Note: If you are not yet very familiar with the set-
tings for the spray shape and the material volume,
use a test piece to check the results before you
paint the actual workpiece.
6.5 Spraying techniques
•
The results you get depend on how smooth
and clean the surface is. The surface must be
carefully prepared and free of dust.
•
Surfaces, threads, etc. which should not be
sprayed must be covered.
•
Always set the spray gun down on cardboard
or something similar. You can use the card-
board as a target to properly adjust the spray
gun.
Important:
Always begin spraying outside of the area to be
sprayed and avoid interrupting spraying inside the
area to be sprayed.
•
Wrong (Fig. 12): If you only rotate the spray
gun from side to side, the gun will produce a
heavy mist and the coverage will be uneven.
•
Right (Fig. 13): Always hold the spray gun at
the same distance (about 5-15 cm) from the
surface you are working on.
•
Move the spray gun uniformly laterally or up
and down depending on the fan pattern.
•
Uniform motion of the spray gun produces
uniform finish quality.
•
If material residue remains on the nozzle (3)
and the air cap (2), clean both parts with sol-
vent or water.
6.6 Disconnecting and cleaning the gun
(Fig. 1a-1d, 14-21, 22a, 22b, 23)
Danger!
Always pull out the battery pack before starting
any cleaning work.
1. Press the trigger (5), so that the residual ma-
terial fl ows back into the container (12).
2. Unscrew the container (12) and empty the
residual material back into the material tin.
3. Clean the container (12) and the material
tube (11) with a bristle brush.
4. Pour solvent or water into the container.
Screw the container back on. Solvents with a
fl ash point above 55°C are not allowed to be
used.
5. Reinsert the battery and turn on the paint

spray gun. Set the controller (6) to the maxi-
mum fl ow setting. Spray the solvent or water
into a container or rag, but never into the sur-
roundings.
6. Repeat the procedure above until the clear
solvent or water exits from the nozzle (3).
7. Then switch off the paint spray gun and remo-
ve the battery.
8. Completely empty the container (12). Always
keep the container (12) free of residue and
check it for damage.
9. Use a rag soaked in solvent or water to clean
the outside of the paint spray gun and the
container (12).
10. Unscrew the air cap retaining ring (1) and
then remove the air cap (2). Remove the
nozzle (3). Push the fl uid needle adapter (B)
onto the fl uid needle (13). Twist and pull to
remove the fl uid needle. Clean the air cap
retaining ring, the air cap, the nozzle and the
fl uid needle with a bristle brush and solvent or
water.
11. Remove the fi lter cap (16) in order to clean
the air inlet fi lter (25). Remove the fi lter and
clean it by blowing it out with air. Then reinsert
the fi lter and screw the fi lter cap onto the tool.
Do not operate the tool without the fi lter (Fig.
21).
12. Reinsert the fl uid needle. While inserting,
ensure that the pins on the sides of the fl uid
needle point up/down and not left/right. Use
slight pressure to insert the fl uid needle until it
latches home. (Fig. 20)
13. Pull the trigger (5) so that the fl uid needle
moves inwards. Now fi rst place the nozzle (3)
on the fl uid needle (13) and then the air cap
(2) on the nozzle (3). The nozzle has a special
locking point on the drive unit, and the air cap
has a special locking point on the nozzle (Fig.
15). Use the union nut (1) to screw the air cap
to the trigger unit (14) (Fig. 14).
14. Pull the air pipe (23) off the trigger unit (14)
and unscrew the seal cap (24) from the trig-
ger unit, then remove the seal (24). Clean the
air pipe, the seal and the seal cap as requi-
red, then refi t them on the trigger unit (Fig.
22-23).
15. Ensure that the paint spray gun is completely
dry before storing it.
16. Properly dispose of residual paint and
cleaning agents in accordance with local laws
and regulations. Residual paint and solvents
must be taken to a suitable collection point. If
you are not sure, ask the local council where
the nearest collection point is.
