Spraying Techniques
Preventing Excessive Tip Wear
•
Spray should be atomized (evenly distributed, no
gaps at edges). Start at low pressure setting,
increase pressure a little at a time until you see a
good spray pattern, without tails.
•
Spray at lowest pressure that atomizes paint.
•
If maximum sprayer pressure is not enough for a
good spray pattern, tip is too worn. See Reversible
Spray Tip Selection Chart, page 15.

NOTE: If tails persist when spraying at the highest pres-
sure, a smaller tip is needed or the material may need to
be thinned.
Adjust Spray Pressure
This sprayer is set up for most airless spraying applica-
tions. Details on tip selection, tip wear, coat thickness,
etc. are provided on page 15.
NOTE: Motor only runs when gun is triggered. Sprayer
is designed to stop pumping when gun trigger is
released.
Align setting indicator with function symbol on Pressure
Control knob, page 10.
•
Turning knob to right (clockwise), increases pres-
sure at gun.
•
Turning it left (counter-clockwise), decreases pres-
sure.
•
General spraying instructions are provided in Get-
ting Started with Basic Spraying Techniques section
of this manual, page 16.
