sources or potential ignition sources.
Be aware of appliances that have
pilot lights or machinery that cre-
ates sparks during operation. do not
smoke in the spraying area or when
spraying.
13. untrained & unsupervised
use. untrained operators are not
aware of the safe use of this spray
gun and may injure themselves or
cause fire. All untrained operators
must be directly supervised at all
times if using this spray gun.
14. read
material
labels
and material safety data
sheets (msds). read and know
all the instructions on the packaging
label and the Msds before opening
the package. this information could
save your life.
15. protective clothing. protect
exposed skin from overspray by
wearing a protective suit or other
approved garment.
16. inappropriate use. do not
point or shoot spray gun directly
at yourself or another person or
animals. do not attempt to use the
spray gun for any other use than it
was intended.
9. fire eXtinguishers. Always
have a fully charged multi-class
or class B fire extinguisher in the
immediate area.
10. avoid
unintentional
operation. Always disconnect air

section 3: set up
inventory
assembly
your spray gun was carefully packaged for
safe transportation. remove the packaging
materials from around the tool and inspect
it. if you discover the spray gun is dam-
aged, please immediately call Customer
Service at (570) 546-9663 for advice.
prior to assembly and use of the spray
gun, it is essential that all parts be thor-
oughly cleaned and dried. please refer to
cleaning on page 10 for more detailed
instructions.
Make sure all connections are tight enough
to prevent air leaks but not so tight as to
damage the tool.
save the containers and all packing mate-
rials for possible inspection by the car-
rier or its agent. otherwise, filing a freight
claim can be difficult.
Attach the gun body to the fluid cup assem-
bly, as shown in figure 2. Make sure the
connection is tight to prevent leaks.
When you are completely satisfied with
the condition of your shipment, inventory
the contents.

for the best results, use a hose that
will be dedicated for spray use only.
do not use a hose that has been
used with an in-line oiler or other
possible contaminant. always install
an air pressure regulator between
the air hose and the gun.

section 4: operations
to reduce the risk of injuries from
compressed air explosion, always
disconnect the air line before remov-
ing/installing the fluid cup.
eXplosion hazard! do not
smoke or have any source of flame
or spark near spraying. vapors will
explode if ignited.
spraying
the Model t23092 high-pressure spray
gun 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. this
spray gun is not designed to be used with
waterborne materials.
eye/lung hazard! always use a
niosh approved respirator and eye
goggles when using spray equip-
ment. failure to protect your lungs
and eyes can lead to respiratory
illness, nervous system damage, or
blindness.
note: Use Figure 3 to identify the location
of controls referenced in these instruc-
tions.
to use your spray gun:
1. disConneCt gun FroM Air!
2. 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).
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.

3. Move the cup lock lever against the
vacuum hose connection to release the
pressure between the cup hooks and
pin—this will disengage the cup lid from
the cup.
10. 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.
4. Fill the fluid cup with the desired mate-
rial, then place it on a flat, stable sur-
face.
5. Move the lock lever against the vacuum
relief hose connection, then place the
cup lid and gun body assembly on the
cup
11. use the pattern control knob to adjust
the spray fan to your desired pattern.
12. Keep the gun tip perpendicular, parallel
and 6-12" 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.
6. engage the cup pins with the hooks,
then rotate the lock lever clockwise
until the lid is firmly secured.
to ensure the fluid cup does not leak
or spill material during the spraying
operation, always make sure the cup
is securely sealed to the lid with
both pins fully engaged with the
hooks.
6"
12"
7. set the inlet air pressure (the air com-
ing to the spray gun) to the lowest
operating air pressure recommended
in the tool data sheet on page 3 or
to the material manufacturer's recom-
mendations.
figure 4. spraying technique.
tipping the spray gun may cause
material to spill out of the cup.
always hold the spray gun parallel to
the ground to avoid potential spills
and feed problems.
8. Connect the spray gun to the com-
pressed air.
9. Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical
or horizontal. see atomizing cap
adjustment on page 8 for a further
explanation.
13. Begin spraying 2-3 inches before the
work and continue the motion for a
few inches past the work until you are
ready for the return stroke.
note: 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.

14. Maintain an even speed when spraying
and overlap each stroke by 50%. this
will ensure even coverage, as shown
in on the left of figure 5. overlapping
less than 50%, as shown on the right,
may lead to missed spots or streaky
results.
atomizing cap
adjustment
to ensure good spraying results, the atom-
izing cap must be correctly orientated for
the direction of the stroke pattern—either
horizontal or vertical.
Correct
Incorrect
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. in this
case, clean the spray gun (see ceaning
on page 10)
figure 5. overlapping technique.
if the stroke pattern is side-to-side,
the horns of the atomizing cap must
be arranged horizontally, as shown in
figure 7.
15. the spray stroke should have even
consistency and parallel edges. if it
does not, refer to troubleshooting on
page 12.
pattern control
the pattern control knob on the rear of
the gun body controls the spray output
between a round pattern and a wide fan,
as illustrated in figure 6.
figure 7. Atomizing cap set up for side-to-
side stroke pattern (front view).
Conversely, if the stroke pattern is up-and-
down, the atomizing cap horns should be
vertical, as shown in figure 8.

cleaning.
4. unscrew the atomizing cap with your
fingers, then remove the fluid nozzle
with a wrench. the fully disassembled
gun should look like figure 13.
to clean the spray gun:
1. spray a small amount of cleaning sol-
vent through the 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.
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.

then dry with compressed air or let air

lubrication
Lubricate the following areas shown in
figure 14 with a non-silicon spray gun
lubricant after each cleaning.
do not soak the spray gun body in
solvent. prolonged exposure to sol-
vent will rapidly deteriorate the spray
gun washers and seals.

d. Atomizing Cap threads
e. trigger pin
note: If the small holes in the atom-
izing cap become blocked, soak the
cap 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.
Allow the lubricant to coat threads and run
into the gun body to lubricate all moving
parts and seals.
