D-5-55 DETAIL SPRAY GUN
Setup
•
Set shop air pressure regulator (not supplied) according to
paint manufacturer's recommendation. Do not exceed 50
psi (345 kPa, 3.4 bar).
•
Make sure no air restrictions, such as low-volume cheater-
valves, obstruct the air flow. If an air adjusting valve is
desired, use a SHARPE Air Adjusting Valve 24AAV (part
no. 2210), 36AAV-HOV (part no. 3310) or HOV (part no.
U04410).
•
Install a shutoff valve (not supplied) downstream of the air
regulator to shut off gun air.
•
Install an inline air filter (not supplied) to clean and dry the
air supply to the gun.
1.
Turn off air supply.
2.
Connect a clean, dry, filtered air supply to gun air inlet (2).
3.
If this is first time using the equipment, flush the spray gun.

warnings, page 2.
1.
Turn off gun air supply.
2.
Trigger the gun to relieve pressure.
Flushing
WARNING
Read warnings, page 2.
Flush before using the equipment, before changing colors, and
when you are done spraying. Use solvent that is compatible with
gun wetted parts and fluid that will be sprayed. Flush at lowest
possible pressure.
Refer to Compliant Cleaning Methods, page 4, to com-
ply with air quality laws if applicable.
1.
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure.
2.
Dispose of any paint in cup.
3.
Fill cup with small amount of solvent.
4.
Spray into grounded metal waste container until equipment
is clean.
5.
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure.
Spraying
CAUTION
Excessive atomizing air pressure can increase over-spray,
reduce transfer efficiency, result in a poor quality finish
from dry spray.
1.
Fill cup (101) with material. Do not fill past cup "shoulder"
(A). See F
. 1.
IG
2.
Screw cup (101) onto lid securely.
3.
Slowly adjust gun air pressure while fully triggering the gun
until you have the desired atomization.
4.
Adjust the pattern size and shape with the spray width
adjustment knob (10). See F
reduce pattern size and counterclockwise to increase it.
See Troubleshooting guide if you experience an irregular
pattern.
5.
Fluid control knob (7) is factory set for maximum needle trig-
ger travel and material flow. To decrease needle/trigger
travel and decrease fluid flow, turn knob clockwise.
