How to Fix & Repair Your HVLP Spray Gun: Step-by-Step Guide
What happens here
Before reattaching the nozzle, always pull back the needle on the spray gun. This prevents the needle from being damaged by the nozzle during reassembly. Screw the nozzle back onto the gun. First, tighten it finger-tight, then use the Apollo gun tool to snug it up slightly. It's crucial not to over-tighten, as the precision machining of Apollo parts means they fit perfectly without excessive force, and over-tightening can cause damage or leaks. Once reassembled, test the fan control ring again. It should now move smoothly with the correct amount of resistance.
Goal: Reassemble the spray gun and confirm proper fan control ring functionality.
