Will not spray
Fluid leakage from
packing nut.
Air leaking from air cap
without pulling trigger.

gun.
2)Fluid control screw
not open enough.
3)Material too heavy.
1)Dry packing.
2)Sluggish needle.
3)Tight packing nut.
4)Worn fluid nozzle or
needle.

stem.
2)Residue on air valve
or seat.
3)Worn or damaged
air valve or seat.
4)Broken air valve
spring.
5)Bent valve stem.
1)Gun held too far
from surface.

tank.
3)Thin material.
1) Lubricate.
2) Lubricate.
3) Adjust.
4) Replace.
1)Lubricate.
2)Clean.
3)Replace.
4)Replace.
5)Replace.
1)Move gun closer to

pressure.
3)Move at moderate pace,
parallel to surface.
no arcing.
Move gun further from
surface.
Adjust the regulator on the
tool to the maximum setting.
Adjust the compressor
regulator to tool maximum
of 29 PSI. NOTE: Air hoses
may cause up to 15 PSI loss
in pressure, so you may need
to set a higher compressor
output to maintain the
required pressure at the tool.
