NOTE: When spraying textured products, the use
of a splatter nozzle on the spray gun may be
necessary. The splatter nozzle adds atomizing

material consistency. Refer to the Splatter
Nozzle Instruction Sheet (P/N 313-2468) for
detailed instructions.

20. Increase the pressure by turning the pressure control knob
Engine slowly clockwise and test the spray pattern on a piece
of cardboard. Adjust the pressure control knob until the
Switch
spray from the gun is completely atomized.
NOTE: Turning the pressure up higher then needed to
atomize the material will cause premature tip
wear and additional overspray.
