INSTALLATION Before proceeding, make sure trigger lock is engaged. NOTE 1. Connect your high-pressure fluid hose to the gun fluid inlet and tighten securely. 2. Connect your air hose to the gun air connection and tighten securely. 3. Slowly increase air to the pump to obtain a fluid pressure at the gun’s lower end of the pressure range. A typical starting fluid pressure is 17 bar [250 psi]. Actual starting pressure points may be higher or lower and be dependent on the type of pump used, the type of material sprayed, and the spray gun itself. 4. Using the control knob of the gun air regulator at the air control, set the gun shaping air pressure at 0 bar [0 psi]. 5. To test the spraying pattern, spray a sample piece of wood or cardboard with a fast pass about 30cm [1 ft] away from the surface. The results of the test will allow you to determine the uniformity of the particle size and spraying pattern. 6. If the spraying pattern develops tails or is not uniform, gradually increase the air pressure as necessary to develop a uniform spraying pattern. 1 bar [14 psi] is the maximum inlet air pressure for HVLP air caps, or use 1.4- 2.8 bar [20-40 psi] inlet air pressure for LVMP air caps. 7. If the pattern is still unacceptable, you may gradually increase the fluid pump air pressure in 3
