– Shake the spray gun several times.
– Unscrew the container (7) and empty the container com-
pletely into an empty material tin.
– Remove the cap nut (3), the air cap (2), the gasket (11),
the nozzle cap used (9)/(8) with the O-ring (10) and the
suction tube (12) with the container seal (14).
When doing so, ensure that the O-ring (10) remains on
the nozzle cap.
– Clean all paint-carrying parts in a bucket with diluting
agent using a commercially available washing-up brush.
Also clean the paint channel (16) of the spray gun (1).
– Check that the suction tube (12) and the container seal
(14) are free of spray material and undamaged.
If required, clean the container seal (14) again with dilut-
ing agent.
– Clean the ventilation hole (15) using a suitable object.
– Clean the outside of the container and the spray gun with
a cloth moistened in paint thinner.
– Before mounting, allow all components to dry thoroughly.
– Reassemble the fine-spray system in reverse order.
Slide the container seal (14) upwards again into the
groove of the suction tube (12).
Ensure that the container seal is positioned precisely all
Problem Cause
Spray material does not Spraying capacity too low
cover properly
Clearance to target area too large
Not enough spray material on target area, too
few spray paths sprayed over target area
Spray material too viscous
Spray material runs off after Too much spray material applied
coating
Clearance to target area too close
Viscosity of spray material too low
Spray material applied too often over same
spot
Atomisation too coarse Spraying capacity too high

around in the suction tube groove in order to seal the
spray gun correctly.
Make sure that you slide the suction tube (12) all the way
back onto the paint channel (16).
Material Disposal
Diluting agent and remnants of spray material must be dis-
posed of in an environmentally friendly manner. Observe the
manufacturer's disposal information and the local regula-
tions for disposal of hazardous waste.
Chemicals harmful to the environment may not be disposed
of into soil, groundwater or bodies of water. Never pour
chemicals harmful to the environment into the sewerage sys-
tem.
Storage
– Before putting the fine-spray system into storage, thor-
oughly clean the fine-spray system and allow all parts to
dry completely before assembling them.
If the fine-spray system is not being used, the elastic band
together with the pin on the base unit (19) serve as a prac-
tical storage option for the air hose (17) (see figure ).
Troubleshooting
Corrective measure
Turn thumbwheel (5) in the + direction
Reduce spray distance
Apply more spray paths over target area
Dilute the spray material again and carry out a
test-spray run
Turn thumbwheel (5) in the − direction
Increase spray distance
Add original spray material
Remove spray material; reduce number of
spray paths over same spot
Turn thumbwheel (5) in the − direction
Fit the grey nozzle cap (8)
Clean nozzle needle
Dilute the spray material again and carry out a
test-spray run
Change air filter
Turn thumbwheel (5) in the − direction
Reduce spray distance
Refill spray material
Clean the suction tube and the ventilation hole
Slide the suction tube all the way onto the paint
channel (16)
Tighten the nozzle cap
