– Move the spray gun evenly horizontally or vertically ac-
cording to the spray pattern configuration.
An even surface quality can be achieved when the spray
paths overlap by 4–5 cm.
– When spraying horizontal objects or spraying overhead,
hold the spray gun at a slight angle and move back from
the sprayed surface.
Risk of tripping! Be aware of potential obstacles.
– Avoid interruptions when spraying the target area.
Guiding the spray gun evenly will provide uniform surface
quality.
A non-uniform spraying angle and distance will lead to heavy
formation of paint mist and consequently an uneven surface.
– End the spraying procedure outside the target area.
Never completely empty the container for the spray material
by spraying. If the suction tube is no longer immersed in the
spray material, the spray jet will be interrupted and this will
result in an inconsistent surface.
– After breaks or refilling the container (7), check the
nozzle cap (9) and the air cap (2) and clean them if re-
quired.
– If the spray material settles on the air cap (2) or the
nozzle cap, clean the components with a suitable brush or
a damp cloth.
Adjusting the spray pattern
Never actuate the trigger switch (6) while adjusting
u
the air cap (2).
– Turn the air cap (2) to the required position.

Setting the spray material quantity (see figure F)
(PAINTVolume)
– Turn the thumbwheel (5) to set the required spraying ca-
pacity:
−: Minimum quantity of spraying material,
+: Maximum quantity of spraying material.
– Start with a spray test with the minimum spray material
volume and increase the volume until the required spray
pattern is achieved. If a satisfactory spray pattern is not
achieved, dilute the spray material in 5 % increments Pre-
paring the spray material.
Please note: The intensity of the paint application is highly
dependent on the moving speed.

Dampening Wallpaper
To make it easier to remove old wallpaper, you can spray
warm water on the wallpaper (max. 55 °C). Use the grey
nozzle cap (9) to do so.
Temperature-dependent overload protection
In normal conditions of use, the power tool cannot be over-
Horizontal flat jet
loaded. If the power tool is overloaded or the permitted bat-
for vertical working
tery temperature is exceeded, the electronics of the power

tool will switch off until the temperature returns to within the
optimum operating temperature range.
Work breaks and transport (see figure G–H)
Vertical flat jet for
A carrying handle (21) and a carrying strap (26) are fitted to
horizontal working
the base unit to enable easy transport of the fine-spray sys-
direction
tem.
You can hang the base unit (19) across your shoulder during
work using the carrying strap (26).
The spray gun (1)can be put down on a flat work surface dur-
ing breaks. No spray material can leak out.
Always put the spray gun upright on a flat surface
u
when it is filled with spray material. Spray material can
leak out from a spray gun if it is lying down.
