SETTING
1. The ATOM air valve controls the atomizing air pressure FAN valve reduces the spray pattern size. To
increase the pressure turn clockwise, to reduce turn counter-clockwise.
2. Fluid flow can be adjusted with the rear ratchet knob, fluid flow is increased when you turn the knob
counter-clockwise.
3. For the arrangement of the parts, refer the exploded view at the end of the manual.
STARTING UP
1. Turn the needle adjusting knob (25) clockwise until the needle is fully closed.
2. Turn the FAN and ATOM air valves (13) counter-clockwise to be full open.
3. Use the air cap chart above to set the air pressure at the air regulator to achieve recommended
pressures above.
4. Turn the adjusting knob (25) counter clockwise to obtain the desired fluid flow.
5. Test spray. If the finish is too dry or fine, reduce the airflow by reducing the air inlet pressure or by
screwing the valve ATOM (13) in clockwise, or increase the fluid flow using ratchet knob, rotating
counter clockwise.
6. If the finish is too wet, turn the ratchet knob (25) in clockwise to reduce the fluid flow, or reduce the
fluid pressure.
If the atomization is too coarse, increase inlet air pressure, or reduce fluid flow.
7. The pattern size can be reduced by turning adjusting valve FAN (13) clockwise.
8. The spray pattern will give the best results when perpendicular to the target.
9. The recommended spray distance is 150-220 mm (6’’ to 8’’).
10. Spray edges first. Overlap each stroke a minimum of 50%. Move gun at a constant speed.
11. Always turn off air and fluid supply and relieve pressure and clean down when gun is not in us.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
1. Turn off air and coating supply and relieve pressure in the supply lines, or disconnect from airline and
fluid line.
2. Remove air cap (1) and clean. If any of the holes in the cap are blocked with coating material use a
toothpick to clean. Never use metal wire which could damage the cap and produce distorted spray
patterns
3. Ensure the nozzle of the fluid tip (2) is clean and free from damage. Any build up of dried paint can
distort the spray pattern
.
REPLACEMENT OF PARTS
Turn off air and coating supply and relieve pressure in the supply lines, before any maintenance
operation.
Tip (2) & needle (18)
Remove the air cap (1) by unscrewing its retaining ring counter- clockwise.
Remove the tip (2) and its air separator ring (3) by unscrewing by unscrewing counter- clockwise with
10mm hexagonal spanner.
Unscrew the adjusting needle knob (25) fully in counter-clockwise rotation, push the needle from the
