position. Fill the cup with the desired painting material.

lever.
4. Attach the air supply hose to the air inlet fitting at the
bottom of the gun handle.
5. Turn on the air supply.

Selecting a Spray Pattern

The spray pattern is adjusted by turning the air cap into either
a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal position. To turn the air cap,
grasp the two front tabs and twist. Never trigger the gun while

Spray Pattern Size

To change the spray pattern size without changing the spray
pattern shape, turn the air cap ring.
NOTE: an ideal starting point is when the triangle mark
on the air cap ring (a) is aligned with the triangle
mark on the gun head (b).
Turning the ring clockwise will make the pattern bigger. Turning
the ring counterclockwise will make the pattern smaller. As you
reduce the spray pattern size, you will need to move closer to the
surface.

adjusting the Material and air Flow

Each individual job and material may require slight adjustments
in the material flow and air flow.
Turn the material flow adjustment knob clockwise for less fluid
and counterclockwise for more fluid.
