W 550
Start-up
Before connecting to the mains supply, be sure that the supply voltage is identical with
the value given on the rating plate.
● Unscrew the container from the spray gun.
● Aligning suction tube (Fig. 3)
The container contents are to be sprayed out almost completely.
When spraying horizontal surfaces, turn suction tube forward (A).
When spraying objects overhead, turn suction tube back (B).
● Set the container on a sheet of paper, pour in the prepared coating material and
screw the container tightly onto the spray gun.
● Connect the front part with the rear part of the gun (Fig. 4).
● Put the machine down only on a level, clean surface. Otherwise the machine could
tip over!
● Pull the trigger guard. The W 550 has a two-stage trigger guard. In the first stage the
turbine is started. If the trigger guard is pressed further, the material is transported.
● Adjust the spray setting on the spray gun.
Three different spray jet settings can be chosen on the spray gun, depending on
the application and target object.
Selecting the Spray Setting
Fig. 5 A = horizontal flat jet ➟ for horizontal surfaces
Fig. 5 B = vertical flat jet ➟ for vertical surfaces

surfaces
Adjusting the desired Spray Setting (Fig. 6)
With the union nut (2) slightly tightened, turn the air cap (1) to the desired spray-
setting position (arrow). Then tighten the union nut.
WARNING! Danger of injury! Never pull the trigger guard while
adjusting the air cap.
