When the spraying pattern is perfect, start the spray job.

or

When the spraying result is not satisfactory or when no paint 
comes out, please continue as described under “Correction of 
Malfunctions” on page 18.

Filling in Spray Material (see figures B1

–

B2)



Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains 
plug.

– Unscrew the container 

11

 from the spray gun.

– Turn the suction tube 

10

 so that the spray material can be 

sprayed with almost no residue:

– Fill the spray material into the container and screw the con-

tainer firmly to the spray gun.

Starting Operation



Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the 
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with 
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.



Pay attention that the power tool cannot draw in dust 
or other contamination during operation.

Switching On

To save energy, only switch the fine-spray system on when 
you are using it.

– Plug the mains plug into a socket outlet.
– Grasp the power tool and point it at the spray surface.

The power tool is equipped with a two-step trigger switch 

16

. 

The first step starts the turbine. The second step transports 
the spraying material.

– Pull the trigger switch 

16

 until spraying material starts to 

come out.

Switching Off

– Release the trigger switch 

16

.

– Pull the mains plug from the socket outlet.

Working Advice

Spraying (see figures C – D)
Note: 

Observe the wind direction when operating the power 

tool outdoors.

– Firstly, carry out a test-spray run and adjust the spray pat-

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

– Be absolutely sure to hold the spray gun at a consistent dis-

tance of 5 – 15 cm perpendicular to the spray object.

– Begin the spraying procedure outside the target area.
– Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up-and-down, de-

pending on the spray pattern setting.
An even surface quality is achieved when the paths overlap 
by 4 – 5 cm.

– Avoid interruptions within the spray surface.

Guiding the spray gun evenly will provide uniform surface 
quality.

Non-uniform clearance and spray angle lead to heavy forma-
tion of paint mist and thus to an uneven surface.

– End the spraying procedure outside the target area.

Never completely empty the container for the spray material 
by spraying. If the suction tube is no longer immersed in the 
spray material, the spray jet will be interrupted and this will 
result in an inconsistent surface.

When coating material builds up on the nozzle and air cap, 
clean both parts with the corresponding solvent.

Note: 

Only place down the power tool on a level and clean sur-

face so that it can not tip over.

Adjusting the Spray Pattern (see figure E)



Never actuate the trigger switch 16 while adjusting the 
air cap 13.

– Loosen the union nut 

14

.

– Turn  the  air  cap 

13

 to the requested position.

– Firmly retighten the union nut.

Adjusting the Spraying Capacity (see figure F)

– To adjust the requested spraying capacity, turn the thumb-

wheel

Adjustment

Too much material on target area:  The spraying capacity 

must be reduced.

Not enough material on target ar-
ea:

The spraying capacity 
must be increased.
