Adjusting the System
Sufficient fluid output (volume and pressure)
and good atomization are a balance of
atomizing air, material thickness/material
flow and nozzle selection. Achieving the
correct balance for your application requires
experimentation to achieve desired results.
Keep in mind these important points when
adjusting gun:
• Select proper nozzle for your
application. See Nozzle Selection
Chart. Remember, the larger the
nozzle, the heavier the pattern.
• Start sprayer with gun air flow valve
completely open. Trigger sprayer gun. If
needed, slowly close gun air flow until
you get a good spray pattern. Use mini-
mum amount of air at spray gun to
achieve proper spray pattern and to
minimize bounce back.
+ Test spray pattern on cardboard. Hold
gun 18 to 24 in. (45.7 to 61 cm) from
surface. Use this spraying distance for
most applications.
• Air and material flow adjustments are
made at the gun on all units.
