wards and forwards, up and down. Do
not spray at another angle to the surface,
because the paint will otherwise run
down. A gentle and uniform movement is
important. Spray large surfaces crosswise
(see Figs. 5, 6, 7 and 8).
Never switch the spray gun on or off,
while it is aimed at the surface to be
sprayed. Always move the spray gun at
an unvarying rate. Rapid movement
results in a thin layer of paint, slow
movement in a thick layer. Only one
layer should be applied per spray pass.
Should another layer prove necessary,
the recommendations of the paint
manufacturer for drying times must
be maintained. When spraying small
surfaces, set the control knob (3) to
low. This will avoid too much paint
consumption and too thick application.
When spraying, avoid switching the
appliance on and off frequently, because
too much or too little paint might be
thus applied. Do not tilt the spray gun
lower than 45°.
Mounting and use of the nozzle
extension
The nozzle extension simplifies work at
inaccessible places such as between the
ribs of radiators. To mount the nozzle
extension, unscrew the spray nozzle and
screw on the extension instead. Now
screw on the spray nozzle at the end of
the nozzle extension and tighten it up
(see Fig. 9).

Cleaning and maintenance
ATTENTION! Be sure to pull the
mains plug prior to cleaning the
70
spray gun or paint tank.
• During use, paint particles and dried
residual paint may block the spray
nozzle. This can be removed carefully
from the nozzle opening by using the
cleaning needle (12).
• Clean the spray gun thoroughly each
time after use. Omitting to do this will
lead almost inevitably to blockages
and consequently to malfunctions of
the appliance in subsequent use. The
guarantee does not include cleaning
of the spray gun, which has not been
thoroughly cleaned by the user.
ATTENTION! The following work
must be carried out each time
after use:
1. Empty any paint still in the paint tank.
2. Clean the tank thoroughly with the
thinner used.
3. Pour some thinner into the tank and
spray with the spray gun until only
pure thinner comes out of it.
4. Clean the intake tube and the filter
with thinner.
5. Clean the basket and nozzle, and
remove any dirt and paint remaining
6. Place the spray gun on its head and
pour a few drops of sewing machine
oil into the two openings (see Fig. 10).
7. Briefly switch on the spray gun.
8. Keep the appliance's venting slots clean
to prevent the motor overheating.
Clean the housing regularly with a
soft cloth, best after use. The venting
slots must be free of dust and dirt.
Should the dirt not be removed, use a
soft cloth moistened with soapy
water. Never use a solvent such as
benzene, alcohol, ammoniac. These
solvent may attack the parts made of
plastic.
CAUTION! Electrical and battery
operated units that no longer
work should not be disposed of in the
