Introduction:

VMX
is a high output HVLP spray system
designed to handle a wide variety of coatings. This
system offers many advantages; the ability to spray
large quantities of material, less thinning of material,
greater speed, high transfer rates, low overspray,
and high finish quality. The VMX
of a 2hp oil-less compressor, a 2.5-gallon pressure
pot, and Accuspray's model 19c low cfm HVLP
spray gun. Please take a few moments to familiarize
yourself with the operations of the VMX
best results.

See page 4 for a diagram of the system.
Before First Use:
The following tips can help to ensure proper
operation, avoid damage to the system, prevent
personal injury, and extend equipment life.
*Read and follow all safety instructions.
*Read and follow the compressor operations manual
included with this system.
*Always use the proper, grounded extension cord of
appropriate length and gauge (see compressor
manual).
Failure to do so voids all warranties,
interferes with compressor operation, and will greatly
shorten the life of the compressor.
* Always fully release all pressure before opening,
cleaning, or servicing any part of this system.
* Always drain compressor air tanks at the end of
the day to avoid corrosion and cut down on moisture
in system air. Conditions may require more frequent
draining depending on environmental factors.
*Keep the air compressor as far away from the spray
area as possible. Extend the air supply line from the
compressor to the pot instead of increasing
extension cord length. Then move the pot closer to
the spray area.
*Always spray at the lowest possible pressure to
correctly atomize your coating.
wastes material, increases overspray and works the
unit harder than necessary.

Set Up Instructions:
Diagrams illustrating the following instructions are
located on page 5.
1. Place the pressure pot into the cradle ring on the
cart assembly.
2.
Connect the short red air supply hose to the
outlet regulator located on the compressor. This is a
quick coupler connection.
3. Connect the other end of the air supply hose to
the ¼ in. nipple located directly above the gauge on
top of the pressure pot. Fully seat and tighten the
connecting nut. This is a compression fitting and
must be tight to seal. Teflon tape is not necessary.
4. Connect the 35' red air hose to the nipple just
opposite the connection made at step 3.
5. Attach spray gun regulator to the butt of the spray
gun.
Use two wrenches to tighten completely;
failure to do so may damage the air fitting on the butt
of the gun. All connections use compression fittings
and do not require additional Teflon tape.
6. Connect the remaining end of the 35' air hose to
the bottom of the regulator at the butt of the gun.
7. Connect the black fluid hose to the fluid outlet
fitting located on the top of the pot and connect the
opposite end of this hose to the fitting at the front of
the spray gun.
Again, use two wrenches and
completely tighten.
8. Cable ties are supplied to band the fluid and air
hoses together and eliminate line tangle.
9. Check all connections to avoid any leakage.
Start Up/Operating Instructions:
Please refer to the compressor manual for
additional instructions.
1. Plug into appropriate power source.
2. Remove lid from pressure pot, add material to be
sprayed, replace lid and hand tighten until snug.
Always check for a good seal and tighten all bolts
evenly.
3. Turn on the compressor using the on/off switch
located on the pressure switch (see page 5 for
switch location).
4. Compressor will run until air storage tanks are
full.
The compressor will stop when air tank
pressure reaches approximately 125 psi.
pressure can be read at the gauge directly opposite
the on/off switch.
5. Open the pressure pot air supply valve located
on top of the pressure pot directly above the
regulator. When the red handle is up the valve is
open. Close the valve by moving the handle to the
right or left.
6. Slowly turn the dial on the supply air regulator
clockwise until the regulator reads 90 psi.
regulator is located at the compressor.
