Introduction

This High Volume/Low Pressure (HVLP) spray system is designed for applying coatings to surfaces that can be sprayed faster than brushing or rolling and are too small for traditional airless sprayers. Components of this system include a power switch, a power cord, a replaceable fuse, a dual filtration system, a cup holder, an air hose, and an air outlet.

With this HVLP spray system, you can achieve the highest quality professional finish possible with little or no preparation or setup time. Please review all the information contained in this manual before operating the system.

Using an HVLP Spray System

Refer to the following information to operate and understand your HVLP spray system.

Setup
Use the following procedure to set up your HVLP spray system for operation.

1. Plug the turbine power cord into a grounded, 3-slot receptacle.
   WARNING
   Keep the turbine at the maximum possible distance from the spray area to safeguard against explosions or fire that may be caused by sparking electrical parts.

2. Prepare your spray gun for operation. Refer to your spray gun manual for material preparation, setup, and spraying information.

3. Attach the air hose to the air outlet on the turbine.

4. Attach the air hose to the air inlet on your spray gun.

5. Turn on the turbine and begin spraying.

Dual Filtration System
The turbine has two different air filters— one for atomizing air and one for cooling air. The atomizing air filter is a two-stage, fine mesh filter designed to trap particles that may damage your finish. The atomizing air is discharged through the nozzle of the spray gun where it atomizes the coating material. The cooling air filter is a coarse mesh filter designed to allow the proper amount of air flow through the turbine for cooling purposes. Cooling air is exhausted through the cooling air discharge on the front of the turbine.

CAUTION
Clean filters regularly. Clogged filters can cause excessive heat and possibly damage the turbine.

Maintenance

Use the following procedures to keep your HVLP spray system running properly.

Cleaning/Replacing the Filters

1. Remove each filter by grabbing them and pulling them straight out of the filter cans on the turbine. This will not damage the filters.

2. Clean the filters. Either tap the filters to knock out the contaminants or use pressurized air to blow out the contaminants. For material that is not blown or knocked loose easily, soak the filters in soapy water or mineral spirits. Allow the filters to dry completely before placing them back in the turbine.
   NOTE : Do not use highly flammable solvents, such as lacquer thinner, to clean the filters

3. Insert each filter back into its corresponding filter can.
   NOTE : The two-stage, atomizing air filter must be placed in the filter can labeled “2-Stage Filter” with the green side facing the turbine.

After several cleanings, it may become necessary to replace the filters. Refer to the parts list near the end of this manual for the filter replacement kit part number.

Replacing a Fuse

1. Remove the fuse holder cover using a flathead screw driver. Push the screwdriver into the cover and turn the cover counterclockwise
2. Pull the old fuse out of the fuse holder cover.
3. Place the new fuse inside the fuse holder cover.
4. Place the new fuse and the fuse holder cover into the fuse holder. Turn the fuse holder cover clockwise with the flathead screwdriver to lock it into position.
