PREPARING AND USING YOUR PAINT SPRAYER Preparation of the surface and thinning of the paint are the two most important areas to be concerned with to obtain the best results from your Paint Sprayer. Ensure all surfaces are free from dust, dirt, rust and grease. If necessary rub down with sandpaper, or similar. Mask areas you do not wish to be painted.
USING THE OUTPUT CONTROL KNOB Turning the output control knob clockwise reduces the flow of material whilst turning it anti-clockwise increases the flow. To adjust the pattern undertake the following: 1. Turn the output control knob anti-clockwise to the maximum position. 2. Pull the trigger and test the pattern on a piece of cardboard or newspaper. 3. Turn the output control knob clockwise from the maximum position until the spray pattern is correct.
HELPFUL HINTS 1) Only apply one coat at a time. If more than one coat is required follow the paint manufacturer’s instructions for drying times. 2) If spraying small objects keep the output setting low as this will avoid excessive use of paint and will minimise overspray. 3) When spraying large areas or objects use a criss-cross pattern either left to right then up and down or vice-versa. Remember to momentarily stop spraying as you change direction. This will ensure maximum coverage. (See Fig.
