– Clean all paint-carrying parts in a bucket with diluting
agent using the cleaning brush (28) or with a commer-
cially available washing-up brush. Also clean the paint
channel (19) of the spray gun (1).
– Check that the suction tube (17) and the container
seal (16) are free of spray material and undamaged.
If required, clean the container seal (16) again with dilut-
ing agent.
– Clean the ventilation hole (18) using the cleaning
brush (28).
– If required, clean the filling sieve (13) thoroughly with di-
luting agent.
– Clean the outside of the container and the spray gun with
a cloth moistened in paint thinner.
– Before mounting, allow all components to dry thoroughly.
– Reassemble the fine-spray system in reverse order.
Slide the container seal (16) upwards again into the
groove of the suction tube (17).
Ensure that the container seal is positioned precisely all
around in the suction tube groove in order to seal the
spray gun correctly.
Make sure that you slide the suction tube (17) all the way
back onto the paint channel (19).
Cleaning the air filter (see figure N)
The air filter (30) must be cleaned occasionally. The air filter
must be replaced if it is heavily soiled.
– Open the air filter cover (29).
Problem Cause
Spray material does not Spraying capacity too low
cover properly
Clearance to target area too large
Not enough spray material on target area, too
few spray paths sprayed over target area
Spray material too viscous
Spray material runs off after Too much spray material applied
coating
Clearance to target area too close
Viscosity of spray material too low
Spray material applied too often over same
spot
Atomisation too coarse Spraying capacity too high
Air flow too low
White nozzle cap (10) mounted (nozzle dia-
meter too large)
Nozzle needle (15) contaminated
Spray material too viscous
Air filter (30) heavily contaminated
Excessive paint mist Too much spray material applied
Air flow too high
Clearance to target area too large

– Remove the air filter (30).
– Light contamination:
Knock on the air filter (30).
or

Material Disposal
Diluting agent and remnants of spray material must be dis-
posed of in an environmentally friendly manner. Observe the
manufacturer's disposal information and the local regula-
tions for disposal of hazardous waste.
Chemicals harmful to the environment may not be disposed
of into soil, groundwater or bodies of water. Never pour
chemicals harmful to the environment into the sewerage sys-
tem.
Storage
– Before putting the fine-spray system into storage, thor-
oughly clean the fine-spray system and allow all parts to
dry completely before assembling them.
Troubleshooting
Corrective measure
Turn the thumbwheel (4) towards setting 5
Reduce spray distance
Apply more spray paths over target area
Dilute the spray material again and carry out a
test-spray run
Turn the thumbwheel (4) towards setting 1
Increase spray distance
Add original spray material
Remove spray material; reduce number of
spray paths over same spot
Turn the thumbwheel (4) towards setting 1
Turn the air flow control (25) to the right
Mount the grey nozzle cap (11) or the black
nozzle cap (12)
Clean nozzle needle
Dilute the spray material again and carry out a
test-spray run
Change air filter
Turn the thumbwheel (4) towards setting 1
Turn the air flow control (25) to the left
Reduce spray distance
