4.2. COUPLINGS
 Vibrationmaycausefailureifaquickchangecouplingisconnecteddirectlytothespraygun.Toovercomethis,connect 
 aleaderhosetothespraygun.Aquickchangecouplingmaythenbeusedtoconnecttheleaderhosetotheairlinerecoilhose 
 (gs.1and2).
5. OPERATION
5.1.  Forbestresults,thegunshouldbeheldperpendiculartothesurfacebeingsprayedandmovedparalleltoit.Startthestrokebefore
 squeezingthetriggerandreleasethetriggerbeforenishingthestroke.Thiswillenableaccuratecontrolofthegunandmaterial
 (g.3B).
5.2. Spray from a distance of about 6 to 10 inches (150 to 250mm) depending on the material and the atomizing pressure. The material
 depositedshouldalwaysbeevenandwet.Eachstrokemustoverlaptheprecedingstroketoobtainauniformnish.Toreduce 
 over-sprayandobtainmaximume󰀩ciency,spraywiththelowestpossibleatomizingairpressure.
5.3.  Controllingthefansprayandtheuid.
 a) Usetheneedle(paint)adjustmentknob(g.4.2)toadjusttheamountofpaintow.
 b) Theatomizingairowiscontrolledbythecontrolknob(g.4.1).
 c) Thevolumeofairinputiscontrolledbytheadjustmentknob(g.4.3).
d) As width of spray is increased more material must pass through the gun to obtain the same coverage on the increased
area.
 e) Turntheairnozzle(g.4.4)toachieveahorizontalorverticalfanspray.Lockthenozzlewithretainingring(g.4.5).
  Thespraypatternofthegunisvariablefromroundtoatwithallpatternsinbetween.Innormaloperation,thewingson
  thenozzlearehorizontal(g.5).Thisprovidesaverticalfan-shapedpatternwhichgivesmaximum,uniformandeven 
  coveragewhenmovingthegunbackandforth,paralleltotheworksurface(g.6).

6.1.4. Wipe the outside of the gun with a dampened solvent rag.
6.1.5. If there is a need to probe the holes in the nozzles, ensure a tool that is softer than brass is utilised, under no circumstances use a
 metaltool,astheslightestamountofdamagewilladverselya󰀨ectthespraypattern.
6.1.6. Adjusttheuidneedlevalvesothatwhenthegunistriggered,airowoccursbeforeuidow.
6.1.7. Takecarewhenre-assembling.Screwpartshandtighttoavoidcross-threading.Ifapartcannoteasilybeturnedbyhand,check
that it is the correct part, or unscrew it, realign and retry. DO NOTuseexcessiveforcewhenre-assembling.
6.1.8. Whenchangingthenozzlesize,ensurethecompletenozzlesetistted.Thisconsistsofaircap,uidnozzleandpaintneedle. 

7. TROUBLESHOOTING
Afaultysprayisusuallycausedbyimpropercleaningordriedmaterialaroundtheuidnozzletiporintheairnozzle.Ifcleaningisrequired,
removethesepartsandsoaktheminsolvent.Thiswillsoftenthedriedmaterialwhichcanthenberemovedwithabrushoracloth.
Thesepartsarecarefullymachinedandanydamagetothemwillcauseafaultyspray.Ifeithertheairnozzleoruidnozzlearedamaged,they
must be replaced before a perfect spray can be obtained.

Dried material in a side port restricts passage of air.
Greater flow of air from the clean side port forces a fan
pattern in the direction of the clogged side.
Dried material around the outside of the fluid nozzle tip
restricts the passage of atomizing air at one point
through the centre opening of the air nozzle and results
in the pattern shown. This pattern can also be caused
by a loose air nozzle.
Material too thin or atomization air pressure too high.
Not enough paint in bottle.
Nozzleset/seatingdirty,damagedorlooselyinstalled.
Material bubbles or “boils” in paint
cup. Atomised air flowing through the paint channel to the
bottle. The paint nozzle is not sufficiently tight.
Air nozzle is not completely screwed on.
Tighten, clean or replace parts accordingly.
Dissolve material in the side ports with solvent, then blow the gun
clean.Donotpokeintothenozzleswithmetalinstruments.
Remove the air nozzle and wipe off fluid tip using a rag dampened
with solvent. Tighten the air nozzle.
Regulate material viscosity or reduce air pressure.
Refillbottle.Removethefluidnozzle,cleanthebackofthenozzle
and the nozzle seat using a cloth dampened with thinner. Refit the
nozzle and secure it tightly against the body.
If necessary replace nozzle set.
