Correct
• The gun must be clean and correctly loaded, the spray pattern adjusted
and the compressor set at the correct pressure
• Spray in a wide sweeping motion. Keep your hand as steady as possible
and carry the gun in a straight line ('pass') across the workpiece
• Always carry out a test to establish the best setting and distance from the
work area prior to starting work
• Before spraying it is good practice to make a dry run of the entire
process. Start with the least visible areas and work towards the parts
that will be seen. This will create an even finish and allow you to work
around spots that may already have been covered
WARNING: Be aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use.
Always bleed air pressure from the tool after shutting off air supply.
Maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect from the air supply and depressurise before
disassembly or carrying out any maintenance.
WARNING: Always wear suitable protective equipment including eye and
respiratory protection as well as gloves when carrying out cleaning or
maintenance procedures.
WARNING: The majority of solvents used for painting applications are
toxic and highly flammable. Comply with local laws and regulations with
regards to handling, storage and disposal of solvents and other harmful and
potentially dangerous substances.
Note: Your spray gun is a fine precision instrument and must be treated and
maintained accordingly, in order to achieve consistent professional looking
uniform results.
• The most common problems with spray guns are caused by paint being
allowed to dry inside the tip, nozzle or internal air/fluid passages
• Clean the entire spray gun thoroughly after each project, and when
changing the type of material being sprayed
• Always use the same solvent for cleaning that was used to thin the paint
General cleaning after every use
1. Remove the paint container, empty remaining material into a suitable
sealed container, and clean thoroughly with the appropriate solvent
and clean cloths
2. Clean the nozzle assembly of the gun, lid and gasket of the paint
container
3. Pour a small amount of solvent into the clean paint container and re-fit
it to the gun
4. Connect the gun to the air supply
5. Direct the gun towards an empty container and spray the solvent
through the gun into the container, until the spray is clear of any paint
6. Turn off the air supply and disconnect the gun
7. Release the paint container, empty remaining solvent into the disposal
container, and let all components dry thoroughly
8. Re-fit paint container for storage

WARNING: In order to prevent solvents and other harmful substances from
entering the atmosphere, open solvent cleaning is not permitted in some
territories, and special cleaning procedures apply (e.g. cleaning inside
special closed bags and containers, etc.). Make yourself familiar with local
regulations, and apply the recommended procedures.
Lubrication
• Even though the air and material passages of the spray gun must remain
free of oil and other contaminants, some components require frequent
lubrication
• Slightly lubricate all packings, bearings and dynamic O-rings with a
specialised spray gun lube, and apply a small amount of petroleum jelly
to springs
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children
Disposal
• Air tools should not be disposed of with household waste
• Spray guns may contain traces of solvents and paint residue, and so
must be recycled accordingly
• Surplus paints, solvents and cleaning solutions must be disposed of
according to the manufacturer's instructions
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct
way to dispose of air tools
