The stated vibration level applies to the main applications of
the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for differ-
ent applications, with different application tools or poorly
maintained, the vibration level may differ. This can signific-
antly increase the exposure to vibration over the total work-
ing period.
To estimate the exposure to vibration accurately, the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not ac-
tually being used should also be taken into account. This can
significantly reduce the exposure to vibration over the total
working period.
Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the
power tool and application tools, keeping the hands warm,
and organising workflows correctly.
Assembly
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Ensure that the spray gun and base unit are as-
u
sembled completely and with all seals. Only this will en-
sure the function and safety of the fine-spray system.
Connecting the air hose (see figures A1–A2)
Connecting the base unit:
– Insert a bayonet lock (18) of the air hose securely into the
holes in the base unit port (24) according to the arrow
marks.
– Turn the bayonet lock a quarter turn clockwise.
Connecting to the spray gun:
– Insert the second bayonet lock (18) of the air hose se-
curely into the holes in the spray gun port (4) according
to the arrow marks.
– Turn the bayonet lock a quarter turn clockwise.
Note: Remove the air hose (17) before pouring in spray ma-
terial (quarter turn of the bayonet lock (18) anticlockwise;
pull the bayonet lock (18) out of the port (4)).
Attaching the carrying strap (see figure B)
To be able to reach all surfaces to be sprayed and to main-
tain flexibility, you can carry the base unit by means of the
strap (22).
– Attach one strap end to each eyelet (25).
Changing the nozzle cap (PFS 2000)
(see figure C)
Note: Check the spray material by stirring it before selecting
the nozzle cap. Thin-viscosity material (e.g. wood paint) or
diluted material can be sprayed better with the grey nozzle
cap (8). Thick-viscosity material (e.g. wood lacquer or wall
paint) can be sprayed better with the white nozzle cap (9).
– To change the nozzle cap, unscrew the cap nut (3).
– Pull off the air cap (2) and the gasket (11).

– Unscrew the mounted nozzle cap.
When doing so, ensure that the O-ring (10) remains on
the nozzle cap.
– Screw the required nozzle cap into the thread in the spray
gun.
– Put the air cap (2) with the spacer (11) on the nozzle cap
and tighten it with the cap nut (3).
Operation
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.

Work preparation

Spraying on the sides of water bodies (lakes, rivers,
u
etc.) or neighbouring surfaces in the direct catchment
area is not permitted.
When purchasing paint, lacquer and spray material, pay at-
tention to their environmental compatibility.
Preparing the spray surface
The spray surface must be clean, dry and grease-free.
– Roughen smooth surfaces and then remove the sanding
dust.
When spraying, all non-covered surfaces can be soiled by
the spray mist. Therefore, thoroughly prepare the area
around the surface to be sprayed:
– Cover or mask off floors, furnishings, doors, windows as
well as door and window frames, etc.
Preparing the spray material
– Stir the spray material thoroughly.
– Dilute the spray material if necessary.
Spray material
Oils, glazes, impregnations, anti-
rust primers
Solvent-dilutable or water-dilutable
lacquers, primers, radiator lac-
quers, thick-coat glazes
Emulsion paint, latex paint
When diluting, make sure that the spray material and
u
the diluting agent are compatible. When using a faulty
diluting agent, lumps can develop that can lead to clog-
ging of the spray gun.
