CONVERTING THE GUN TO A REGULATOR
GUN
Your HVLP spray gun can be converted to connect directly
to existing high pressure air systems with the addition of a
regulator assembly.

of the gun handle using a wrench.
2. Thread the fitting on the regulator assembly (2) into the air
inlet at the bottom of the gun handle and tighten.

3. Attach the air hose from the existing high pressure air
system to the regulator assembly.
4. Set the pressure gauge on the regulator assembly to the
appropriate setting for the coating being sprayed.
Standard air caps require an air flow of 15 – 25
i
SCFM. Low air flow air caps are available for the
regulator gun to use with smaller air compressors.
See "Optional Accessories" for the part numbers.

CONVERTING THE GUN FROM NON-BLEEDER
TO BLEEDER
Your HVLP spray gun can be converted from a non-bleeder
to a bleeder setup. Bleeder setup provides more atomizing
power for higher viscosity materials, such as latex and enamels.
Bleeder setup can make it easier to spray in confined spaces,
such as inside cabinets, because the air hose is moved to the
back of the gun.
To convert a spray gun to bleeder setup:
1. Remove the air flow adjustment knob (Fig. 27, item 1) from
the rear of the gun using a wrench.
2. Remove the air inlet fitting (2) from the bottom of the gun
handle using a wrench.
3. Thread the air inlet fitting (2) into the air flow adjustment
knob location at the rear of the gun (3). Secure the fitting
in place.

4. Thread the air inlet plug [Fig. 28, item 1 (shipped loose with
the gun literature pack)] into the air inlet at the bottom of
the gun handle. Secure the plug in place.

5. Attach the air hose to the relocated air inlet fitting.
In bleeder setup, the removal of the air flow
i
adjustment knob causes the air supply to be on
at all times when the air hose is attached to the
gun.
