Operation
Preparing for Operation
Spraying on the sides of water bodies
(lakes, rivers, etc.) or neighbouring surfac-
es in the direct catchment area is not per-
mitted.
When purchasing paint, varnish and spray mate-
rial, pay attention to their environmental com-
patibility.
Preparing the Spray Surface
Note: Cover off the vicinity of the spray surface
thoroughly and generously.
The spray mist contaminates the environment.
When spraying in enclosures, surfaces not cov-
ered can become contaminated.
The spray surface must be clean, dry and
grease-free.
– Roughen smooth surfaces and then remove
the sanding dust.
Diluting Spray Material
When diluting, pay attention that the spray
material and the diluting agent correspond.
When using a faulty diluting agent, lumps can
develop that can lead to clogging of the spray
gun.
Spray material
Wood preservatives,
strippers, oils, finishes
Disinfectants,
plant protectants
Solvent- or water-dilutable
paints, primers,
