Fig. 10 A CORRECT: Even distance to the object.
Fig. 10 C INCORRECT: Uneven distance causes uneven coating.
•
Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up-and-down, depending on the spray pattern
setting.
•
An even movement of the spray gun results in an even surface quality.
•
When coating material builds up on the nozzle and air cap (Fig. 10), clean both parts
with a solvent or water.
b) For interior wall paint
•
Cover all surfaces not to be sprayed.
The enclosed practice poster is ideal for familiarising yourself with
i
operation of the spray gun. After these initial spray attempts it is a
good idea to perform a spray test on cardboard or a similar surface, in
order to determine the material and air quantity required to achieve an
optimal spray pattern.
Important: Start at the edge of the area to be sprayed. Start the spray
movement first of all, and then press the trigger. Avoid interruptions
within the area to be sprayed.
•
The spray movement should come from the arm, not just from the wrist. This ensures
that a uniform distance is maintained between the spray gun and the spray surface
during the spray operation. Select a distance of 20-30 cm (gun length is approx. 25
cm), depending on the desired spray jet width.
Fig. 10 B:
CORRECT Even distance to the object.
Fig. 10 C:
INCORRECT An uneven distance will result in uneven paint application.
•
Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up-and-down, depending on the spray
pattern setting.
•
An even movement of the spray gun results in an even surface quality.
•
If nozzle and air cap are soiled, clean both parts with water and solvent.
i
"Cross spray" when using paint with a poor covering capacity or if the
surface is highly absorbent (Fig. 11).
i
Interior wall paint in strong colour shades should be applied at least twice
(allow first paint coat to dry first). This will ensure good coverage.
Interruption of Work till 4 Hours
•
Turn the machine off.
•
During longer breaks, vent the container by briefly opening and then closing it again.
•
Clean nozzle openings after an interruption in operation.
•
When processing 2-component varnishes, clean the device immediately.
