(Continued)
type of operation is used with a
compressor equipped with a tank or
with a large factory air system. Do not
use with a continuous run compressor
that does not have a tank.
VISCOSITY – A measurement of the
resistance of the flow of a liquid.
ATOMIZATION - Conversion of liquid
to spray droplets (mist).
PATTERN CONTROL KNOB – Used to
form the proper pattern (size and
shape) of material as it is sprayed from
the gun to the work piece.
FLUID CONTROL KNOB – Used to
control the amount of material being
mixed with air.
PAINT TANK – An auxiliary pressurized
paint reservoir that allows continuous
spraying of large amounts of paint
without stopping for refills as with a
canister. It also allows using the spray
gun at any angle or orientation.

feet to the compressor! If
possible, locate compressor in separate
room. Never spray into the compressor,
compressor controls or the motor.
3. Do not smoke or eat when spraying
paint, insecticides, or other
flammable substances.
WARNING
