NOTES:
D Control over-spray mist by using only as much air
as necessary to spray fluid. Lighter fluids require
less air.
D If atomization is still unacceptable, fluids may be
thinned further or a different fluid set may be re-
quired. Refer to page 8 to determine fluid set or
page 9 to prepare fluid.
Spray Pattern Direction and Shape
The spray pattern and direction are determined by the
pattern selection knob (A) fluid adjustment knob (21)
and air cap (15) positions. See Fig. 6.

Selecting the Pattern Shape
The Pattern Selection Knob (A) determines the shape
of the spray pattern. To create a round spray pattern,
set the pattern selection knob (A) to RND. To create a
fan pattern, set the pattern selection knob (A) to FAN.
Refer to Fig. 7.

Setup
Adjusting the Pattern
Change the pattern by adjusting the fluid knob (21)
and pattern selection knob (A).
NOTE: Reducing the fluid flow rate or turning the air
knob to RND will reduce the pattern width. Using air
cap 197056 will create a highly productive, wider
pattern. See Fig. 8.
The air control (B) controls the TOTAL air to the pat-
tern and gun. See Fig. 6.
As the fluid flow rate is reduced the pattern becomes
smaller.
A
Using too much air will cause overspray.
