Using the Sprayer
Before spraying for the first
time, practice spraying with
water on newspaper or
cardboard. This will give you
the feel of the sprayer and all
its features.
NOTE: Gun requires lubrication
before each use for the sprayer
to work properly. See page 14
for details on lubrication and
reassembly.

A correct spray pattern will distribute the paint
or stain evenly across the surface.

Keep the gun level and perpendicular to the
wall. Tilting the sprayer is not recommended,
unless using the suction tube.

Turn the flow control knob counter-clockwise to
maximum.

If you can not get a proper spray pattern
by adjusting the knob, you may have to
thin the paint. If still not correct, refer to
"Troubleshooting" on page 15.

Keep the sprayer at right angles to the surface.
This means moving your entire arm back and
forth rather than just flexing your wrist.
2
Begin spraying on a piece of scrap board, paper
or cardboard and adjust the spray pattern by
turning the knob clockwise until you find the
optimal setting. Thin material may spray better
at a lower flow setting.

10"-12"
Hold the sprayer 10 to 12 inches from the
surface. To avoid runs and sags in the paint/
stain, do not speed up or slow down while
moving the sprayer.

Keep stroke even
Make sure to start your stroke before pulling
the trigger and then releasing before the end of
the stroke. Overlap each stroke with about 1/3
of the spray pattern.
