Maintenance - Central Pneumatic Professional 92126 Assembly And Operating Instructions Manual

In most cases, it is best to move the paint spray from side to side, over-
lapping the previous paint. In this way you will gradually build up the paint layer
without leaving any obvious edges.
To paint in this way, the spray pattern should be set to vertical.
It is important to prevent excess paint at the beginning and end of each
stroke. Holding the sprayer away from the work piece, squeeze the trigger to
start the spray. Then move the spray gun in to within 14-16 inches of the work
piece. Move the sprayer smoothly across the work piece, keeping a consistent
distance. At the end of each stroke, pull the sprayer away from the work piece
as you release the trigger.
As you work, carefully observe the way the paint accumulates on the
work surface. It is more important to maintain a good paint surface than to form
an opaque (thick) paint coat. You can always apply a second coat to get the
coverage you want. If the surface is ruined, however, you will have to start over
with surface preparation.
If the surface does not smooth out in a few seconds after applying the
paint, your paint mixture is probably too thick. Thin your paint slightly and test
on a piece of scrap material. If the paint goes on very thin and threatens to run,
stop spraying immediately. Add more paint to your mixture to thicken the paint.
After each use, thoroughly clean the spray gun.
1. Empty the Paint Cup of paint, and wipe it out with a clean rag.
2. Fill the Paint Cup about halfway with the solvent appropriate for the paint
used.
3. Spray the solvent into an appropriate receptacle for proper disposal.
Continue to spray until paint in the interior of the Spray Gun is ejected and
the solvent spray is clear.
4. Using a clean rag damp with solvent, wipe off the Spray Gun to remove
paint from the exterior.
5. Store your paint sprayer in a clean dry place.
