Intended Use
• Electric spray gun for the application of water, solvent and enamel-based paints,
varnishes, stains and wood sealers of suitable viscosity and composition
Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all its
features and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts
are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use
this tool
Before Use
Paint preparation
• Before use, paint must be prepared to the proper viscosity (stains do not require
preparation)
• Stir the paint thoroughly before checking viscosity
• Dip the Viscosity Cup (7) into the paint and lift out. Measure the time taken for
the cup to drain fully
Refer to the table below for proper draining times. If the paint drains too slowly, it
requires thinning.
Product
Water-based paint
Primers
Varnish
Enamels
Wood sealers
WARNING: This product can accept liquids up to a maximum of 50DIN/s viscosity.
If the liquid takes longer than 50 seconds to drain from the viscosity cup then it
must be thinned.
Filling the spray gun
WARNING: Ensure that the spray gun is disconnected from the mains power
supply before filling.
Note: Only mix a small quantity of paint at a time, and always recheck viscosity
before refilling spray gun.
1. To remove the Fluid Container (5), rotate anticlockwise and pull away from
the body of the spray gun
2. Pour the paint or stain (of correct viscosity) into the fluid cup, and carefully
re-attach to body of spray gun
Adjustment
Note: It is highly recommended that some practice is carried out on a scrap
material to determine the optimum spray gun settings before use
• The Regulator Dial (3) controls the rate at which the fluid is sprayed
Note: Correct Regulator Dial setting, spraying distance, and speed of movement
are crucial to achieving a good quality finish
Operation
Note: The surface to be sprayed must always be properly cleaned and dried before
starting work. Areas that you wish to keep clean should be masked off.
1. To start spraying, squeeze the Trigger Switch (4)
2. To stop spraying, release the trigger switch
• Always hold the gun level, and at 90˚ to the work surface. The correct spraying
distance will depend on the setting of the Regulator Dial
• The most effective way to spray vertical surfaces is to use an overlapping
zig-zag pattern. To even out application, recover vertical zig-zags with horizontal
zig-zags
• If you wish to spray non-vertical surfaces, attach the angled nozzle extension
supplied. This will allow you to hold the gun level as you spray
• Apply paint or stain in thin coats. Allow time to dry between coats

28 - 35 secs
Note: Clean the spray gun thoroughly as soon as you have finished spraying even
between applying multiple layers on surfaces if the surface needs drying time
and the sprayer isn't actively used in that time. Follow the cleaning advice of the
manufacturer of the liquid being sprayed. Higher viscosity liquids may require more
frequent cleaning. To maintain the sprayer in working condition it is critical that it
is regularly cleaned in use.
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS switch off and disconnect the tool from the power supply
before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.
Cleaning
WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and gloves
when cleaning this tool.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear
quickly, and shorten the device's service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not sufficient, a
mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended
• Water must never come into contact with the tool
• Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it
• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
(where applicable)
Cleaning the paint container and nozzles
WARNING: Do not immerse the spray gun in water, or use flammable cleaning
agents.
1. Remove the Fluid Container (5), and pour unused paint or stain back into
container
2. Clean the fluid cup thoroughly, using warm water or suitable paint thinners
3. Pour a small quantity of warm water or thinners into the fluid container, and
re-attach to the spray gun
4. Reconnect to mains power supply. Spray the water or thinners against scrap
material, until only clear fluid is ejected. Disconnect from mains power
supply
5. Unscrew the Nozzle Guard (2), and Nozzle (1), from the spray gun. Withdraw
the piston assembly and clean all parts thoroughly
6. Use the Cleaning Pin (6) to remove any paint from inside the nozzle
Note: Replace the Nozzle (1) if damaged or if dried paint residue cannot be
removed. One Spare Nozzle (9) is included in the set.
7. Allow to dry, and reassemble
Storage
• Store this tool and its accessories in a dry, secure place out of the reach of
children
• Store this spray gun in a dry place, where it will not be subjected to freezing
temperatures
Disposal
Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools that are no
longer functional and are not viable for repair.
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct way
to dispose of power tools
• Spray guns may contain traces of solvents and paint residue, and must be
recycled accordingly
• Surplus paints, solvents and cleaning solutions must be disposed of according
to the manufacturer's instructions
