Pattern Control - Grizzly T23092 Owner's Manual

13. Begin spraying 2"–3" in front of
workpiece and continue motion for a
6"
few inches past workpiece until ready
12"
for return stroke.
14. Maintain an even speed when spray-
ing, and overlap each stroke by 50%.
This will ensure even coverage, as
shown on left in Figure 6. Overlapping
less than 50%, as shown on right in
Figure 6, may lead to missed spots or
streaky results.
Correct
Figure 6. Overlapping technique.
15. Spray stroke should have even consis-
tency and parallel edges. If it does not,
refer to Troubleshooting on Page 14.

Pattern Control

The pattern control knob on the rear of the
gun body controls the spray output, from a
round pattern to a wide fan, as illustrated
in Figure 7.

Atomizing Cap
Adjustment
To ensure good spraying results, the atom-
izing cap must be correctly oriented for
the direction of the stroke pattern—either
horizontal or vertical.
Spraying in the wrong direction may lead
to material buildup on the atomizing cap
horn. Many performance problems are
caused by clogged atomizing holes. In this
case, clean the spray gun (see Cleaning
on Page 12).
If the stroke pattern is side to side, the horns
of the atomizing cap must be arranged
horizontally, as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8. Atomizing cap set up for side-to-
side stroke pattern (front view).
Conversely, if the stroke pattern is up and
down, the atomizing cap horns should be
vertical, as shown in Figure 9.

down stroke pattern (front view).
