Installation

1. Attach Fluid Cup: Securely attach the 1 qt (0.95 L) metal cup to the spray gun. Ensure it is tightened to prevent leaks. If using a turbine pressure cup, remove the standard fitting and attach the appropriate pressure cup fitting.
2. Raccordement de l'alimentation en air : Connect your air supply hose to the air inlet on the spray gun. The gun is designed for a maximum air pressure of 10 psi.
3. Remplir de matériau : Fill the fluid cup with the desired coating material (varnish, enamel, latex, stains). Ensure the material is properly thinned according to the coating manufacturer's recommendations for HVLP application.
4. Réglages initiaux :
   • Niveau de liquide : Use the dial on the gun to set the initial fluid level. Start with a lower setting and increase as needed.
   • Fan Pattern: Adjust the fan pattern by turning the air cap. This allows you to switch between horizontal, vertical, and round spray patterns.

Mode d'emploi

1. Essai de pulvérisation : Before applying to your workpiece, perform a test spray on a scrap piece of material to verify the spray pattern and fluid output. Adjust the fluid level and fan pattern as necessary.
2. Maintenir la distance : Hold the spray gun perpendicular to the surface, maintaining a consistent distance (typically 6-10 inches) for an even finish.
3. Mouvement constant : Use smooth, overlapping passes. Release the trigger at the end of each pass to avoid excessive material buildup.
4. Contrôle de la gâchette : The 2-finger trigger allows for comfortable and controlled application.

Entretien

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your spray gun.

• Nettoyage après utilisation :
  • Empty any remaining material from the cup.
  • Fill the cup with an appropriate cleaning solvent (water for latex, mineral spirits for oil-based paints, etc.).
  • Pulvérisez le solvant à travers le pistolet jusqu'à ce qu'il soit clair.
  • Disassemble the air cap and fluid tip, cleaning them thoroughly with a brush and solvent.
  • Essuyez l'extérieur de l'arme.
• Remplacement de l'aiguille : The needles can be swapped quickly. To replace, twist off the front section of the gun, push the release mechanism, and pull the needle out. Insert the new needle and reassemble. This process typically takes less than a minute.
• Stockage: Store the clean and dry spray gun in a safe place to prevent damage.

Dépannage

If you encounter issues with your spray gun, consider the following common solutions:

• Mauvaise pulvérisation : Check for clogged fluid tip or air cap. Ensure material is properly thinned. Verify air pressure is adequate (max 10 psi).
• No Material Flow: Check if the fluid cup is empty or if the fluid tube is clogged. Ensure the fluid needle is not stuck.
• Fuites : Inspect all connections for tightness. Check for damaged O-rings or seals and replace if necessary.
• Pulvérisation irrégulière : Ensure consistent air pressure. Check for blockages in the fluid path or air passages.
