Preparing to Spray

Use a pot liner in the pressure pot when spraying
or cleaning with hot solvents such as lacquer-
based paints, lacquer thinner, and M.E.K. The use
of hot solvents in the pressure pot without a pot
Attention
liner may lift the paint off the interior of the
pressure pot and contaminate the paint finish.
Refer to the parts list in this manual for the pot
liner part number.
1. If using any materials
mentioned above, place a
pressure tank liner (3) into
the pressure tank.
2. Loosen wing nuts on the
locking clamps (do not
remove), and remove
pressure tank lid
3. Fill the pressure tank with
spraying material.
4. Figure 13 - Fasten the lid
securely onto the pressure
tank by placing the five
locking clamps (4) into
the lid grooves (1) and
tightening the wing nuts by
hand. Be sure the seal (2)
is in place.
5. Figure 14 - Connect the
pressure tank air hose (1)
to the pressure tank air
inlet.
The hose features quick-disconnect fittings. To
i
use, pull back on the spring-loaded collar of each
fitting. Slide the hose fitting over the correct
connection and release the collar.

6. Plug in the power cart power cord into an electrical socket.
Turn the power cart switch to the ON (l) position to turn on
the compressor.
GB
The compressor should run continuously (up to 2
i
minutes) upon initially charging the pressure pot.
As the compressor reaches the desired pressure
(set by the regulator), the compressor will diminish
its cycling rate. If the system is left idle (i.e. no
material being sprayed) for several minutes, the
compressor will cycle periodically due to normal
air losses. When the system is idle the
compressor may cycle up to 4 times per minute. If
the compressor cycles more frequently than this or
does not stop, see Troubleshooting section.
13
When material is being sprayed the compressor
should normally cycle every 5-10 seconds.
7. Figure 15 - Pull out the pressure control knob (1) and turn
it until the pressure is set properly for the type of material
1
you are using (see Adjusting material pressure, below).

Adjusting material pressure
1. Switch the turbine OFF.
2. Figure 16 - Turn material adjusting knob (4) on gun
counterclockwise so that the trigger completely contacts
gun handle when operated.
3. Hold spray gun over open container an hold trigger.

4. Figure 16 -
• If material pressure is correctly adjusted, stream should
spray in an even arc (6).
• If material drips out of the gun (7), material pressure
is too low. Remedy - Increase pressure (maximum
pressure 2.5 bar (0.25 MPa, 36 PSI)), or dilute the
material.
• If material streams in a straight line (5), the material
pressure is too high. Remedy - Reduce pressure at air
regulator.

5. Press the compressor air regulator button in to fix the
material pressure.
6. Turn the turbine ON.
7. Practice spraying on a piece of scrap wood or cardboard
until you are satisfied with the pressure, spray pattern, and
spray shape. The spray pattern adjustments and spray
shape selections are described in your turbine manual.
