Figure 3. Controls.

1.Fluid Control: Controls the volume of material that travels through the fluid tip.

2.Pattern Control: Adjusts the spray pattern from a round pattern to a wide fan.

3.Air Flow Control: Controls the fluid pressure inside the spray gun.

4.Atomizing Cap: Controls the spray pattern from vertical to horizontal.

5.Trigger: Two stage trigger. Stage one only releases compressed air for blowing off the work piece. Stage two sprays material. Lightly squeeze the trigger for stage one. Squeeze the trigger all the way to spray.

EXPLOSION HAZARD! DO NOT smoke or have any source of flame or spark near spraying. Vapors will explode if ignited.

RESPIRATORY HAZARD! Always use a NIOSH approved respirator when using spray equipment. Failure to protect your lungs can lead to respi- ratory illness and nervous system damage.

TOXIC FUMES! Always use an approved spray booth or well ven- tilated area when spraying. NEVER spray in a confined space where toxic fumes and flammable vapors can accumulate to deadly levels.

Spraying

The Model G5352 gravity feed spray gun set is designed to spray a wide variety of materials such as lacquers, stains, primers, multi-component paints, clear coats, acrylics, epoxies etc. It is ideal for auto body and woodworking projects. The spray guns are not designed to be used with waterborne materials.

To use your spray gun:

1.Read and follow the material manufac- turer's instructions for spraying, mixing, safety, disposal, and any other instruc- tion on the label or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

2.Ensure the cup is securely tightened and all other fittings are secure to avoid air leaks or material spills.

3.Set the inlet air pressure (the air com- ing to the spray gun) to the lowest pressure recommended in Tool Data Sheet on Page 6 or to the material manufacturer's recommendations.

4.Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical or horizontal. See Atomizing Cap and Fan Adjustments on Page 11 for fur- ther explanation.

5.Fill the cup with material.

6. Trial and error are necessary to achieve the results you want along with a fair amount of practice. Test your material flow and spray pattern on a piece of cardboard or some scrap of material similar to your project.

7.Adjust the fluid control knob to start with a low volume of material and keep the atomization as low as possible. You will need to use a combination of fluid control, inlet air pressure, air flow control and stroke speed to achieve the results you want. Spray so the material wets out nicely without running or sag- ging.

8.Use the pattern control knob to adjust the spray fan to your desired pattern.

9.Keep the gun tip perpendicular, parallel and 8-10" from the work at all times when spraying as shown in Figure 4. Do not allow your wrist to bend. This will cause the gun to arc across the surface and distribute the material unevenly, possibly creating sags and dry spots.

10.Begin spraying 2-3 inches before the work and continue to the end of the work. Continue the motion for a few inches past the work until you are ready for the return stroke.

11.Maintain an even speed when spray- ing.

12.Overlap each stroke by 50%. This will ensure even coverage as shown in Figure 5. Overlapping less than 50%, as shown in the figure to the right, may lead to missed spots or streaky results.

NOTICE

Tipping the spray gun may cause material to spill out of the cup. Always hold the spray gun perpendicular to the ground to avoid potential spills and feed problems.

CONTAMINATION HAZARD! Dispose of paint waste in a responsible man- ner! Follow manufacturer's recom- mendations and local laws regarding disposal.

Atomizing Cap and

Fan Adjustments

The atomizing cap needs to be adjusted for horizontal or vertical spraying patterns. Spraying in the wrong direction may lead to material build up on the atomizing cap horn. Many performance problems are caused by clogged atomizing holes on the atomizing cap horns (see Cleaning on

Page 13).

Cleaning

Proper cleaning is the best way to ensure trouble free performance from your spray gun. If your gun is not thoroughly cleaned, damage and poor spraying will result. Problems caused by improper cleaning will not be covered by the warranty. Clean the spray gun immediately after each use.

To clean your spray gun:

1.Spray a small amount of solvent through the spray gun.

Note: Check with local laws regarding this practice. If you are spraying on a regular basis, spraying solvents into the air may be illegal. A cabinet style spray gun cleaner may be required.

2.Disconnect the gun from the com- pressed air!

3.Unscrew the cup.

4.Unscrew the fluid control knob and remove the spring and needle.

Figure 13. Disassembly for cleaning.

5.Unscrew the atomizing cap with your fingers and the fluid tip with the ser- vice wrench. The fully disassembled gun should look like Figure 13.

6.Rinse these parts thoroughly in sol- vent, then dry with compressed air or let air dry.

Note: If the small holes in the atomiz- ing cap become blocked, soak in clean solvent. If the blockage still exists, clear the blockage with a small needle, taking great care to not enlarge or damage the hole. Damage to the hole will create a disrupted spray pattern.

7.Use the cleaning brush with solvent to clean the inner orifice and other hard to reach areas on the outside of the spray gun body.

8.Wipe the rest of the gun body with a shop towel and dry.

EXPLOSION HAZARD! Chlorinated Solvents like 1,1,1-Tricloroethane and Methylene Chloride (methyl chloride) can chemically react with aluminum and may explode. Many parts in spray guns are made of alu- minum. Read solvent label carefully before using solvent.

NOTICE

DO NOT soak the spray gun body in solvent. Prolonged exposure to sol- vent will rapidly deteriorate the spray gun washers and seals. Ignoring this notice will void your warranty.
