Operation

Getting Started with Basic
Techniques

Triggering Sprayer

Use a piece of scrap cardboard to practice these basic
spraying techniques before you begin spraying the surface.

Pull trigger after starting stroke. Release trigger before
end of stroke. Sprayer must be moving when trigger is
pulled and released.

Hold sprayer 10 in. (25 cm) from surface and aim
straight at surface. Tilting sprayer to direct spray angle
causes an uneven finish.
