WARNING: Spray materials may be harmful if inhaled or
allowed to come into contact with the skin or eyes. Consult the
product label and Material Safety Data Sheet supplied for the
spray materials being used. Follow all safety precautions. Use
equipment in Well Ventilated Area to remove flammable or
explosive fumes, dust or overspray. Regular maintenance
checks for material residue must be performed to remove any
fire or explosion hazard. Exhaust fans should be checked for
build-up and kept clean. Filters must be changed frequently
and disposed of properly. Never use glass containers.

LFC
Flock Gun
with Quart Aluminum Cup
PERATING INSTRUCTI NS & REPLACEMENT PARTS
FL CK GUN USES:
Flock is being used for decorative purposes and functional
applications. New uses are being discovered daily in
utilizing this finishing material.
When flock is applied to toys, novelties, printed matter,
scenic backgrounds and window displays, the velour finish
is attractive and lasting.
Flock is employed for sound-deadening, as a build-up for
shock absorption, for felt like non-mar surface protection
and for gasket seal.
Flock is cotton, wool, rayon or other natural or synthetic
fibers cut to the lengths of 1/64", 1/32" or 1/16". Longer
fibers are not recommended for the LFC Flock Gun. The
binder or adhesive is a silk screen process color or a
special adhesive. Both flock and binder are obtainable at
leading paint supply stores. Binder colors vary from the
deepest black to delicate pastel shades. For good matches
binder colors should be the same shade as flock used. By
varying binder shades, novel tones can be obtained.
DIRECTIONS . . .
1. Before connecting air hose from air supply to air inlet of
flock gun, blow out airline to remove any moisture and
other foreign matter. For art, display and small production
flocking for which the LFC Flock Gun is designed, use
aasche’s DAir Compressor W/Switch. For high speed
work, a larger Air Compressor is required.
2. Fill cup three-quarters full with dry flock. Be sure it is
dry; damp flock will nest and may cause clogging of the
gun. For satisfactory operation of gun it is essential that
air be dry. To assure clean, dry air, a aasche R2-1/4M
Regulator & Condenser Unit with manual drain is
recommended.
3. Screw cup onto gun. Make sure gasket is in position
and screw cover is on tight.
4. Adjust LF-61 Fan Guard for round or fan spray.
5. Start Air Compressor, open air line valve, pull trigger.
6. For spray adjustment, the LF-72 DIAL controls the
amount of air blowing flock through the multiplehead,
and the ajitator tube. Turn the dial all the way down until
it stops, then turn it counterclockwise until desired flow
is achieved.
7. When applying the flock, direct the spray at several
different angles to obtain good coverage. Release trigger
at end of each stroke to save material and assure uniform
coverage.
O ERATION SUGGESTIONS . . .
Binder may be applied with models HG-08 and KRG-14
Spray Guns or L Sprayer. They assure uniform
application of material.
For economic, sanitary and safety reasons, a CB or FB
Ventilating Flock Reclaiming Booth should be used for
recovering unused flock and removing dust and fumes as
illustrated in aasche’s Industrial Catalog.
