COLANI, with suction feed and side fitting glass colour container
1. Loosen the glass colour container by slightly turning it and gently pulling it
away from the airbrush body.
2. Replace the glass colour container by pushing it firmly back into the tape-
red connection.
Taking care of your airbrush
Keep your airbrush clean by removing paint before it dries. Dried paint on the
nozzle, air cap, needle, and control lever mechanism should be removed using
the appropriate thinners, a brush and a Q-Tip.
Never place the complete airbrush into thinners.
Regularly oil the operation lever mechanism and needle near the lever by using
thin oil.
Keep the needle point and air jet free of any oil or grease, as oil an grease can
affect the spray quality.
Regularly check the needle condition, as a bent needle not only affects the
spray quality but can easily damage the nozzle.
The nozzle is manufactured from the finest quality materials, but should
behandled carefully as it is manufactured to very high tolerances.
The enclosed universal wrench (graph 2) is designed for the following functi-
ons:
To release and tighten the air pipe (1).
The air pipe, including the handle, must be detached so that, if necessary, you
can operate the unit without the handle.
Adjusting the screw for the needle seal (1).
If paint should leak from the needle seal and travel along the needle to the
levers, the screw on the needle seal will need to be adjusted carefully.
To release and tighten the button screws (1).
The button (level) must be removed so that you can reach the screw on the
needle seal.
Adjusting the preliminary air screw using the small pin on the wrench (2).
The manufacturer has set the unit so that when the level is pulled back, 30 -
40 % of air is released before the paint flow continues. However, this default
setting can be adjusted as required by turning this priming air screw.
