3. Press the red inlet valve pusher to ensure that the inlet valve is free. (Fig. 12)
4. 4. Plug in the power cable.
Plug in the power cable.
5. Turn the switch into the PRIME position (vertical).
6. Switch the device ON by turning the pressure regulator slowly into position 2.
7. Switch the device off again (pressure regulator 0) as soon as the paint flows through the return pipe and into the paint container.
If no paint is sucked in, try to solve the problem with the steps described in the following chapter "Help with suction
i
problems".
8. Turn the switch to the SPRAY position (horizontal).
9. Hold the spray gun at the edge of an empty container. (Fig. 13)
10. Release the spray gun and hold the trigger until the material emerges evenly.
11. Let go of the trigger and secure the spray gun.
12. Place the nozzle holder on the spray gun (Fig. 14, A ) and rotate it into the final position (Fig. 14, B), in order to fix it.
13. Insert the nozzle with the tip facing forward. (Fig. 15)
Help with suction problems
1. Press the inlet valve pusher 3-4 times. (Fig. A)
If the problem is not resolved, please continue with the following step.
2. Lightly tap the hose connection several times with e.g. a rubber hammer. (Fig. B)
If the problem is not resolved, please continue with the following step.
3. Switch the device off (pressure regulator in position 0).
4. Remove the suction hose and high pressure hose and turn the unit upside down.
5. Fill approx. 10 ml of water into the material inlet. (Fig. C)
6. Press the inlet valve pusher 3-4 times.
7. Hold a cloth in front of the hose connection and switch on the pump until water emerges from the hose connection.

Spray Technique
Be sure to follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when shutting the unit off for any purpose.
This procedure relieves the pressure from the spray hose and the gun.
Danger
Be sure that the paint hose is free of kinks and clear of objects with sharp cutting edges.
•
It is best to practise on cardboard or a similar surface first of all, in order to check the spray pattern and become accustomed to
using the spray gun.
If the paint sprays evenly, as shown in fig. 16 A, all the setting must be correct.
i
If the paint looks stripy after spraying, as shown in fig. 16 B, gradually increase the pressure, or dilute more in 5%
steps (please note the maximum amount of thinner stipulated by manufacturer.)
•
The key to obtaining a high quality result is even coating of the entire surface.
Keep your arm moving at a constant speed and keep the spray gun at a constant distance from the surface. The best spraying
distance is approx. 20 to 25 cm between the spray nozzle and the surface. (Fig. 17, A)
