Page 7: Operation
OPERATION The AP8GFM spray gun is fed with paint by gravity from the paint container. The air-flow through the air cap draws paint into the nozzle assembly, where it is atomised and sprayed forward. The spray gun is supplied with one nozzle size, (0.8 mm). Ensure your spray gun is matched to the capacity of your compressor. -
Page 8: Paint Thinning
PAINT THINNING Paint thinning is particularly important when spraying. Many paints are supplied ready for brush application and need to be sufficiently diluted for spraying purposes. Always follow the paint manufacturers instructions. If in doubt, always consult the paint manufacturer. A Viscosity Cup (not supplied), will assist in determining the correct thickness of the paint. -

ADJUSTMENTS OF THE SPRAY GUN ADJUSTING THE PAINT FLOW 1. Set the Paint Flow Adjustment knob (8) according to the paint in use and the spray pattern required. (anticlockwise to increase, clockwise to reduce flow). ADJUSTING THE SPRAY PATTERN 1. Turn the Pattern Adjustment knob (9) anticlockwise to give a fan shaped spray pattern, turning clockwise to give a circular spray pattern. - Page 10 To obtain the best results, keep your spray gun level and parallel to the surface at all times.
