SPRAY PATTERN ADJUSTMENT

ADJUST SPRAY SHAPE
Adjust the spray pattern by turning the air cap ears. The air
cap position will determine the movement direction of the
spray gun.
The positions of the air cap and the corresponding spray
pattern shapes are illustrated below.
Test each pattern and use whichever pattern is suitable for
your application.
NEVER trigger the gun while turning the
adjustment ring. NEVER point the spray
gun at any part of the body.
When changing the spray pattern, make
sure the black retaining ring is not
loosened.
Attention
*The air cap can be set diagonally (round
i
pattern) on the Detail Finish nozzle only.
To achieve a round pattern with the iSpray
nozzle, see the "Adjust Spray Width"
section.
ADJUST SPRAY WIDTH (iSPRAY ONLY)
The spray width lever on the iSpray nozzle determines the
width of the spray pattern.
TIPS:
1.
Start with a narrow fan pattern for painting trim work
(1-5" width) and larger surfaces like doors and walls (>5"
width).
2.
Adjust Material & Air Flow settings as shown in chart
based on coating, fan pattern width, and nozzle.
3.
Fine tune the Material and Air Power settings to achieve
the best results for your application.
4.
Use narrow pattern for detailed work, touch up.
5.
Recommended settings for Material and Air Power may
change if the coating is thinned.
