even coverage.
3. Overlap each pass over the paint area to achieve an even coating.
4. Airbrushing also has a range of techniques to obtain di󰀨erent
e󰀨ects. Below are some basic e󰀨ects which can be achieved by
varying the painting motion and distance from the workpiece.
Varying The Distance
Positioning the airbrush close
to the workpiece will produce a
small dense spray pattern.
Moving the airbrush further away
from the workpiece produces a
wide, faint pattern.
Angling The Airbrush
Holding the airbrush at an angle
to the workpiece produces a fan
shaped spray.

AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b.Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o󰀨-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o󰀨. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may a󰀨ect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations di󰀨erent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
