SETUP
Setup
Inventory
Beforeassemblingandusingthespraygun,
thoroughly clean and dry all parts. Please
refer to Cleaning in the MAINTENANCE
section on Page 10 for more detailed
instructions. Make sure all connections are
tight enough to prevent air leaks but not so
tight as to damage the tool.
Your spray gun left our warehouse in a
carefully packed box. If you discover the
spray gun is damaged after you have
signed for delivery, please immediately
call Customer Service at (570) 546-9663
for advice.
Save all packing materials for possible
inspection by the carrier or its agent.
Otherwise, filing a shipping claim can be
difficult.
To setup the spray gun:
1. Attach the gun body to the cup as
shown in Figure 2.
After you have unpacked the box you
should find the following:

OPERATIONS
Spraying
The Model H8222 siphon feed spray gun
set is designed to spray a wide variety of
materials such as lacquers, stains, prim-
ers, multi-component paints, clear coats,
acrylics, epoxies etc. It is ideal for auto
body and woodworking projects.
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
DO NOT smoke or have any source
of flame or spark near spraying.
Vapors will explode if ignited.
To use your spray gun:
1. Read and follow the material manufac-
turer's instructions for spraying, mixing,
safety, disposal, and any other instruc-
tion on the label or Material Safety Data
Sheet (MSDS).
2. Ensure the cup is securely tightened
and all other fittings are secure to avoid
air leaks or material spills.
EYE AND RESPIRATORY HAZARD!
Always wear ANSI approved goggles
and a NIOSH approved respirator
when using spray equipment. Failure
to protect yourself can lead to severe
eye/lung injuries.
3. Set the inlet air pressure (the air coming
to the spray gun) to the lowest pres-
sure recommended in Specifications
on Page 3 or to the material manufac-
turer's recommendations.
4. Adjust the atomizing cap to vertical or
horizontal. See Atomizing Cap and
Fan Adjustments on Page 8 for fur-
ther explanation.
5. Fill the cup with material.
6. Trial-and-error are necessary to
achieve the results you want along with
a fair amount of practice. Test your
material flow and spray pattern on a
piece of cardboard or some scrap of
material similar to your project.
TOXIC FUMES!
Only spray in well ventilated areas
or an approved spray booth. NEVER
spray in a confined space where
toxic fumes and flammable vapors
can accumulate to deadly levels.

7. Adjust the fluid control knob to start
with a low volume of material and keep
the atomization as low as possible.
You will need to use a combination of
fluid control, inlet air pressure, air flow
control and stroke speed to achieve the
results you want. Spray so the material
wets out nicely without running or sag-
ging.
10. Begin spraying 2-3 inches before the
work and continue to the end of the
work. Continue the motion for a few
inches past the work until you are
ready for the return stroke.
11. Maintain an even speed when spray-
ing.
12. Overlap each stroke by 50%. This will
ensure even coverage as shown in
Figure 6. Overlapping less than 50%,
as shown in the figure to the right,
may lead to missed spots or streaky
results.
8. Use the pattern control knob to adjust
the spray fan to your desired pattern.
9. Keep the gun tip perpendicular, parallel
and 6"-12" from the work at all times
when spraying, as shown in Figure
5. Do not allow your wrist to bend.
This will cause the gun to arc across
the surface and distribute the material
unevenly, possibly creating sags and
dry spots.
No
Yes

Figure 6. Overlap technique.
13. The spray stroke should have even con-
sistency and parallel edges. If it doesn't,
please refer to Troubleshooting on
Page 12.
Figure 5. Spray technique.
NOTICE
Tipping the spray gun may cause
material to spill out of the cup. Always
hold the spray gun perpendicular to
the ground to avoid potential spills
and feed problems.

Atomizing Cap and
Fan Adjustments
Pattern
The atomizing cap can be adjusted for
horizontal or vertical spraying patterns.
Spraying in the wrong direction may lead
to material build up on the atomizing cap
horn. Many performance problems are
caused by clogged atomizing holes on the
atomizing cap horns (see Cleaning on
Page 10).
Stroke

with vertical fan pattern.
Rotating the pattern adjustment knob (see
Figure 3) changes the shape of the spray
pattern from a wide spray to a narrow
spray, as shown in Figure 9.

ACCESSORIES
H7274—Campbell Hausfeld™ Pressure
G6261—Campbell Hausfeld™ Water
Regulator
Filter
Since PSI drops through lengths of air
hose, attaching a regulator directly to the
spray gun ensures accurate air regulation
for the best results possible. Provides
regulated output pressure of 0 to 125 PSI
for proper tool operation. Locking pressure
knob prevents accidental adjustments. 15
SCFM flow capacity @ 90 PSI. 1⁄4" NPT.
Filtering out water and oil before it reaches
the spray gun is critical for high quality
spraying results. This filter is rated at 150

PSI maximum air pressure, and has a ⁄4
NPT air inlet.

H3275—1⁄4" NPT x 25' Recoil Hose
H3276—1⁄4" NPT x 50' Recoil Hose
These recoil hoses are great dedicated air
hoses because they are extremely light
weight and maneuverable, which makes
hours of spraying less tiring on wrists and
arms.
We recommend dedicating an air hose for
spraying use only, keeping it clean and
free of water and oil by using a filter on the
incoming end. Multi-purpose red rubber
air hose is flexible and abrasion resistant.
Features 200 PSI rating, 800 PSI bursting
strength, and 1⁄4" NPT ends.

MAINTENANCE
5. Unscrew the atomizing cap and the
Cleaning
fluid tip. The fully disassembled gun
should look like Figure 14.
Proper cleaning is the best way to ensure
trouble free performance from your spray
gun. If your gun is not thoroughly cleaned,
damage and poor spraying will result.
Problems caused by improper cleaning will
not be covered by the warranty. Clean the
spray gun immediately after each use.
6. Rinse all parts thoroughly in solvent,
then dry with compressed air or let
air dry. Try not to expose O-rings to
solvent or they may get damaged.
Note: If the small holes in the atomiz-
ing cap become blocked, soak in clean
solvent. If the blockage still exists,
clear the blockage with a small needle,
taking great care to not enlarge or
damage the hole. Damage to the hole
will create a disrupted spray pattern.
To clean your spray gun:
1. Empty the cup and spray a small
amount of solvent through the gun.
Note: If you are spraying on a regular
basis, spraying solvents into the air
may be illegal. A cabinet style spray
gun cleaner may be required.
7. Use the cleaning brush with solvent to
clean the inner orifice and other hard
to reach areas on the outside of the
spray gun body.
2. DISCONNECT SPRAY GUN FROM

3. Remove the cup and cup lid.
4. Disassemble the gun by unscrewing
the fluid control knob then remove the
spring and needle.

Tricloroethane
and
