Resolución de problemas

Consulta esta sección para ver os problemas comúns e as súas solucións.

• Sputtering or No Spray:
  • Clogged Filter Screen: Check the filter screen located in the sprayer. If clogged with paint film, clean it thoroughly. Wiping it with a finger at each refill can help prevent clogs.
  • Air in FlexLiner: Ensure the FlexLiner bag is properly seated and the paint cup is securely attached to prevent air from entering the system. Air in the FlexLiner can cause the motor to shut off.
  • Batería baixa: Asegúrese de que a batería estea completamente cargada.
• Large Droplets or Inconsistent Spray Pattern:
  • Clogged Blue Tip Shield: Paint buildup on the blue tip shield can block the spray pattern, causing globs. Clean the tip shield regularly.
  • Worn Spray Tip: A worn spray tip can lead to an inconsistent pattern. Replace the tip if necessary.
  • Presión incorrecta: Adjust the pressure setting to match the material and desired finish.
• Motor Shuts Off:
  • Air Leak: Check for proper sealing at the connection between the cup cover and cup support. An air leak can cause the motor to shut off.
  • Sobrequecemento: Allow the sprayer to cool down if it has been in continuous heavy use.
• Water in Paint After Cleaning:
  • Some water may remain in the sprayer after cleaning. Before attaching a new paint cup, tap the trigger a few times to pump out any residual water. This prevents thinning of the initial paint.
