This is a highly versatile spray kit that can be used with several different spray mediums including varnishes, wood preservatives, enamels, oil and
water-based paints and automotive paints. However some materials cannot be sprayed so please check the recommendation of the manufacturer
before buying the paint. If a material refers to brush application only then it usually cannot be sprayed.
THIS UNIT CANNOT BE USED FOR TEXTURED PAINTS. USE OF THESE MATERIALS WILL CAUSE PREMATURE WEAR, WHICH WILL VOID
YOUR GUARANTEE. TO OBTAIN THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR SPRAY KIT PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
USE.
Preparation of the surface and thinning of the paint are the two most important areas to be concerned with to obtain the best results from your spray
kit. Ensure all surfaces are free from dust, dirt, rust and grease. If necessary rub down with sandpaper, or similar. Masking of areas is important to
ensure you do not spray those areas you wish to remain untouched.
To put the unit together, place the top section with the handle on top of the turbine and secure.
Fill the Paint Container (17) with the material to be sprayed. Take care not to overfill. Stir well. Take the spray gun unit and with the Clamp Lever (22)
turned fully anticlockwise, locate the spray gun unit into the Paint Container (17). Rotate the container until the 2 pins locate into the recesses in the
Yoke (23). Now turn the clamp lever clockwise to secure the paint container to the lid. Do not over-tighten.
Place the motor unit onto a clean and level floor space, free from any loose debris, liquids or dust sheets that could block the motor inlet. Uncoil the
Air Hose (28) and attach it to the back of the spray gun and the other end to the Spray Station. Uncoil the power cord from the base of the unit and
plug in.
ALWAYS KEEP THE MOTOR UNIT AS FAR AWAY FROM THE SPRAYING AREA AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT PAINT CONTAMINATING THE
MOTOR. MASK ANY AREA YOU DO NOT WISH TO SPRAY.
Once you have set up and are ready to spray, switch on the unit. No paint will be sprayed from the gun until the trigger on the spray gun is pulled.
Before starting any work on spraying actual objects we suggest you spend time practicing on cardboard or newspaper until you have got used to how
the gun works.
The gun has 3 different spray patterns – Horizontal, Vertical and Round (Fig.2).
The Horizontal and Vertical sprays are recommended for large surfaces. The round spray is used for
small objects or for areas - such as corners – that are difficult to reach.
To change the spray pattern simply rotate the Air Cap (2) until it clicks into the desired settings as shown
in (Fig.2).
