Speedaire Operating Instructions
Models 2Z363F and 2Z364G
Spray Gun Terms (Continued)
INTERNAL MIx - Process where the
air and material are mixed inside the
air cap just before being sprayed. This
method is best for heavy bodied, slow
drying materials and can only be used
with the pressure feed method. Do not
use fast drying materials with internal
mix. The material will dry inside and
quickly clog the air cap.
ExTERNAL MIx - Process where the air
and material are mixed just after leaving
the nozzle. This type of mix should be
used for fast drying materials and when
a high quality finish is needed.
BLEEDER / NON-BLEEDER - Indicates
whether air flows through the gun
continuously or as the trigger is pulled.
BLEEDER - In this mode, air passes
continuously through the gun whether
spraying or not. This mode is generally
used when the air is supplied by a
continuously running compressor that
does not have a tank.
NON-BLEEDER - In this mode, air
flows only when the trigger is pulled.
This type of operation is used with a
compressor equipped with a tank or
with a large factory air system. Do not
use with a continuous run compressor
that does not have a tank.
vISCOSITy - A measurement of the
resistance of the flow of a liquid.
ATOMIZATION - Conversion of liquid to
spray droplets (mist).
PATTERN CONTROL kNOB - Used
to form the proper pattern (size and
shape) of material as it is sprayed from
the gun to the work piece.
FLUID CONTROL kNOB - Used to
control the amount of material being
mixed with air.
PAINT TANk - An auxiliary pressurized
paint reservoir that allows continuous
spraying of large amounts of paint
without stopping for refills as with a
canister. It also allows using the spray
gun at any angle or orientation.

Model Descriptions

• Has fluid control knob.
• Adjusts for vertical or horizontal
patterns.
• May be used with a paint tank.
MODEL 2Z364G
• Comes from the factory as a non-
bleeder, siphon feed, external mix
gun. Can be converted to bleeder,
pressure feed, internal mix type.
• Switches easily from siphon to
pressure feed with the twist of a
knob.
• Uses internal or external mix air caps.
• Has fluid control knob.
• Has pattern control knob.
• Adjusts for vertical or horizontal
patterns.
• May be used with a paint tank.
Set-Up
USE OF AIR CAPS
Internal Mix - Generally used
with slow drying, heavy
bodied materials and for
faster material application.
NOT to be used with fast
drying paints and lacquers which
will clog the opening in the air cap.
INTERNAL MIX CAPS MUST BE USED
WITH PRESSURE FEED operation.
3
External Mix - Used for quick
drying, light bodied materials
such as lacquers and synthetic
enamels. Better for finer
finish work. THESE CAPS
CAN BE USED WITH EITHER SIPHON OR
PRESSURE FEED.
FAN DIRECTION
The direction of the fan (horizontal or
vertical) can be changed by loosening
the lock ring and turning the air cap 90
degrees (See Figure 1). Hand tighten
lock ring after adjustment.

FLUID FEED
Model 2Z363F
This model is capable of pressure or
siphon feed. Standard set-up is pressure
feed mode; change to siphon mode for
a finer finish using light materials.
To change modes, remove setscrew from
the canister top and place in the lower
part of the gun head (See Figure 2).
