Preparing the spray material

u

When diluting, make sure that the spray material and
the diluting agent are compatible.

 When using a faulty

diluting agent, lumps can develop that can lead to clog-
ging of the spray gun.

u

When diluting the spray material, make sure that the
flash point of the mixture is above 55 °C again after di-
luting.

 Diluting substances such as solvent-based lac-

quers lowers the flash point.

u

Note the specifications of the paint manufacturer re-
lating to sprayability, e.g. in the technical information
sheet or data sheet. Make sure that you do not spray
any paints that are not suitable according to the man-
ufacturer's specifications.

– Stir the spray material thoroughly.

Using spray material at room temperature will yield a bet-
ter spray pattern.

– Dilute the spray material if necessary.

If the spray test does not produce a good spray pattern,
dilute in 5 % increments until an optimal spray pattern is
achieved.

Filling the spray material (see figures C1–C2)
Note:

 Remove the air hose 

(20)

 before pouring in spray ma-

terial (quarter turn of the bayonet lock 

(21)

 anticlockwise;

pull the bayonet lock 

(21)

 out of the port 

(9)

).

– When using large buckets, pour the spray material into a

smaller transfer bucket 

(14)

 if necessary (e.g. 10 l wall

paint into an empty 2.5 or 5.0 l bucket).

– Hold the spray gun in place with one hand and

use the other hand to turn the container 

(7)

towards the open symbol.

– Pull the spray gun off the container 

(7)

.

– If you are using already opened spray material, place the

thoroughly cleaned filling sieve 

(13)

 on the container 

(7)

to hold back any lumps of paint when pouring in.

– Pour the spray material into the container 

(7)

up to no

more than the 1000 mark

.

– Put the spray gun on the container 

(7)

. Turn

the container 

(7)

 towards the close symbol

until you hear the lock ring 

(6)

 engage.

– Carry out a test-spray run on a test surface.
If the spray pattern is optimal, you can begin spraying.

or

If the spraying results are unsatisfactory or no paint is emit-
ted: (see "Troubleshooting", page 26)

Starting Operation

u

Pay attention to the mains voltage.

 The voltage of the

power source must match the voltage specified on the
rating plate of the power tool.

u

Make sure that the base unit cannot draw in dust or
other contamination during operation.

u

Make sure never to spray on the base unit.

u

Stop spraying if fluid escapes from places other than
the intended nozzle during spraying, and restore the
spray gun to its proper condition.

 There is a risk of elec-

tric shock.

u

Do not direct the fine-spray system against yourself,
other persons or animals.

Switching on (see figure D)

– Check whether the correct nozzle cap is fitted. (see

"Changing the nozzle cap (see figures 

B1

–

B2

)", page 22)

– Plug the mains plug into a plug socket.
– Grasp the spray gun by the handle and point it at the tar-

get area.

– Switch on by pressing the on/off button 

(25)

.

– Set the on/off button 

(25)

 to the required application to

regulate the air flow (see "Setting the air flow (see
figure 

D

)", page 24).

– Pull the trigger switch 

(5)

 on the spray gun.

Note:

 Air always flows out at the air cap 

(2)

 when the base

unit is switched on.

Switching off

– Let go of the trigger switch 

(5)

 and switch off by pressing

the on/off button 

(25)

.

– Pull the mains plug from the plug socket.

Working Advice

Spraying (see figures E–H)
Note:

 Pay attention to the wind direction when you are using

the power tool outdoors.
– Firstly, carry out a spray test and adjust the spray pattern

and the spray material quantity according to the spray
material.
For adjustments, see the following sections.
