5. Keep the gun at the right angle as shown while
spraying. (See Figure 5)
NOTE The fluid control knob (G) can be adjusted
either clockwise or counterclockwise to finely
consistency. Before spraying on
workpiece, practice a few minutes on a cardboard
target to ensure that the pattern size and
consistency are set correctly.
NOTE Always keep the gun in motion while
spraying. Stopping gun movement in mid-stroke
will cause a build-up of paint and will result in runs.
Do not fan the gun from side to side while painting.
This will cause a build-up of paint in the center of
stroke and an insufficient coating at each end.

the spray gun 6 in. to 9 in. away from
workpiece, spray a short burst while turning the
fluid knob counterclockwise. Observe the spray
pattern on the workpiece and adjust the fluid
control knob (G) until desired pattern/atomization
is obtained. If the spray is too fine (caused by too
much air), reduce the air pressure or open the
fluid control knob (G) to spray more paint. If the
spray is too coarse (or is spitting blobs), reduce
the amount of paint with the fluid control knob
(G) or thin the pain more (See Figure 4).
