Spray Pattern Adjustment
Adjust Spray Shape
The spray pattern shape is adjusted by turning 
the adjustment ring (iSpray) or air cap ears (Detail 
Finish) to either the vertical, horizontal, or diagonal 
positions. The positions of the air cap and the 
corresponding spray pattern shapes are illustrated 
below.
Test each pattern and use whichever pattern is 
suitable for your application.
NEVER trigger the nozzle while 
adjusting the ears on the air cap. 
NEVER point the nozzle at any part of 
the body.

IMPORTANT: When changing the spray 
pattern, make sure the black retaining ring is 
not loosened.
*Note: The air cap can be set diagonally on the 
Detail Finish nozzle only. To achieve a round 
pattern with the iSpray nozzle, see the “Adjust 
Spray Width” section.
Adjust Spray Width - iSpray only
The spray width lever on the iSpray nozzle 
determines the width of the spray pattern.

Tips:
 1. Start with a fan pattern for painting trim work 
(1-5” width) and larger surfaces like doors and 
walls (>5” width).
 2.  Adjust Material & Air Flow settings as shown in 
chart based on coating, fan pattern width, and 
nozzle.
 3.  Fine tune the Material and Air Power settings to 
achieve the best results for your application.
 4.  Use narrow pattern for detailed work, touch up.
 5.  Recommended settings for Material and Air 
Power may change if the coating is thinned.
