2. SAFETY WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION
1. Never use the following HALOGENATED HYDROCARBON SOLVENTS:
which can cause cracks or dissolution of gun body (aluminium) due to
chemical reaction. UNSUITABLE SOLVENTS: methyl chloride, dichlorometha-
ne, 1.2-dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene,
1.1.1-trichloroethane
2. Sparks and open flames are strictly prohibited. Fluids can be highly
flammable and can cause fire. Do not expose to open flames, electrical
goods, cigarettes etc.
3. Securely ground spray gun using conductive air hose. (Less than1MΩ)
Always ensure that the spray gun is earthed correctly.
PROTECTION OF HUMAN BODY
1. Use in a well-ventilated site, using a spray booth.
Poor ventilation can cause organic solvent poisoning and fire.
2. Always wear protective gear (safety glasses, mask, gloves) to avoid
inflammation of eyes and skin.
In case of any physical discomfort, immediately seek medical advice.
3. Wear earplugs if necessary.
Noise level can exceed 85 dB(A), depending on operating conditions and
painting site.
4. Pulling the trigger many times during operation, may cause carpal
tunnel syndrome. Always rest, in case of tiredness.
IMPROPER USE
1. Never point gun towards people or animals.
2. Never exceed maximum working pressure or maximum operating
3. Always release air and fluid pressure before cleaning, disassembling or
4. Tip of fluid needle set has a sharp point.
5. Never use this gun to spray foods or chemicals. Otherwise, foreign sub-

1. Firmly connect an air hose to air hose joint (15) (AIR).
2. Firmly connect fluid hose to fluid hose joint (15) (FLUID).
3. Supply compressed air to the gun.
4. Supply release agent to the gun, test spray, adjust fluid output and pattern

health.
Do not use again, until you have solved the problem.
until they have been turned off. Otherwise, they could cause injury.
Use clean air filtered through air dryer and air filter.
When using this gun for the first time after purchase, spray cleaner to
clean fluid passages and remove rust preventive oil.
Firmly fix hose to spray gun, to avoid that the disconnection of it, can
cause bodily injury.

property. Adjust air pressure within a range of 1.0 ~ 2.0 bar. (Use higher air
pressure to spray fine mist and lower air pressure to spray coarse mist).
less. There are two methods to adjust fluid output:
output becomes zero when fluid adjustment knob of gun is turned fully
clockwise. Fluid output gradually starts increasing when fluid adjustment
knob is turned counterclockwise from zero point and fluid output stops
increasing when fluid adjustment knob is turned 4 turns and more counter-
clockwise.
closed. The pattern becomes oval, tourning the pattern adj. set (14) coun-
terclock-wise. When adjustment is set, tighten the Hex. nut M6.
Set the spray distance from the gun to the work piece, as near as possible
within the range of 50-150 mm.
