Never start or stop the spray gun while it is aimed at
the surface to be sprayed. Evenly control the speed of
movement of the spray gun. A fast speed of movement
over the surface will give a thin coat and aslowspeed
will givea heavy coat. Apply one coat at a time. If a fur-
ther coat is required, make sureyou observe the manu-
facturers drying time recommendations before apply-
ing a second coat. When spraying small areas, keep
the output control on a low setting. This will avoid using
too much paint and prevent overspray. Where possible,
avoid stopping and starting when spraying an object.
This can lead to too much, or not enough paint being
applied. Do not tip the spray gun to more than 45°
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always remember to disconnect from the
mains supply before cleaning the spray gun
or paint container.
It is essential that the spray gun is cleaned thoroughly
after every use. Failure to clean it will almost certainly
result in blockages and it may not operate when you
next come to use it! The guarantee does not cover
cleaning a sprayer that has not been properly cleaned
by the user.
The following action must be taken after every
use.
1. Empty any remaining material from the container.
2. Clean the container thoroughly with the thinner
thatwas used.
3. Pour some thinner into the container and spray
through the spray gun until only clean thinner is
coming out of the nozzle.
4.Thoroughly clean the paint pick uppipeand fi lter with
thinner.
5.Clean the basket and nozzle and remove any other
debris or paint that remains.

• Replace the fi lter element and air fi lter cover (A).
• Be sure the fi lter cover seals properly all around.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Motor hums but does not spray or irregular spray-
ing.
1. Worn swirl head
Replace swirl head.
2. Pick up pipe not into the right position
Re-adjust pick up pipe.
3. Blocked pick up pipe
Clean with thinner.
4. Blocked nozzle
Clean nozzle.
5. Blocked fi lter
Clean with thinner.
6. Control knob needs adjustment
Adjust.
Atomization is not good.
1. Volume adjustment is not correct.
Adjust
2. Paint too thick
Check viscosity of the paint
Over painting.
1. Spray gun not clean, or not lubricated, resulting in
piston being stuck in cylinder
Disassemble spray gun and dean with thinner.
2. Too much paint
Adjust the volume clockwise to reduce spraying.
Two t/i/n coats are better then one thick coat.
