Adjusting Paint Flow and Air Flow
1.
Use the air regulator (not included) to regulate air flow. You must purchase a regu-
lator that can be adjusted to between 15 and 50 PSI. Since there is no pressure
gauge you will have to test the Air Brush on a piece of scrap material to determine
the desired setting.
2.
On the Air Brush, turn the Fluid Cap (1) to adjust paint flow. For maximum flow,
turn the cap counterclockwise. For minimum flow, turn the cap clockwise. See
FIGURE 1 on page 4 and the assembly drawing on page 6.
Spray Painting
1.
In a well ventilated area, press the Lever (9) to test the spray on test material. Hold
the Air Brush six inches from the material and make the necessary adjustments.
2.
Practice spraying even strokes to avoid drips.
Note: Since enamels and lacquer paints dry quickly, do not leave the Air Brush for more
than a few seconds or the paint may dry and clog the Air Brush.
3.
Have a spare Jar (6) filled with thinner or water, depending on the type of paint be-
ing sprayed.
4.
When finished spraying, release pressure on the Lever (9). Immediately remove
the paint jar from the Air Brush and attach the spare Jar (6). Continuously spray
on scrap white paper until the paint residue in the Air Brush is sprayed out.
Cleaning
1.
Remove excess paint from the Jar (6) and clean thoroughly.
2.
Spray thinner or water (depending on the paint used) through the Air Brush until it
is entirely clean. Plug up the Fluid Cap (1) with a soft cloth and force air and solu-
tion through the cap and tip.
Troubleshooting
If the Air Brush becomes clogged, disconnect from the air source and clean as
stated above. Next, gently un-thread (counterclockwise) the Fluid Cap (1) and Air
Tip (7). Clean the parts in thinner and replace.
