Spraying Technique
adjusting the spray tip assembly:
The adjustable spray tip assembly produces
a pattern that can be adjusted horizontally
or vertically. Rotate the spray adjustment
guard as shown.
To prevent an injection hazard,
make sure the sprayer is
unplugged before you adjust the
spray tip. Make sure the spray tip
is sufficiently hand tightened.
Spraying Technique
Keep your arm moving at constant speed and
keep the sprayer at a constant distance from the
surface. The sprayer should be triggered at the
beginning of the stroke and released at the end
of the stroke.
never tip the sprayer at more
than a 45º angle when spraying
overhead. Material could get into
the motor housing and cause an
electric shock.
Keep the sprayer at a consistent distance to
the surface. This means moving your entire
arm back and forth rather than just flexing
your wrist. Overlap each stroke by 50%.
IMPORTanT: If material is leaking from the threads
of the spray tip, turn off the sprayer immediately or
the sprayer could be damaged. The sprayer will leak
from behind the spray tip if the atomizer valve is not
seated properly. If you notice material leaking from
this area, follow the steps below.
1. Unplug the sprayer immediately.
Remove the spray tip by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Remove the atomizer valve and see if it needs to
be cleaned or replaced (see page 11). Also check
the pump housing opening for any dirt or other
obstruction and clean if necessary.
3. Put the atomizer valve back in place, making sure it
can seat properly without any obstruction.
4. Thread on the spray tip by turning it clockwise and
tighten firmly by hand.
