Material
Air Requirements*
Elastomerics 25 scfm at 90 psi
(textured) (0.7 m
MPa, 6.3 bar)
Simulated 15 scfm at 60 psi
Accoustical (0.42 m
MPa, 4.2 bar)
Splatter Coat and 10 scfm at 40 psi
(0.28 m
Knockdown MPa, 2.8 bar)
Orange Peel 15 scfm at 60 psi
(0.42 m
MPa, 4.2 bar)
* Material, temperature and volume affect cfm needed to properly atomize material.
CAUTION
For detailed engine maintenance and specifica-
tions, refer to separate HONDA engine manual.
CAUTION
Close black fuel shutoff lever whenever you are
transporting sprayer to prevent fuel from flooding
engine.
Keep sprayer upright and level when operating it
and when transporting it. This prevents crankcase
oil from leaking into combustion chamber, which
makes startup very difficult
