SAFETY WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All children should be kept away from the work area. Don't let
them handle tool.
3. DO NOT OPERATE THE TOUCH-UP GUN IF UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL
OR DRUGS. Read warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or
reexes are impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not attempt to operate.
4. DO NOT SPRAY NEAR OPEN FLAMES, PILOT LIGHTS IN STOVES OR HEATERS,
OR ANY OTHER HEAT SOURCE. Most solvents and coatings are highly ammable,
particularly when sprayed. Always make sure there is adequate ventilation. Extinguish
all cigarettes when painting or cleaning. Industrial applications must follow OSHA
requirements.
5. READ ALL INFORMATION CONCERNING COATING PRODUCTS AND CLEANING
SOLVENTS. Chlorinated solvents, e.g. 1-1-1 Trichloroethane and Methylene Chloride
(also known as methyl chloride) can chemically react with aluminum and may explode.
Many paint sprayers contain aluminum. If you are in any doubt what-so-ever, contact
the solvent or coating manufacturer.
6. MATERIALS USED WHEN PAINTING AND CLEANING MAY BE HARMFUL OR FATAL
IF INHALED AND/OR SWALLOWED. Once again, when spraying, always make sure
there is adequate ventilation. Use a mask or respirator when painting.
7. CHECK ALL SEALS BEFORE CONNECTING TO AIR SUPPLY. Make sure lid is fully
attached to cup, retaining ring is screwed past the rst thread, air pressure plug is
tightened fully, and air supply tube is rmly attached. Never release the lid while the cup
is pressurized.
8. USE EYE PROTECTION. Coatings will cause eye irritation. Wear ANSI approved
chemical splash safety goggles. Goggles are available from Harbor Freight Tools.
When cleaning, be especially careful as solvents can be forcibly ejected from uid and
air passages.

BEFORE YOU USE YOUR TOUCH-UP GUN
A coupler is required to connect the Touch-Up Gun to an air
compressor. Select the coupler, e.g. ¼” “M” style NPT, etc. that
mates with the end of the air hose you are using, and screw
it onto the AIR CONNECTION (#23) located at the end of the
Touch-Up Gun’s handle (see Figure 2).

PATTERN CONTROL
The Touch-Up Gun is capable of spraying in different fan sizes and different shapes. Never
touch the trigger or point the gun at the face or body when adjusting the fan size or jet
shape.
Adjusting Fan Size
Figure 4--
Filling the Paint Gun
CAUTION:When the
CUP contains uid,
always keep the Touch-
Up Gun upright. This
will keep paint from
contaminating portions of
the gun in which it is not
intended to go.
Page 6SKU 00086 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
The fan size is adjusted by turning the FAN ADJUSTING SCREW (#28) clockwise for a narrow
spray and counterclockwise for a wider spray.
Adjusting Jet Shape
The Jet Shape is adjusted by turning the AIR CAP (#1). It should be perpendicular to the
ground to create a horizontal jet and parallel to the ground to create a vertical jet.
Adjusting Paint Output
The Volume Output is adjusted by turning the VOLUME ADJUSTMENT SCREW (#12)
clockwise to reduce the output and counterclockwise to increase the output.

SPRAYING TECHNIQUES
Your Touch-Up Gun is designed for light touch-up work, stenciling, and small job duties. For
heavy or medium production work, we suggest our H.V.L.P. and professional model spray guns.
For most uses, e.g. painting walls, benches, vehicles, etc., the best results are obtained by
spraying thin, even coats of paint. Let the layers dry in between coats.
As with any manual process, practice leads to perfection. The following are a few general rules
that may be of help in perfecting your process:
• Use the lowest pressure setting
recommended by the paint manufacturer.
• Keep the gun perpendicular to the ground.
• Maintain a distance of about 8” from the work
as shown in Figure 5.
• Make smooth, thin and even strokes across the
work.
• Overlap each stroke by about 50%. (See Figure
6)
• Let each coat dry before re-coating.
• When painting with metallic, pearls, etc., always
cross coat the paint.
CAUTION:Always keep the LID (#32)
tight when connected to the air source.

MAINTENANCE
General Maintenance
Checking & Replacing the Needle
Needle wear is expexcted and inspection during Cleaning will ensure the continued top-
performance of your Touch-Up Gun. If needle tip wear is noted:
Step 1. Unscrew the FAN ADJUSTING
SCREW (#28) and remove the
SPRING (#27).
Step 2. Using a pair of pliers or other
suitable device, carefully pull and
twist the NEEDLE ASSEMBLY
(#24”S”) until it has been removed.
Step 3. Purchase an identical replacement NEEDLE ASSEMBLY from Harbor Freight
Tools.
Step 4. By hand, carefully insert the needle into the GUN HOUSING (#5) and push until
the tip has exited the hole in the AIR CAP (#1).
Step 5. Place the SPRING over the NEEDLE ASSEMBLY and insert it into the
SPRAYER HOUSING.
Step 6. Replace the ADJUSTING SCREW and readjust its setting to the position it was in
before removed (refer to Step 1).
NOTE (Step 1)Before unscrewing the
ADJUSTMENT SCREW, place a mark on the
ADJUSTMENT SCREW where it meets the
GUN HOUSING (#13). This will make re-
adjusting the gun, after maintenance, easier.
