Operation
1. Begin spraying. 
Always keep 
the gun at right 
angles to the 
work (See 
Figure 4).
Keep the nozzle 
about 6 to 9 inches 
from the work 
surface throughout 
the stroke and 
always keep the 
gun in motion while  
spraying.  Stopping gun movement in 
mid-stroke will cause a build up of paint 
and result in “runs.” Do not “fan” the gun 
from side to side while painting. This will 
cause a build-up of paint in the center of 
the stroke and an insufficient coating at 
each end (See Figure 5).
2. “Trigger” the gun properly. Start 
the gun moving at the beginning 
of the stroke BEFORE SQUEEZING 
THE TRIGGER and release the trigger 
BEFORE STOPPING GUN MOVEMENT 
at the end of the stroke. This 
procedure will “feather” (blend) 
each stroke with the next without 
showing overlap or unevenness (See 
Figure 6).
3.   The amount of paint being applied 
can be varied by the speed of the 
stroke, distance from the surface and 
adjustment of the fluid control knob.
4.   Overlap strokes just enough to 
obtain an even coat (See Figure 7). 
NOTE: Two thin coats of paint will 
yield better results and have less 
chance of runs than one heavy layer.
5.   Use a piece of cardboard as a shield 
to catch overspray at the edges of 
the work to protect other surfaces. 
Use masking tape to cover other 
areas if needed.
Maintenance
DAILY CLEAN-UP
Local codes may require specific 
cleaning methods and equipment. 
Follow local codes and manufacturer’s 
recommendations for the use and 
disposal of spray materials and solvent.
 Clean 
 
 spray 
gun immediately after use. Paint and 
other material dry quickly in the small 
passages rendering gun useless due to 
the difficulty of removing hardened 
paint from the passages inside the gun.
NOTE: In the instructions below, the 
use of the word “solvent” refers to the 
specific solvent for the material used 
(eg: lacquer thinner for lacquer, etc ).
1. Spray guns with canister—Remove 
and empty the canister; then rinse 
with a solvent recommended for the 
paint or other material used.
2. Refill canister with clean solvent 
and attach to the gun. Spray solvent 
through the gun while shaking 
the gun vigorously. Wipe the gun 
exterior with a solvent soaked rag. 
Repeat until the gun is clean.
3. Remove the air cap and soak in 
solvent until clean. Use a small brush 
for stubborn stains if necessary. 
Toothpicks or small brushes may be 
used to clean air passages; however, 
NEVER USE METAL OBJECTS 
TO CLEAN PRECISELY DRILLED 
PASSAGES. DAMAGED PASSAGES 
WILL CAUSE IMPROPER SPRAYING.
4. Clean gaskets with a solvent soaked 
rag. To prevent equipment damage, 
Do not immerse gaskets or spray 
gun body in solvents.
5. After using water to clean out water 
based paints or materials, spray 
mineral spirits through the gun to 
prevent corrosion.
6. Use a non-silicone oil on all moving 
parts when reassembling. Use 
Vaseline® or light grease on all 
threaded connections prior to storage.
7. Clean and flush gun thoroughly 
to neutralize any contaminants 
corrosive to the spray gun.
WATER/OIL IN COMPRESSED AIR
All compressor pumps discharge some condensed water, oil or contaminates with 
the compressed air.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause “fish eyes” to appear in the paint 
job. Install appropriate water/oil removal equipment and controls as necessary 
for the intended application.
 
Failure to install appropriate water/oil removal
  equipment may result in damage to machinery or 
workpiece.
