Likely Solutions
1.
Check for loose connections and make sure
that air supply is providing enough air flow
(CFM) at required pressure (PSI) to the
tool's air inlet. Do not exceed maximum air
pressure.
2.
Clean around trigger to ensure free
movement.
3.
Clean air inlet screen of buildup.
4.
Make sure housing is properly assembled and
tight.
5.
Adjust Air Regulator setting.
1.
Check for incorrect alignment and uneven
gaps. If cross-threaded, disassemble and
replace damaged parts before use.
2.
Tighten housing assembly. If housing cannot
tighten properly, internal parts may be
misaligned.
3.
Replace damaged components.
1.
Clean , adjust or replace Air Cap or Fluid
Nozzle.
2.
Clean Paint Filter (27).
3.
Clean, repair or replace Paint Needle (9).
4.
Remove paint and filter it.
