Electrical safety
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorised Service Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
• When using the tool outdoors, only use extension cables intended for outdoor use. A suitable rated extension cable of up to 30m can be used without loss of power.
• Electric safety can be further improved by using a high sensitivity.
  Extension cord 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
  When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
  resulting in loss of power and overheating. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-A after the cord type designation.
  For example, a designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use. For proper size cords see chart.

Setup

Warning! Be sure to use appropriate protective gear and unplug unit.
Warning! Make sure area is well ventilated and free of flammable vapours.

Aligning the pickup tube (Fig. B)
The pickup tube (#15) needs to be aligned in the direction toward the front of the canister ( Fig. B).
This will ensure you spray as much material as possible before you need to refill.
Make sure the pickup tube is assembled tight in place.

Attaching spray unit to spray gun handle (Fig. B1)
Align the marking line on the spray unit with the icon of unlock, then rotate the spray gun handle clockwise until stop. Rotate the quick release lock (#20) and
snap onto the hook on the edge of canister lid.

Assemble the universal wheels (Fig. C)
Snap the universal wheels onto the 4 openings at the bottom side of the power unit
Note: Assemble 2 universal wheels with lock (#28) at the front side, and 2 universal wheels without lock (#29) at the back side.

Attaching the air hose (Fig. D1, Fig. D2)

• Insert one end of the air hose into the hose connector of the back of the sprayer. A slight twisting action when inserting the hose will help insure a snug fit (Fig. D1).
• Insert the other end of the air hose into the hose connector of the front of the power unit. A slight twisting action when inserting the hose will help insure a snug fit (Fig. D2).

Liquid material preparation (Fig. E1 and E2)
Tip: Make sure the type of material you use can be cleaned with either mineral spirits or paint thinner (for oil-based paints) or a warm water and soap solution (for water soluble paints like latex). Use drop cloths during pouring, mixing, and viscosity testing of materials to be sprayed to protect your floors and anything else in the spraying area that you wish to remain untouched.

The liquid being sprayed may need to be thinned (diluted) before starting. When thinning, use the proper liquid thinner recommended on the con-tainer by the material manufacturer.

Warning! Do not use materials with a flashpoint higher than 600C.

A viscosity test cup may be used in order to determine the “run-out time” of the material being used.

• Before measuring for the proper viscosity, stir the material thoroughly.
• Dip the viscosity cup into the material being sprayed and fill the cup completely.
• With the cup held over the material container, measure the amount of time it takes for the stream of material flowing out to ”break” or stop being a constant stream out of the bottom of the cup (150 seconds or less) (Fig. E). This is the “run-out time”. Refer to the thinning table for information on the thinning required for different materials.
• If material needs thinning, add the appropriate liquid, thinning material recommended by the manufacturer (Fig. E1).
• It is possible to spray latex paint with this unit, however, the required thinning may exceed material manufacturer’s recommendation. Thin latex paint so that it runs through viscosity cup within 150 seconds. The operator should consider the type of application and final location of the project when spraying a material that requires more than 150 seconds to run through the viscosity cup.

Operation

Thinning table

Spray material| Runout time
Clear and semitranspar- ent stains and sealers Oil based primers, var- nishes and polyurethane| No thinning required (Less than 150 seconds runout)
Solid color water-based

stains

| May require thinning (More than 150 seconds runout)
Note: Not recommended for textured paint

Preparation tips

• Always stir and strain the material thoroughly before use.
• With any spraying job you should always ensure that you have properly prepared the surface to get the best finish. That is, all surfaces are free from dust, dirt, rust and grease. Lightly pressure wash decks or exterior surfaces and ensure that they are dry before spraying.
• Even though HVLP sprayers have very little overspray, it is recommended that you mask all edges and other areas and use drop cloths to protect your floors and anything else in the spraying area that you wish to remain untouched.
• Skin that forms on the top of paint can clog the sprayer. Remove skin before mixing. Strain with a funnel with a filter attached or through hosiery to remove any impurities that could clog system.
• Before starting have gloves, paper towels, rags etc. available for unexpected spills.

Filling the canister (fig. F)

• Check to make sure that the canister is completely screwed onto the sprayer.
• Unscrew the quick refill lid (#12).
• Stand the sprayer firmly on an smooth and horizontal surface
• Pour the properly thinned and strained material to be sprayed into the canister (Fig. F).
• Clean any residual liquid from the threads or sides of the canister and sprayer.
• Starting the threads evenly, screw the lid completely onto the top fill canister. Check the lid to make sure it is threaded on squarely and completely before picking up the sprayer.

ON / OFF switch (fig. G)

The on/off switch is located on the top of the power unit. Press the switch button to turn on or turn off the power unit.

Smart select nozzle selection (Fig. H, Fig. H1)

There are three spray patterns to choose from:

• Vertical Flat Jet
• Horizontal Flat Jet
• Circular Jet

Warning! Risk of injury. Never point the sprayer at any part of the body. Never pull the trigger while adjusting the spray setting.
Adjusting width of spray pattern (Fig. H1)
By turning the Spray Width Lever (#8) between the Minimum marking and Maximum marking, the width of the spray patterns can be adjusted accordingly.

Flow control knob (Fig. I)

The flow control knob (#19) regulates the amount of liquid that can be sprayed. Turning the flow knob clockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning the knob
counter anti-clockwise decreases the flow of liquid.
Tip: Always test the spray pattern on scrap cardboard or similar material first. Begin with flow control knob on the highest flow setting. If less flow is desired,
dial the flow control knob anticlockwise to decrease the flow of liquid. Heavier, thicker materials should be sprayed with the flow control knob on high flow
setting. Thinner materials should be sprayed with the flow control knob on low flow setting.

Developing the proper spraying technique

• Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material such as cardboard to test your spray pattern and become familiar with the flow control feature of the sprayer.

• Ensure surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt, and grease.

• Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could be blown onto newly sprayed surfaces.

• Cover any areas not intended to be sprayed.

• Always spray from a minimum of 50mm to a maximum of 300mm (Fig. J).

• A commonly used method for spraying a large surface is the “criss-cross” pattern. This is done by spraying in horizontal strips and then crossing over these strips with vertical strips. (Fig. L)

• To get an even spray distribution, always keep your arm at the same distance (Fig. J) from the surface you are spraying and avoid moving your wrist (Fig. K).

• Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help avoid inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has begun and release trigger before stopping the
  pass.

• Avoid spraying too heavily in any one area.
  Several lighter coats are better than one heavy coat which can lead to running and dripping.
  Remember that the flow control knob regulates the amount of liquid that can be sprayed. Turning the flow knob clockwise increases the flow of liquid. Turning
  the knob counter-clockwise decreases the flow of liquid. If runs or drips do occur, have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth them out.

• Turn the power unit off and place the sprayer in the built-in dock of the power unit when not spraying for any length of time. If you want to store the tool for
  a long time, follow the cleaning instructions first.

Cleaning
Warning! Be sure to use appropriate protective gear.

• Do not use materials with a flashpoint higher than 60°C ( 140°F) . Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid can produce enough vapours to ignite (see coating
  supplier).
