Coating Materials Not Suitable for Use

Wall paints (emulsion paints) etc., alkali and acidic paints.
Coating materials with a flash point below 21°C.

Preparing the Coating Material

The paints usually need to be diluted for use with the spray gun. Since information on
sprayable dilutions is seldom given on the material tin, you can use the guidelines in the
viscosity table on the following page (viscosity = consistency of the coating material).
Measuring the Viscosity
1. Stir the coating material thoroughly before measuring.
2. Dip the viscosity test cup (Fig. 2) completely into the coating material.
3. Hold the test cup up and measure the time in seconds until the liquid empties out.
(Fig. 2)
This time is called "Runout Time in Seconds".
Spray Material
Thinner-soluble primers
Thinner-soluble varnishes
Water-soluble primers
Water-soluble varnishes
Wood preservatives, strippers, oils
Disinfectants, plant protectants
Automobile spray paint
Start-up
Before connecting to the mains supply, be sure that the supply voltage is identical with
the value given on the rating plate.
● Attach the carrying strap to the unit. (Fig. 3)
● Unscrew the container from the spray gun.
● Aligning suction tube. (Fig. 4)
If the ascending tube is positioned correctly, the container contents can be sprayed
without almost any residue.
When spraying horizontal surfaces, turn suction tube forward. (Fig. 4A)
When spraying objects overhead, turn suction tube back. (Fig. 4B)
● Set the container on a sheet of paper, pour in the prepared coating material and
screw the container tightly onto the spray gun.
● Connect the front part with the rear part of the gun. (Fig. 6)
