Intended Use; Before First Use; Preparing The Surface To Be Painted; Viscosity Testing - Westfalia 92 85 76 Original Instructions Manual

Intended Use

 The compressed air gravity paint spray gun is suitable for application of
adhesive substrates and primers and top coats on metal and wood and
for general coating work. Note that abrasive, acid and fuel-containing
materials must not be processed.
 The intended use also includes an operation following the operating
instructions.
 Any use beyond these parameters (different media, applying force) or
any changes (reconstruction, no original accessory) can lead to serious
risks and is regarded as use that is contrary to the intended purpose.

Before first Use

Unpack the air spray gun and the accessory and check all parts for any
damage in transit. Dispose of packaging materials or store it out of reach
of children. There is risk of suffocation!

Preparing the Surface to be painted

The object to be painted, or the surface, etc. has to be clean, dry and free
of grease and dust. Metal surfaces must be stainless. Since the fine
sprayed paint is dispersed in a very thin layer on the surface, roughness
would have a negative effect on the paint result.

Viscosity Testing

Viscosity is the flow rate of a material. Measure the viscosity with a
viscosity cup (not included) as follows:
1. Thin the paint according to the manufacturer's recommendation. Start
with less thinner so you still can and add some thinner later.
2. Mix the paint thoroughly. Pour the paint into the viscosity cup or dip the
cup to the edge into the paint.
3. Measure the time in seconds until the liquid thread breaks off. This flow
time is called DIN-s. Thin the material as much as necessary until the
liquid thread already breaks off after approx. 20 seconds.
