OPERATION
To do this, fill a 1 liter container with the required paint.
Then use the viscosity cup supplied to add 100 ml of
required thinner. Stir the contents thoroughly, measure
the viscosity using the viscosity chart above. If paint
requires further thinning then repeat the above step.
NOTE: Some paints are outside the ranges listed above.
Please contact our helpline for further information.
FILLING SPRAYER WITH PAINT/STAIN
See Figure 3-4.
Remove and discard any skin that has formed on top of
the paint or stain, then thoroughly mix the material in its
original container before beginning.
NOTE: Older containers of stain and paint may need to
be strained before use.
Q Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
Remove the quick-lock container by twisting clockwise
Q
so that the arrow on the container lines up with the
"unlock" symbol on the lid.
Fill the container with paint or stain as desired. Do not
Q
fill above the max fill mark on the container.
Reinstall the container on the sprayer and twist
Q
counterclockwise so that the arrow on the container
lines up with the "lock" symbol on the lid.
SELECTING THE PROPER SPRAY TIP
See Figure 5.
Use the Round Tip for thinner diluted paints
and stains. This tip sprays in a round pattern.
Ideal for outdoor fence spraying.
Use the Fan Tip for thicker or non diluted
paints. This tip sprays in a wide pattern,
giving a fine professional finish. It can be
adjusted from horizontal to vertical. Ideal for
indoor wall spraying.
To switch tips:
Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
Q
Remove the installed tip by turning it counter-
Q
clockwise.
Install the desired tip and rotate clockwise to tighten
Q
securely.
NOTE: The tip should be tightened securely by
hand. A too loose or overtightened tip may cause the
sprayer to leak or be damaged.
To change direction of fan tip from Horizontal to
Vertical:
Slightly loosen the fan tip by rotating counterclockwise
Q
1/4 turn.
English
Rotate the adjusting arm 1/4 turn in the direction
Q
needed to switch the direction of the tip spray.
Q While holding the adjusting arm in position, rotate the
fan tip clockwise until securely tightened.
OPERATING THE SPRAYER
See Figure 6-9.
Q Place a line of lubricant on the piston. To gain access
to the piston, follow the instructions in Cleaning the
Sprayer for Storage in the Maintenance section of
this manual.
Q Ensure surface to be painted is free of dust, dirt, and
grease.
Mask or cover any areas not intended to be painted
Q
or stained. Be aware of wind that may cause your
paint or stain to spray into areas not desired. Always
use drop cloths or other cover to protect areas that
are not intended to be painted or stained.
Fill the quick-lock container with no more than 1 liter
Q
of desired paint or stain.
NOTE: After ever y 4 refills of the quick-lock
container, add a line of lubricant to the piston. See
Cleaning the Sprayer for Storage for instructions
on disassembling the sprayer to gain access to the
piston.
Q Select the proper spray tip for desired spray pattern.
Q Install the battery pack in the sprayer.
Q Pull the switch trigger to spray paint. Release the
switch trigger to stop paint spray.
Q Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material to test
your spray pattern and to prime the pump before
beginning. If you cannot get a good spray pattern with
an even amount of paint or stain throughout, refer to
either the Dilution section or Troubleshooting section
later in this manual.
NOTE: The pump must be primed after every paint
change and at first use after storing. Spray paint at a
scrap surface for at least 20 seconds to prime.
To create an even coating over the entire surface:
Q
• Move your arm at a steady rate of speed and make
sure to move your entire arm, not just your wrist.
• Keep the sprayer an even distance from the area
being sprayed, which should be between 20 to 25
cm from the tip of the sprayer to the surface being
sprayed.
• Depress the trigger to begin the spray off the
material you want to paint. Operate the sprayer in
straight horizontal or vertical strokes across the
surface being painted, then release the trigger off
the material to end the stroke.
NOTE: For spray quality consistency when using
thinner paints, it may be necessary to keep the
trigger depressed between strokes.
When finished, remove the battery pack, return any
Q
unused paint or stain to its original container, and
thoroughly clean the sprayer.
