USE OF THE MACHINE

PREREQUISITES

The electric connection has to be 230 V – 16 A – 50 or 60 Hz.
Be careful to only use paints which have not dried and which do not contain dry particles (otherwise, filter the paint with a strainer).
When using a chlorinated product, it is imperative to dilute the product (5% of pure product maximum).
Before use, verify the air filter foam (V). Replace it if it is used or missing by loosening the plastic cover.
Choose the ideal needle kit depending on the paint which will be used. To change the nozzle, loosen the ring (K).
The turbine is equipped with a thermal circuit breaker (T) which stops the motor when it reaches a temperature which is too high. If the turbine fuse has blown, verify that the electrical connection is correct and that the filters (H) and (V) are not clogged up, then press the (T) button to reset the circuit breaker.
Before each use, atomize some water before using the paint to be sprayed.
The set can be used to spray bactericidal products (bleach, etc.). In this case it is imperative to respect the following rules:
- Use the appropriate PPE to avoid any contact of the product with the skin, eyes and respiratory tract.
- Do not spray in the presence of people or animals.
- Wait for objects and surfaces to dry completely before handling.
- Absolutely respect the manufacturer’s recommendations for use (dilution, handling, etc.).
- The product must always be diluted before filling the bowl (maximum concentration of pure product 5%).
- Never spray pure products.
- Once the work is finished, rinse the bowl and gun thoroughly with water to avoid damage to the metal parts.
  The spraying of potentially dangerous products remains the sole responsibility of the users.

Too high a concentration of chlorinated product can lead to corrosion of the gun.

Choice of the atomization kit

The spray-gun can be equipped with 6 different jet nozzles.
Choosing the right atomization kit is essential to obtain a perfect finish. This choice has to be made
according to the work to be done, the kind of paint, the dimensions of the objects and surfaces to be covered (see table below).

Nozzle Ø	Work to be made	Viscosity
0,80 mm	Finishing jobs, low output, small areas, decoration, refinishing,
shadow, stain, etc…	15 seconds	Light, thin, chromate products, etc…
1,30 mm	All kind of varnish jobs, household

appliances, furniture, car bodywork,
aviation, etc…| 26 seconds| All products with normal dilution, lacquer, varnish, oil based, cellulosic, polyurethane,
etc…
1,80 mm| For usual jobs, high output, large areas| +30
seconds| The bottom layer, primer, oil-based paints,
dispersion, etc…
2,20 mm| Thick layer, high output, large areas,
speckled, decorative effects, building, insulation, etc…| Glues, heavy products, minium, Gelcoat,
oil-based varnish, etc…
2,40 mm 2,60 mm

ATOMIZATION

Prepare the surface to be painted (sanding, cleaning, etc…).
Connect the air hose to the connector (J) on the gun side and to the connector (Q) on the turbine side.
Depending on the product to be used, mount the suction rod (B) or the gravity tank (C) to the product inlet connector (A).
Fill the tank (C) with water or dip the suction rod (B) into a bucket of water.
Connect the product hose to the gun connector (I) and to the cart connector (D) with the valve open.
When using the HV460 gun, first connect the rotating coupling (M3) to the product inlet (I) before connecting the product hose. For use with bowl (upper or lower), fill the bowl with water. Leave the valve (D) closed.
To change the bowl of the HV460 gun, refer to its manual.
Connect the cart electrically.
Start the compressor using the switch (F).
Press the trigger while pointing the nozzle at an empty bucket.
Use regulator (G) to change air pressure as recommended by the manufacturer of the product to be sprayed. Wait for a steady stream of water to flow into the bucket.
Pour the product into the tank (C), dip the rod (B) into the bucket of product or fill the bowl (M1 or M2) with product.
Press the trigger with the gun pointing at a bucket. Set the air adjustment (with the knob (G) or (O))
until you obtain a 20 cm jet, holding the gun horizontally. If the spray is too strong, decrease the pressure, if the spray is too weak, increase the pressure.
The unit is ready to be used.
Electrically connect the turbine and activate the switch (R).
For an optimal atomization, hold the spray-gun as horizontal a possible. The paint jet has to be perpendicular to the surface to be painted, with a distance of about 20 cm.
Proceed by crossed sections, horizontal and vertical, directing the diffuser head as needed.
Move the spray-gun with an uniform movement and a regular speed. Release the trigger at the end of each section.
If the movement is too rapid, the risk of a paint lack will be important. If, otherwise, the movement is too slow, bleeding may occur.
To avoid bleeding, press the trigger only after having begun the movement of the spray-gun.
Do not try to cover everything in one layer, prefer applying a second one.

During utlization, use the potentiometer (S) to increase or decrease the air flow-rate into the turbine.

So that the paint is at the ideal viscosity, use the viscosimeter delivered with the turbine.
Dilute a part of the paint with the appropriate thinner.
Fill the viscosimeter to the top and let the liquid flow and monitor the time it takes until the trickle of paint becomes discontinuous.
Check to see if the time corresponds to the indications in the table below:

if the time is longer, increase the dilution
if the time is shorter, add more paint

SPRAY SETTING

To increase or decrease the product flow-rate, use the wheel (N) at the back of the spray-gun:

screw to decrease the flow-rate
unscrew to increase the flow-rate

To increase or decrease the jet width, use the ring (K):

tighten to obtain a wider jet
unscrew to obtain a more narrow jet

To obtain differents jets, direct the diffuser head as indicated below:

SETTING UP OF THE EXTENSION POLE

The extension pole takes the place of the diffuser head and the jet nozzle.
Dismantle the ring (K).
Dismantle the jet nozzle (L2).
Mount the 1,5 mm needle.
Be sure the joint is well placed.
Mount the extension pole with the ring (K).
Block the ring.

CHANGE OF THE ATOMIZATION KIT

Remove the ring (K) and the diffuser head (L1).
Unscrew the setting wheel (N) and remove the spring.
Press the trigger, the needle (L3) comes out easily from its housing.
Unscrew the jet nozzle using the key delivered with the spray gun.
Reassemble the new nozzle jet and screw properly to avoid leaks.
Reassemble the spray gun in the reverse order of the disassembly, with the new diffuser head.

Changing of the atomization kit, verify that the jet nozzle and the needle have the same diameter.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the plug of the machine from the mains voltage before any intervention.

Long spray-gun cleaning

Immerse the rod (B) in a bucket of clear water (after cleaning the strainer with water) or empty the remaining product into the tank (C), clean the inside and outside with water and fill it with clear water.
Spray to circulate the water. This will clean the product passages.

HV460 spray-gun cleaning

Empty the product remaining into the bowl.
Clean the insde and the outside of the bowl with help of a paintbrush.
Fill the bowl with water and spray for circulating it. The product passages will so be cleaned.

If the product manufacturer recommends a specific cleaning product, use it to perform the above operations.

Turbine and trolley cleaning

Use a wet sponge to clean the plastic and metal parts of the impeller and trolley.

The direct projection of water under pressure onto the control panel has to be stopped at the risk of water infiltration into the electric box.

In case of a prolonged standstill or every week

Dismantle and clean the atomizing kit (L)
Clean the inside of the spray gun with little pins and solvant, as well as the tubes
Oil the moving parts of the spray gun with a very fluid oil
Grease with a consistent grease every thread pitch, the front side of the needle nozzle, the 2 springs, and the centring nut which slides into the back plug
Verify and tighten the nut gland if needed
