Priming – Direct from the paint can (or Gemini bucket)
SOLVENT BASED COATINGS CANNOT BE USED WHEN SPRAYING DIRECT FROM THE CAN.
ALWAYS PRIME THE UNIT WITH WATER BEFORE STARTING ANY JOB. ENSURE YOUR PAINT IS AT ROOM
TEMPERATURE. ALWAYS DILUTE USING WARM WATER.

1) If the spray gun is not in the docking station, adjust the paint flow adjuster on the back of the
gun and roll it up to its max position – then place the gun in the docking station (Fig.11).
2) Remove the head unit and place the quart container filled with water into the Gemini paint
bucket and re-fit the head unit making sure the suction tube is fully immersed in the water
(Fig.12).
3) Plug the unit in, set paint speed dial on the unit to 5 (Fig.12), and turn the pump on (Fig.12).
4) When water starts coming out the front of the gun (you will see this in the docking station while
it is on) - turn the pump off
- switch the pump on and expel the remaining water through the gun into the quart cup.
Tip: If the water does not reach the end of the gun, make sure the flow adjuster is rolled up to
maximum and the gun trigger is depressed fully in the docking station.
5) Remove the paint container from the Gemini paint bucket and replace it with the paint mixed
and thinned (if necessary) making sure the pick-up tube drops into the paint (paint can either
be poured directly into the bucket or preferably you can use the paint tin that it comes in).
6) Ensure the paint can is placed under the gun – use the rings on the base of the Gemini paint
bucket as a guide.
NOTE: Make sure the spray gun is firmly placed in the docking station, with the trigger depressed.
7) Turn pump on (Fig.12).
8) When the paint starts to comes through the tip of the gun your unit is primed (this should take
up to 2min). Turn pump off.
9) Uncoil the black air hose from around the bucket, now fit the black air hose to the head unit
and gun using a TWIST motion.
10) Join the 13ft paint tube and black air hose using the clips supplied. Do this at 3ft intervals,
using a tweezer action on the clip, connect the paint tube first. A good tip is that the first clip
should be placed 19inches from the head of the unit. It is also easier to do this with the gun
out of the docking station.
Your Gemini is now ready to spray!
