Manual spraygun instructions

In this photo you can see 3 important parts of the sprayer: The pump system, the head of the sprayer and the air release valve.

Before screwing the pump system into the head, make sure that the retention valve (silver stainless steel plate) is positioned well on the bottom. Push it with your finger until you are sure it is firmly in place and push the white washer too. Otherwise you run the risk of bending it and not screwing the pumping system tightly.

Then screw on the pump system by turning clockwise and tighten firmly.

It is recommended to sieve the glaze with a No. 100 mesh before using it, to be sure that there are no lumps that could clog the spray system. If the glaze is too thick, splashes will occur or the liquid will not come out at all. In this case, dissolve the glaze with a little water.

Pour the liquid into the container. Do not fill it completely. Up to half maximum as there must be space for pressurized air to enter. Screw the tank tightly onto the head and you are ready to spray!

Before loading the sprayer with glaze, perform the test in the video to verify that no air is leaking from anywhere. You can perform the same test with just air. That is, assemble the sprayer with an empty tank and pump several times, keeping the nozzle covered with your finger. Stop pumping but do not remove your finger from the nozzle; and listen to check if you feel air escaping from any part of the sprayer. The joints where air can escape are: between the pumping system and the head, between the tank and the head, or through the screw on the side. If you do not hear anything, then the sprayer is well assembled. In that case, you can fill it with water and see if it sprays correctly. If you feel that air is leaking from the tank, simply tighten it more. The same for the screw. If the leak is from the pumping system and it is not solved by tightening it more, the problem is probably that when you adjusted the system, the valve was not placed properly at the bottom and it bent. Do not worry. The only thing you have to do is straighten it.

Make sure you clean your spray gun thoroughly after use. Maintenance of your spray gun is simple: Make sure to rinse the bottle well, fill it with water and spray the clean water through the assembly. Leaving glaze, oxides or stains in the siphon hose, head or nozzle to dry will cause clogging in the future.
