English
• The use of easily flammable, combus-
tible paints, lacquers or thinners is
strictly prohibited.
• The intended use also includes an opera-
tion following the operating instructions.
• Any use beyond these parameters can
lead to serious risks and is regarded as
use that is contrary to the intended
purpose.
• The machine is not intended for
commer cial use.
7. Assembly
(See Fig. A, B, C).
Assemble the spray gun into the main
7.1
housing
• Insert the spray gun (16) into the main
housing (4) in the "open lock" position on
the main housing. Turn in clockwise
direction.
• Lock the main housing and the spray gun
set with the quick release lock (8).
Material preparation
7.2
Viscosity
• The appliance can process spray materi-
als up to a maximum 60 DIN
ity). You can determine the viscosity
(thickness) of the substance with the
supplied measuring cup using a simpli-
fied measuring procedure.
• Before spraying, the material being used
may need to be thinned with the proper
solvent as specified by the material man-
ufacturer. Never exceed the thinning
advice given by the coating
manufacturer.
• Do not use materials with a flash point
below 21 °C. Follow the instructions
below.
Paint thinning
7.3
a. Stir the spraying material thoroughly
before measuring viscosity.
b. Dip the viscosity test cup (13) completely
into the spraying material.
c. Hold the test cup (13) up and measure
the time (in seconds) until the stream of
liquid stops. The resulting value is
referred to as DIN seconds (DIN
d. If the value is too high, gradually thin the
spray material by adding small amounts
8
of a suitable thinning agent in and mixing
the liquid.
e. Measure the DIN seconds again. Repeat
the process until you measure a viscos-
ity of less than 60 DIN seconds.
• Do not exceed the maximal viscosity of
the appliance. The spray material must
not be too thick. Otherwise, the appliance
might clog.
• Ensure that the spray material and thin-
ning agent are compatible. Using an
unsuitable thinning agent may cause
clots that clog the appliance. Never mix
synthetic resin varnishes with cellulose
thinners.
• Granular products and products contain-
ing solids must not be sprayed. Their
abrasive effect will shorten the service
life of the pump and valve.
• Material to be sprayed should always be
strained to remove any impurities in the
paint which may enter and clog the sys-
tem. Impurities in the paint will give poor
performance and a poor finish.

(See Fig. G).
a. Unscrew the container (10) from the
spray gun.
b. After the material has been properly
thinned and strained, fill the container.
c. Carefully screw the container back onto
the spray gun.
7.5
(See Fig. D).
The spray pattern shape is adjusted by turn-
ing the air cap (2) to either a vertical or hori-
zontal position. The positions of the air cap
and the corresponding spray pattern shapes
are illustrated (See Fig. D). Test each pattern
and use whichever pattern is suitable for
your application.
