Spraying technique
Injection hazard.  Do not spray without the tip 
guard in place.  NEVER trigger the gun unless 
the tip is completely turned to either the spray 
or the unclog position.  ALWAyS engage the 
gun trigger lock before removing, replacing or 
cleaning tip.
The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire 
surface. Keep your arm moving at a constant speed and keep
the spray gun at a constant distance from the surface.  The best 
spraying distance is 25 to 30 cm between the spray tip and the 
surface.  
25 - 30 cm
Keep the spray gun at right angles to the surface. This means
moving your entire arm back and forth rather than just flexing
your wrist.
Keep the spray gun perpendicular to the surface, otherwise one
end of the pattern will be thicker than the other.
Trigger gun after starting the stroke.  Release the trigger before 
ending the stroke.  The spray gun should be moving when the 
trigger is pulled and released.  Overlap each stroke by about 
30%.  This will ensure an even coating.

If very sharp edges result or if there are streaks 
in the spray jet – increase the operating pressure 
or dilute the coating material.

Handling the high-pressure hose

smallest bending radius amounts to about 20 cm.
Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect against sharp 
objects and edges.
Danger of injury through leaking high-pressure 
hose. Replace any damaged high-pressure hose 
immediately.
