OPERATION & ADjUSTMENTS
SETTINg WIDTH OF SPRAY PATTERN (NOzzLES)
This spray gun comes with 3 different sized brass
nozzles (1.5mm, 1.8mm and 2.5mm). These nozzles
determine the width of the spray, the smaller the nozzle
size the more narrow the spray width.
1) Loosen and remove the nozzle cap locking nut
(A) Fig.4.
2) Remove the nozzle cap (B).
3) Using a wrench (not included), loosen the brass
nozzle (C) and replace it with the desired brass nozzle.
Individual replacement nozzles are available:
1.5mm nozzle (model KM-105)
1.8mm nozzle (model KM-107)
2.5mm nozzle (model KM-109)
FLOW RATE ADJUSTMENT
This spray gun comes with an adjustable paint flow rate
control dial (A) Fig.5 located on the rear of the trigger
(B).
To adjust: Simply turn the paint flow rate control dial
clockwise to increase (+) or counterclockwise to
decrease (-) the flow.
SPRAYINg TIPS
Make sure you hold the spray gun vertical and parallel to the target area, at a distance of
between 2" - 10" (5 - 25.5cm). Always begin spraying outside of the target area to prime
the trigger. Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up and down, depending on the spray
pattern. To ensure a complete even finish, you may need to spray over the edge of the
target area. This will avoid a thin coat around the edges of the target area.
NOTE: An even movement of the spray gun results in an even spray.
Keep your wrist straight and parallel to the surface. If you bend your wrist or arm while
painting, the angle of the spray may lead to a heavy paint formation in certain areas,
resulting in an uneven finish.
Note: Never spray while the container is almost or completely empty, when the suction tube
no longer immerses in the spray material, air bubbles will be created causing a break in
the flow, resulting in an uneven spray pattern.
CLEANINg
Turn off and unplug the spray gun, and press the trigger so any painting material inside the
spray gun flows back into the container. Unscrew the container. Empty any remaining paint
back into its original container.
NOTE: Do not return any paint that has been diluted/thinned back into its original
container, dispose of in the correct manner or store in a separate sealed container.
Pour a small amount of appropriate cleaning solution into the container. Clean the
container and dispose of the cleaning solution in an appropriate manner. Refill the
container with a small amount of new cleaning solution. Re-attach the container to the gun,

plug in the spray gun and turn it on. In an empty container, spray the solution through the
gun for approximately 2 seconds, release the trigger and spray again for approximately 2
seconds. Repeat this process until clear cleaning solution emerges from the spray gun.
Unplug the spray gun and then pull the trigger so the remaining material flows back into
the container. Unscrew the container again. Empty the container of any remaining
cleaning solution and dispose of the liquid in the correct manner. Wipe the exterior of the
paint container and the gun until clean.
Unscrew the nozzle cap locking nut and clean it, then remove the nozzle cap and nozzle
and clean them also. Remove the suction tube and clean it, use an appropriate cleaning
solution. Check the container seal and clean with water if required. Reassemble all parts
once they are completely clean.

MAINTENANCE
You should inspect the air filter (A) Fig.6 at the back
regularly to see if it is excessively dirty. If it is dirty, clean
it as follows.
1) Switch off the spray gun and unplug the power cord
from the power source.
2) Unscrew the filter cover (B) Fig.6.
3) Remove and check the filter (A) for dirt. If the filter is
dirty, rinse in clean water and leave to air dry.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the spray gun without the
air filter in place. Dirt could be sucked into the turbine
and may interfere with the operation of the spray gun.
