KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:Precision Atomization: Utilizes HVLP technology to achieve a very fine mist, ensuring smooth, high-quality finishes with reduced material consumption.Versatile Spray Pattern: Offers an adjustable spray pattern ranging from a tight 1.6-inch round pattern for fine detail work to a broad 5.5-inch full fan pattern for larger areas and blending.Efficient Air Consumption: Operates with remarkably low air consumption at just 1.8 CFM at 13 PSI, making it suitable for use with smaller air compressors and ideal for mobile setups or limited air supply environments.Lightweight Design: Weighing approximately 205-220g (7.2-7.8 ounces), its ergonomic design minimizes user fatigue during prolonged use and enhances maneuverability in tight spaces.Reduced Overspray: HVLP technology significantly decreases overspray, leading to less material waste and a cleaner working area.Durable Construction: Equipped with a stainless-steel nozzle, paint passage, and heat-tempered needle, ensuring resistance to corrosion and long-term durability.Easy Maintenance: Designed with a conical seal nozzle and a clear structure for straightforward cleaning and upkeep, promoting extended product life.SPECIFICATIONS:Nozzle Size: 0.4 mmPattern Width: 1.6 inches (round pattern), up to 5.5 inches (fan pattern)Operating Pressure: 13 PSIAir Consumption: 1.8 CFMFeed Type: Gravity FeedProduct Code: 4900Includes: Spray gun only (gravity feed cup typically sold separately)HOW TO USE:Prepare Your Workspace: Ensure you have adequate ventilation and personal protective equipment (respirator, gloves, eye protection).Attach Cup (if applicable): If your model is sold as “gun only,” securely attach a compatible gravity feed cup to the top of the spray gun.Prepare Material: Mix your paint or coating material according to the manufacturer’s specifications for spraying. Ensure it is properly filtered to prevent clogs.Fill Cup: Carefully pour the prepared material into the gravity feed cup. Do not overfill.Connect Air Hose: Securely connect your air hose to the air inlet on the bottom of the spray gun.Adjust Settings:Air Pressure: Set your air compressor regulator to the recommended 13 PSI.Fluid Control: Adjust the fluid knob (usually located at the back of the gun) to control the amount of material flowing through the nozzle.Pattern Control: Adjust the pattern knob (usually located on the side of the gun) to achieve your desired spray shape, from a round spot to a wide fan.Test Spray: Before applying to your final piece, perform a test spray on a scrap piece of material to fine-tune your settings and ensure the desired pattern and atomization.Apply Material: Hold the gun at a consistent distance from the surface, typically 4-6 inches for detail guns. Move the gun steadily across the surface, overlapping each pass to ensure even coverage.Clean Up: Immediately after use, thoroughly clean the spray gun by flushing it with appropriate cleaning solvents. Disassemble the nozzle and needle if necessary for a complete clean to prevent material from drying inside.BENEFITS OF USING IWATA LPH80-042G 0.4MM GRAVITY FEED SPRAY GUN ONLY (4900):Exceptional Finish Quality: Delivers ultra-fine atomization for smooth, professional-grade finishes, crucial for high-end applications.Material Efficiency: HVLP technology significantly reduces overspray, leading to less paint waste and lower material costs over time.Operator Comfort: Its lightweight and balanced design minimizes hand fatigue, allowing for longer work sessions and more precise control.Broad Application Versatility: Capable of handling a wide range of tasks from minuscule spot repairs to blending larger areas, making it a versatile tool for diverse projects.Reduced Air Requirement: Its low CFM and PSI needs allow operation with smaller, more portable air compressors, enhancing mobility and accessibility.Long-Term Reliability: Constructed with high-grade, corrosion-resistant components like stainless steel, ensuring a prolonged operational lifespan and consistent performance.FEATURES:Miniature size for intricate and confined painting areas.Center post configuration for balanced handling.Stainless steel fluid passages for compatibility with various materials.Conical seal nozzle for leak prevention and consistent performance.Adjustable fluid output control.Pattern shaping ring for precise fan adjustment.Ergonomic grip suitable for extended use.Designed for quick disassembly and reassembly for cleaning.
