Work Stations
The spray gun should only be used as a handheld hand-operated
device. It is always recommended that the spray gun is used when
standing on the solid floor. It can be used in other positions provided the
spray gun is kept near vertical and the operator has a firm grip and
footing. Any work station must take account that the liquid being
sprayed should not be breathed in and the liquid can be highly
flammable and spraying should never be undertaken near naked flames
or hot surfaces. Do not smoke. It should also take account that not all of
the liquid being sprayed will be applied to the object being sprayed and
account must be taken that this surplus, i.e. “over spray” will be
deposited in the surrounding area.

Operating
The Spray Gun is a handheld syphon type
compressed air atomising spray gun
suitable for use with most liquids for paint
spray finishing or the application of
surface coatings. It is a non bleeder type
with external mix nozzle air cap assembly
and full control for material application
and spray pattern between round and fan
(see later). The gun is fitted with a quart (2 pints/1.13 litres) syphon cup
complete with paint strainer.
Use 1.8mm diameter nozzle for polymer paints, oil base paints, epoxy
paints for metals, acrylic lacquers, urethane.
Before spraying any material first read any instructions concerning its
safe use and if nothing is available check with the manufacturer about its
use and the need to use personal safety equipment.
Prepare the paint in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations and place in syphon container. Do not overfill.
Connect the gun to a clean, moisture/oil free air supply at the right
pressure. Fit container to the gun and lock in position. Use the material
adjustment control screw (18) to adjust material flow and the fan
adjustment assembly (17) to adjust from round to fan spray pattern.
Make all adjustments before attempting to spray the work piece.
Note the spray gun can work at pressures of between 30 and 70 psi
and the air consumption is approximately for these pressures from 3 to
7 cfm.
