adjusting the Trigger Tension
Use the following procedure to adjust the spring tension of the
trigger lever on the gun holder assembly. The trigger lever pulls
and releases the spray gun trigger when operated from the spray
lever on the cart. The proper tension ensures that the gun will
shut off when the gun trigger is released. To ensure proper
tension, there should be approximately a 1/16" gap between the
trigger lever and the spray gun trigger.
IMPORTaNT: always keep the trigger lock on the spray
gun in the locked position while making adjustments to the
system. If necessary, loosen the gun holder clamp knob and
then engage the spray gun trigger lock. Move the spray gun
to its original position and tighten the clamp knob.
