f Release the tabs (7).
Note: The paint applicator (6) can not be removed
with the paint tube in place.
Installing the paint TUBE (Fig. D and E)
Note: The paint tube can not be attached until the paint
applicator has been installed.
f Pull the plunger drive (10) to the back of the main body
of the paint edger and clip it in place as shown in Figure D.
f Slide the paint tube (8) forward into the main body of
the paint edger as shown in Figure E.
Note: Ensure the paint tube is fully seated in the main
body by firmly pressing it forward.
f Pull the plunger drive back and up to release it, then
gently guide the plunger drive's (10) tip into the recess
on the top of the plunger.
Note: The plunger drive (10) will not push the plunger
until it has been unclipped from the locked position.
Removing the paint TUBE
f Pull the plunger drive to the back of the main body of
the paint edger and clip it in place.
f Pull paint tube backwards and lift the paint tube out of
the main body of the paint edger.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Filling with paint (Fig. F, G and h)
Caution! Do not use the unit without the paint applicator
securely attached.
Note: Use drop cloths to protect your floors and anything else
in the room that you do not want accidentally splattered with
paint.
Note: Skin that forms on the top of paint can clog the paint
edger. Remove this skin before mixing. Strain using a
funnel with a filter attached or through hosiery to remove
any impurities that could clog the system.
f Pull locking tabs on the fill sleeve (12) down, slide
the paint tube into the fill sleeve as shown in Figure F.
f Squeeze and hold locking tabs together on the fill
sleeve (12) to secure the paint tube in place. Lower
the tip of the fill sleeve (11) into the paint container.
f Fill the paint tube by slowly pulling back the plunger
(9) as shown in Figure G.
Note: Do not over pull the plunger. The paint tube has
a stop which makes it very difficult to pull the plunger
out.
f Remove the paint tube from the fill sleeve. Pull the
plunger back slightly to avoid paint dripping out.
Note: Wipe any excess paint from the paint tube (11)
before reinserting into the paint edger.
Note: Paint sleeve will have excess paint on it. Store
on lid or on the side of the paint can with its built in
clips (13) as shown in Figure h.
Painting with the Paint Edger (Fig. I, j, k and L)
f Install the paint applicator (6).
f Set the flow control knob (3) to the minimum flow
setting of "1" as shown in Figure I.
f Fill the paint tube (8) with paint.
f Install the paint tube (8) in the main body (1).
.
f Pull the trigger (2)
the paint applicator as shown in Figure j. If no paint
appears, increase flow rate by turning flow control
knob in single numerical increments towards 10 until
paint saturates the paint applicator pad.
Note: Once paint is showing on the paint applicator's
(6) foam pad, it is ready to use.
f Keeping the paint applicator flat against the wall.
f Start away from the edge you wish to paint to ensure
paint coverage is appropriate. Pull the trigger (2) and
slowly move the paint edger in toward the edge you
are painting as shown in Figure k.
f Increase the flow of paint to the desired amount by turning
the flow control knob (3) in single numerical increments
from 1-10.
Note: Do not push too hard or the unit will have poor
coverage. The unit will sound overloaded when
pushed too hard. Let the paint applicator float over the
surface.
Note: Temperature and the type of paint being used
will affect the flow rate. Alter both the flow of paint and
the speed at which you move the paint edger to achieve
the best results.
f Using too much paint or moving the edger too slowly
will cause a bead of paint to appear on the edges
of the painted surface. Using a paint brush, roller
or the edger's applicator pad unpowered on the
painted surface, smooth the bead lines with soft
strokes as shown in Figure L.
f Using too little paint or moving the edger too quickly
will result in thin coverage and possible streaking.
Increase the flow of paint to the desired amount by
turning the flow control knob (3) in single numerical
increments towards 10.
Note: Do not pick up or hold paint edger by the paint
tube.
hINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE
f For optimum performance keep the paint edger
perpendicular to the surface being painted as shown
I
in Figure M. f the rear of the paint edger is tilted up
or down this will overload the unit and it will result in
poor paint coverage and sound under powered.
f Always hold the paint applicator flat against the
surface.
f The paint edger can be angled left or right to enable a
clear view of the edge being painted.
f Always use steady movements.
Paint will start to flow slowly into
