PREPARATION

• Carefully cover areas which are not to be painted with a plastic cover and protective tape.

• Wear a suitable mask when spraying products (and make sure there is adequate ventilation in the room when working indoors).

• Clean the surface you are going to paint. As well as being clean, it must also be dry and smooth.

• Practice first on some old wooden planks to make sure you are holding the Spray Gun correctly.

• We recommend you wear protective clothing.

• Stir the paint well using a mixer where possible.

• Make sure there are no solid particles in the paint.

• Many products can be sprayed without being thinned. However, if the application is not good, thin the product progressively in stages of 5%.

• Most paints can be sprayed by being thinned just a little, e.g. by 5% or 10%.

• Some thick paints such as outer wall paints and certain undercoats will need to be thinned by 20% or 25%.

• Use water to thin a water-based product.

• Use appropriate thinner to thin solvent-based products.

• Certain manufacturers will indicate on the can whether a specific thinner is to be used.

• Certain paint manufacturers have specific paints available for HVLP application.

Your Spray Station, is a powerful and versatile solution, and comes with two sizes of Needle and Fluid Tip:

• The smaller Needle and Fluid Tip is the most commonly used size for decorative paints.

• The larger Needle and Fluid Tip, which can be easily assembled to the Spray Gun (with the Needle and Fluid Tip Tool (1)), is for thick paints such

as undercoats and smooth masonry paints.

There are other optional Needle and Fluid Tip sizes available to purchase for more specific applications.

SET UP

• Fill the Paint Container (12) with the product to be sprayed. Stir well (as mentioned previously) and strain to remove any bits which will interfere

with a smooth consistent spray.

• Make sure the Paint Container Seal (10) and Pick-up Tube (11) are firmly fitted into the base of the Spray Gun.

• Screw the Paint Container (12) to the base of the Spray Gun and tighten accordingly.

• Start with the Paint Flow Adjuster (9) at its minimum setting so the Trigger can not be pulled. Do not forget that the Paint Flow Adjuster controls the

quantity of paint sprayed (Fig.4).

• Uncoil the air Hose and attach it to the back of the Spray Gun and the other end to the Spray Station.

• Uncoil the power cable and attach the plug to the mains supply.

• Switch the Spray Station on. This will immediately cause some air to be produced, which is quite NORMAL. However, none of the product will be

sprayed until the Spray Gun Trigger is pulled.

• Very important: when spraying for the first time, we recommend that you always leave the motor unit to run for 1 to 2 minutes before applying the

product. Do not forget that the Paint Flow Adjuster controls the quantity of paint sprayed (Fig.4).

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE MOTOR UNIT IS ON A RIGID SURFACE AND FREE FROM DUST.

3 spray patterns

Horizontal and Vertical Spray with varying widths Round Spray

Vertical and Horizontal for normal sized jobs Round for small and precise jobs

The most commonly used technique for painting a large surface is the ‘crisscross’ technique, i.e. you apply the product in a horizontal strips and

then cross over these strips by applying the product in a vertical strips (Fig. 3).

1) To achieve a horizontal strip adjust the Spray Direction Plate to the vertical position then pull the Trigger and move your arm across

to the right.

2) When you get to the end of the line, release the Trigger for a moment and then apply the product in the opposite direction

just beneath the line you have sprayed.

3) Next, to achieve a vertical strip adjust the Spray Direction Plate to the horizontal position then pull the Trigger and move your arm

up and down over the horizontal strips you just have sprayed.

Through gradual movement of the Spray Direction Plate (4) between Horizontal, Vertical and Round spray pattern you can vary the width of the

pattern (Fig.3)

HINT: To obtain the best results always keep your Spray Gun level and at an equal distance from the object you are spraying, ideally 25-30cm

(10“-12”) (Fig.5/6). Let your arm control the movement rather than your wrist (Fig.5/6). This will help give you an even paint distribution.

HINT: HVLP technology produces warm air through the Air Cap allowing the paint to dry quicker which can enhance the final effect.

HINT: For ceilings and floors make sure the Pick-up Tube is properly oriented towards the handle of the Spray Gun.
