Switching the unit ON/OFF. Working instructions :

the gun. Screw the tank onto the gun clockwise.
- Pour the material to be applied into the tank and screw on the lid.
- Always hold the gun at an equal distance from the object. The ideal application distance is approx. 15 cm.
- Determine the appropriate settings by means of a test run.
- Do not switch the device on/off above the application surface, but start and end the procedure approx. 10 cm outside the application surface.
To turn the gun on, press and hold the trigger. To stop operation, release the trigger.
Adjustment of the paint jet
The unit has round and flat spray settings.
Round spray setting:
Use the round spray setting, for example, for small surfaces, corners and edges. Turn the adjuster clockwise.
Flat Spray Adjustment:
Use the flat spray vertically and horizontally for large surfaces.
Turn the adjuster counterclockwise. The nozzle head can be continuously adjusted vertically and horizontally to the desired position by turning.
Adjusting the amount of paint
Notice: The front locking screw serves to limit the adjustment range of the stop screw.
Increasing the paint quantity: Turn the stop screw counterclockwise. Decreasing the amount of paint: Turn the stop screw clockwise.
Adjusting the Air Amount
Note: It is recommended to start with the maximum air volume. To do this, open the air volume control to the maximum setting as described below under
"Increasing the air volume".
Increasing the air volume :
Note: Increasing the air volume is usually a good idea if the spray pattern is too coarse. Turn the air adjustment counterclockwise.
Decreasing the amount of air :
Notice: Decreasing the amount of air is usually a good idea if the paint mist is too heavy. Turn the air adjustment clockwise.

Maintenance and cleaning

Notice: Thorough cleaning after each use is very important for safety and proper operation.
Otherwise, for example, the nozzle will be clogged and the perfect functioning of the device will not be ensured. When cleaning, wear suitable protective
gloves.
Do not use halogenated solvents containing hydrocarbons such as trichloromethyl, ethylene chloride etc., as these react chemically with certain materials in
the spray gun. Dangerous reactions may result.
CAUTION: Never soak the gun completely in solvents.
After each use, spray thinner (outdoors only - risk of explosion!) or water through the unit. Use the supplied brush or a cloth to clean the body of the unit. Never
use petrol, solvents or cleaning agents that could attack the plastic.
First, unscrew the nozzle head by turning it counterclockwise.
Loosen and remove the nozzle by unscrewing it counterclockwise with the supplied mounting wrench. Carefully clean the needle and nozzle with the brush.
After cleaning, screw the nozzle head back on clockwise and tighten it with the supplied mounting wrench. To protect against rust, you can run sewing machine
oil through the product after cleaning. Oil the moving parts from time to time. j The cleaned nozzle, thread and seal should be lightly treated with grease. Do
not use silicone lubricants. Store compressed air equipment only in dry rooms.
