Disassemble Nozzle and Air Distributor

What happens here

To address the fan pattern control issue, begin by disassembling the front of the spray gun. Unscrew the nozzle from the gun. Once the nozzle is removed, carefully pull off the entire air distributor assembly. This assembly includes the fan control ring and the air distributor plate, which are the critical components for fan pattern adjustment. It's common for these parts to come off together.

Goal: Remove the nozzle and the entire air distributor assembly from the front of the spray gun to access the internal fan control components.
