3.0 Mode of operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW 550i GT, 2012 BMW 550i GT, 2011 BMW 550i GT, and 2010 BMW 550i GT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Unlike previous apparatus, it is possible here to alter the spray pattern with the air flow control screw (large knurled screw)!
- Twisting the air flow control screw in decreases the air flow and thus reduces the material spray mist.
This facilitates optimum working when preserving open components/surfaces.
- Twisting the air flow control screw out increases the air flow and thus the material spray mist (for closed cavities).
- The trigger lever has two stages.
Stage 1 - discharge of air only.
Stage 2 - discharge of air and material.
- After finishing work, press the first stage to clean the spray hose with compressed air.
- When storing, remember to twist the air flow control screw closed to prevent the material from drying out.
- Clean the gun prior to extended periods of non-use (approx. 2 weeks and upwards).
- To ensure that the spray hoses function properly, do not store the hoses coiled up e.g. in the frame side member area!
Store spray hoses stretched out.
