  • Page 16 Setup Adjust Spray Pattern Do not exceed 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) maximum fluid and air pressure. Higher pressures can cause parts to rupture and result in serious injury. Use the fluid pressure regulator to adjust the spray gun fluid flow. Some models are equipped with a fluid control knob to make pre- cise fluid flow adjustments.
  • Page 17 Setup NOTE: HVLP and Compliant Gun Limits 4. If the spray pattern is too wide or split, reduce the fan air pressure (or slightly HVLP Guns: local laws may limit the maximum close the fan adjustment valve on manifold pressure to 10 psi (70 kPa, 0.7 bar) at the air 288223).

    Operation Operation Pressure Relief Procedure To achieve best results when applying fluid: • Keep gun perpendicular and 6 to 8 in. (150 to 200 mm) from object being sprayed. 1. Turn off all bleed type air valves and all • Use smooth, parallel strokes across sur- other air and fluid supplies to the gun.
  • Page 19 Operation Daily Gun Care NOTICE Methylene chloride with formic or propi- onic acid is not recommended as a flush- ing or cleaning solvent with this gun as it will damage aluminum and nylon compo- nents. NOTICE Solvent left in gun air passages could result in a poor quality paint finish. Do not use any cleaning method which may allow solvent into the gun air passages.
