1. Explanation of symbols used
This symbol indicates a potential danger for you or for the device.
Under this symbol you can nd important information on how to
avoid injuries and damage to the device.
Danger of electrical shock
i
Indicates tips for use and other particularly useful information.
2. General Safety Instructions
Caution! Read all the instructions. Non-observance of the instructions below can cause
electric shock, re and or serious personal injuries. The term "power tool" used
below covers both mains-operated power tools (with mains lead) and
accumulator-operated power tools (without mains lead).
1. Safety at the workplace
a) Keep your workplace clean and well lit. Disorder or unlit workplaces may result in
accidents.
b) Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain ammable liquids, gases
or dusts. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite the dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other persons away when using the power tool. You can
lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The tool plug must t into the socket.The plug may not be modied in any form.
Do not use adaptor plugs together with protective-earthed tools. Unmodied
plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating elements,
stoves and refrigerators. The risk through electric shock increases if your body is
earthed.
c)
Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture. The risk of an electric shock
increases if water penetrates electrical equipment.
d) Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool by the lead, hanging it from
the lead or by pulling on the lead to remove the plug. Keep the lead away from

3
W 690 Flexio Extra Spray Kit AUS
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving tool parts. Damaged or twisted leads increase the
risk of an electric shock.
e) If you work outdoors with a power tool, only use extension cables suitable for
outdoor use. The use of an extension lead that is suitable for outdoors reduces the risk
of an electric shock.
f)
If you cannot avoid using the tool in a damp environment, use a residual current
operated circuit-breaker. Using a residual current operated circuit-breaker avoids the
risk of electric shock.
g)
It is recommended that the tool always be supplied via a residual current device
having a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
3. Safety of Persons
a) Be attentive. Pay attention to what you are doing and work sensibly with a
power tool. Do not use the tool if you are tired or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. Just a moment of inattentiveness while using the tool can lead
to serious injuries.
b)
Wear personal safety equipment and always wear safety goggles Wearing
personal protective equipment, such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet
or ear protection, depending on the type of power tools, reduces the risk of injury.
c)
Avoid accidental starting-up. Make sure that the electric tool is switched o
before you connect it to the power supply, pick it up or carry it. Accidents can
occur if you carry the power tool while your nger is on the switch or if you connect the
power tool to the power supply which it is on.
d) Remove setting tools or wrenches before switching on the power tool. A tool
or wrench that is in a rotating tool part can lead to injuries.
e)
Avoid an unnatural posture. Ensure that you are standing securely and have your
balance at all times. This ensures that you can control the tool better in unexpected
situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g)
Do not lull yourself into a false sense of security and do not think yourself above
the safety rules for electric tools, even if you are familiar with the electric tool
following extensive practical experience. Careless use can lead to serious injuries
in fractions of a second.

4
W 690 Flexio Extra Spray Kit
AUS
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool designed for the work that you
are doing. You work better and safer in the specied performance range if you use the
suitable power tool.
b)
Do not use power tools whose switch is defective. A power tool that cannot be
switched on or o is dangerous and has to be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out tool settings, changing
accessories or putting the tool away. This precautionary measure prevents
unintentional starting of the tool.
d) Store unused power tools so that they are inaccessible to children. Do not let
persons use the tool who are not familiar with it or who have not read these
instructions. Power tools are dangerous when they are used by inexperienced persons.
e) Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the moving parts function
trouble-free and do not jam, whether parts are broken or damaged so that
the tool function is impaired. Have damaged parts repaired before using the
tool. Many accidents have their origin in power tools that have been maintained badly.
f)
Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in accordance with these
instructions and in a fashion specied for this special tool type.Take the working
conditions and the activity to be carried out into consideration. The use of power
tools for purposes other than the intended ones can lead to dangerous situations.
g)
Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free of oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grip surfaces hamper safe operation and control of the electric tool in
unforeseen situations.
5. Service
a) Have your tool repaired only by qualied specialist personnel and only with
original spare parts. This ensures that the tool safety is maintained.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or it’s
service agent or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a safety hazard.
3. Safety Instructions for Spray Guns
CAUTION! Wear breathing equipment: Paint mist and solvent vapors are damaging to
health. Always wear breathing equipment and only work in well ventilated rooms or
using supplementary ventilating equipment. It is advisable to wear working clothing,
safety glasses, ear protection and gloves.

5
W 690 Flexio Extra Spray Kit AUS
CAUTION: Danger of injury! Never point the spray stream towards human
beings or animals.
Sockets and plugs must be masked. Risk of an electric shock as a
consequence of sprayed material entering the socket!
Attention! Never operate the device if the nozzle seal is either
damaged or missing. If the nozzle seal is either missing or damaged
liquids can enter the device and increase the risk of an electric shock.
Check the nozzle seal before each use and tighten the union nut.
•
Do not use the spray guns to spray ammable substances.
•
The spray guns are not to be cleaned with ammable solvents.
•
Caution against dangers that can arise from the sprayed substance and observe the
text and information on the containers or the specications given by the substance
manufacturer.
•
Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential.
•
The device may not be used in workplaces covered by the explosion-protection
regulations.
•
To avoid the hazard of explosion when spraying, provide for eective natural or articial
ventilation.
•
There must be no sources of ignition such as, for example, open res, smoke of lit
cigarettes, cigars and tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces, etc. in the
vicinity during spraying.
•
Ensure that no solvent vapors are sucked in by the unit. Do not spray onto the unit!
•
The spray gun is not a toy; children must therefore not be allowed to handle it or play
with it.
•
Before working on the spray gun remove the power plug from the socket.
•
Cover areas that are not to besprayed.When working keep in mind that wind, for example,
may transport paint mist over great distances and cause damage.
•
The units may only be used with a functional valve. If paint rises in the ventilating hose
(Fig. 1, item 17) do not operate the unit further! Dismantle and clean the ventilating
hose, valve and diaphragm and replace the diaphragm if necessary.
•
Do not lay the spray gun.
With original WAGNER accessories and spare parts, you have the guarantee that all
safety regulations are fullled.

Coating Materials Suitable for Use Spray attachment
Low-viscosity coating substances:
Water- and solvent-based paints, nishes,
primers and wood sealer-preservatives
Gravity
Interior and exterior water based acrylic
wall, ceiling and fence paints, primers
and undercoats.
Wall Extra I-Spray
Coating Materials Not Suitable for Use
Materials that contain highly abrasive components, facade paint, caustic solutions and
acidic coating substances. Flammable materials.

7
W 690 Flexio Extra Spray Kit AUS
6. Preparation of the workplace (for interior wall paint)
Sockets and plugs must be masked. Risk of an electric shock as a
consequence of sprayed material entering the socket!
Mask all the areas and objects that are not to be spray painted, or
remove them from the work area. No liability is assumed for damage
due to overspray. Silicate paint corrodes glass and ceramic surfaces
upon contact! All such surfaces must therefore be completely covered.
iPay attention to the quality of the adhesive tape used.
Do not use excessively strong adhesive tape on wallpaper and painted
surfaces, in order to avoid damaging these surfaces when removing the
tape. Remove adhesive tape slowly and evenly; do not use jerky movements.
Do not leave adhesive tape on surfaces any longer than necessary, in order
to minimise the possibility of residues when removing.
Also observe the adhesive tape manufacturer's instructions.
7. Preparation of the Coating Material
•
Mix the material well in the original container. When using interior wall paint, an
agitator is recommended.
i
W 690 has been developed for use with all conventional paints in their undiluted
form. If the surface is smooth and the paint you are using is very thick and
gel-like, dilute it by 10%. Dilution can be necessary if the atomisation is
coarse or if the ow rate is too low even at the maximum setting.
Detailed information about the various materials and the maximum permitted
dilution can be found on the manufacturers' technical data sheets (e.g. available
on the Internet).
iSpray material that is at least at room temperature provides a better spray
result.
8. Start-up
Before connecting to the mains supply, be sure that the supply voltage is identical with
the value given on the rating plate.
Put the machine down only on a level, clean surface. Otherwise, the gun may suck in
dust, etc.
1. Attach the carrying strap to the unit. (Fig. 2)
2. Mount the air hose (Fig. 3, A + B). Insert the air hose rmly into the connection of the
unit and the gun handle.

3. Unscrew the container from the spray gun.
4.
Aligning suction tube. (Fig. 4)
If the suction tube is positioned correctly, the container contents can be sprayed
without almost any residue.
When spraying horizontal surfaces, turn suction tube forward. (Fig. 4 A)
When spraying objects overhead, turn suction tube back. (Fig. 4 B)
5. Set the container on a sheet of paper, pour in the prepared coating material and screw
the container tightly onto the spray gun.
6. Connect the front part with the rear part of the gun. (Fig. 5)
Gravity spray attachment
7. Insert the container in the gun body and secure by turning with the bayonet lock.
(Fig. 6)
8. Connect the front part with the rear part of the gun. (Fig. 5)
9. Place the gun with the pedestal folded out on an even surface.
iOnly ll the container once it is attached to the gun, otherwise the coating
material will leak out.
10. Pour the prepared coating material into the container.
11. Close the container with the cover.
12. Attach the valve hoses to the container cover and gun body. (Fig. 7)
iThe enclosed practice poster is ideal for familiarising yourself with
operation of the spray gun. After trying out the rst spray coatings, it
makes sense to test it further on cardboard or a similar surface in order
to nd out the right ow rate of paint and air for the best spray pattern.
Detailed information about these settings can be found in chapter
9-13.
9. Selecting the Spray Setting (Gravity spray
attachment)
WARNING! Dangerof injury!Neverpull the triggerguardwhile adjusting
the air cap.
With the union nut (g. 8, 1) slightly unscrewed, turn the air cap (2) to the desired
spraysetting position (arrow). Then tighten the union nut.

Use the red adjustment lever to also switch between a wide
( ) and a narrow ( ) spray jet.
11. Adjusting the Material Volume
(Gravity spray attachment) (Fig. 12)
Set the material volume by turning the regulator on the trigger guard of the spray gun.
- turn to the left  lower material volume
+ turn to the right higher material volume
12. Adjusting the Material Volume
(Wall Extra I-Spray spray attachment)
The volume of material can be set by turning the material volume control (Fig. 13, 1) in
steps from 1 (minimum) to 12 (maximum).

10
W 690 Flexio Extra Spray Kit
AUS
13. Setting the Amount of Air (Fig. 14)
Depending on the viscosity of the material to be sprayed and the nish of the object to
be coated, it may be advisable to vary the amount of air.Very low viscosity materials, such
as watery glazes do not have to be atomised with the maximum amount of air.
This also applies for the use of the Detail and Corner&Reach spray attachment (accessory).
- turn to the right  lower amount of air
+ turn to the left  higher amount of air
14. Spray Technique
i
The spray result depends heavily on the smoothness and cleanliness of the
surface to be sprayed.Therefore the surface should be carefully prepared and
kept free of dust.
•
Cover all surfaces not to be sprayed.
iImportant: Start at the edge of the area to be sprayed. Start the spray
movement rst of all, and then press the trigger. Avoid interruptions
within the area to be sprayed.
•
The spray movement should come from the arm, not just from the wrist.This ensures that
a uniform distance is maintained between the spray gun and the spray surface during
the spray operation. Select a distance of 5 - 15 cm, depending on the desired spray jet
width. When you are using interior wall paint, the distance should be about 20-30 cm
(approx. one stirring rod in length).
Fig. 15 A/ 15 B: CORRECT Even distance to the object.
Fig. 15 B: INCORRECT An uneven distance will result in uneven paint
application.
i"Cross spray" when using paint with a poor covering capacity or if the
surface is highly absorbent (Fig. 16).
iInterior wall paint in strong colour shades should be applied at least twice
(allow rst paint coat to dry rst). This will ensure good coverage.
15. Taking Out of Operation and Cleaning
