Spray Gun Handling
Do not point the spray gun at anyone or at any part
of the body.
Ensure appropriate air line filter is being used.
Water, oil, and debris in the air may cause damage to
the workpiece.
The spray gun should be held perpendicular to the work
surface and 6 to 12 inches from the work surface.
Keep the gun parallel to the work surface during the
stroke to ensure even coating. DO NOT move the gun in
an arc. This will result in a build up of paint in the
center of the stroke and a light coating at each end.
Start the gun moving prior to pulling the trigger and
release the trigger before stopping the gun movement.
Overlap strokes enough to get a uniform finish.
Fan Direction
Always turn off the air supply and disconnect the air
supply hose before installing, removing or adjusting
any accessory on this tool, or before performing any
maintenance on this tool.
OPERATIONS
(Dwg. TP2049)
(Dwg. TP2053)
The direction of the fan can be adjusted from horizontal
to vertical be loosening the lock ring and turning the air
cap to the proper location. Hand tighten lock ring after
adjustment.
Figure 1
Air Adjustment (If Applicable)
Open the air control knob (Figure 1) fully by turning
counter clockwise. Set desired air pressure using
regulator. Maximum pressure is 43 psig. If a lower air
pressure is desired for some parts of the spray job, turn
the air control knob clockwise as needed.
Pattern Control
The pattern control knob (Figure 1) adjusts the size of
the fan. A wide fan will result if the knob is fully opened
by turning it counterclockwise. As the knob is turned
clockwise, a smaller round pattern will be achieved.
Fluid Control
The fluid control knob (Figure 1) will adjust the
atomization of the paint. Turn the knob clockwise until
fully closed. Then while turning the knob
counterclockwise, trigger short bursts of paint. This
counterclockwise movement of the knob will move the
pattern from fine to coarse. Adjust the knob until the
desired pattern is obtained.
If the pattern is too coarse and the fluid control knob can
not adjust it properly, try adjusting the air pressure or
thin the paint to achieve desired pattern.
