SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Please read these instructions before using the equipment. Grounding This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug.

GETTING STARTED The information in this user manual focuses on the entire spray system. For turbine related content, see pages 14-15. To clean out any impurities that may have accumulated during assembly or shipping, it is recommended spraying a small quantity of clean paint thinner through the spray gun, or water if you will be spraying waterborne paints.

Air Control Valve The air control valve (#2032) is located on the air hose next to the quick connect (#2046). It provides a means of controlling the air flow to the spray gun. It offers control when in need of reducing bounce-back and overspray. It is important to understand that the air control valve (#2032) should be the last adjustment made when dialing in the settings on the spray gun.

Spraying Safely with your HVLP Turbine HVLP spraying is more friendly to the environment than most methods of spraying. It greatly reduces the amount of unnecessary overspray associated with high- pressure conventional spraying. Spraying with certain materials like nitrocellulose lacquer can be hazardous. The lacquer, fumes and overspray are toxic, flammable and explosive.

• Turn fan pattern control knob clockwise. • Loosen the collar. Turn the air cap to a horizontal position then re-tighten the collar to lock it into place. This setting produces a vertical spray pattern. This pattern is used more than any other by experienced spray finishers. •...

SPRAYING TECHNIQUE Correct Method Incorrect Method The spray gun should always be held perpendicular to the surface. For best results, hold the spray gun no more than 6-8” (15-20cm) away from the surface to be sprayed. Horizontal direction of a pass using a vertical pattern starting at top-right corner of the piece.

‘cleaning the brushes’). However, please check with the coating manufacturer for thinning recommendations. The aim is to thin as little as possible. With your D6 Spray System, you can now spray higher viscosity finishes undiluted. For higher viscosity finishes that exceed 60 seconds through a #4 Ford, it is recommended to use a #5 Zahn (#3040) for accurate measurement.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE It is very important to properly clean your spray gun after each use. This will prevent any build-up and/or contamination when spraying other materials. Keeping the spray gun clean will also prevent clogs and blockages. LEVEL 1 CLEANING Cleaning Fluid Passages Depressurize cup and remove lid, then pour left over material into a container Wipe the inside of the cup with a solvent-soaked cloth...

If it is an issue of no power, check the power outlet first. Also, try resetting the breaker of the turbine. The breaker is located at the rear of the case for D6 turbines. All HVLP turbines are designed for intermittent use. When waiting between coats or stepping aside to refill the cup, it is good practice to turn the turbine off during this time.
Page 17
Filters It is important to clean or replace the filters regularly. Operating the turbine unit with clogged or dirty filters will cause the turbine to overheat and result in premature failure. Replacing a filter while still wet will damage the motor while in operation. All Fuji Spray filters are a friction fit.
