Reservoir for the paint, which is connected to the gun by a tube; here a low-pressure zone is created causing the liquid to be sucked in.
vent hole
Opening through which the air enters the container to maintain the atmospheric pressure.
trigger
Device that controls the supply of both air and paint.
air cap
Part directing the compressed air toward the nozzle; here the air comes in contact with the paint jet, which is atomized.
nozzle
Opening through which the paint flows; its size depends on the position of a conical part (pointer).
air hose connection
Threaded part receiving a flexible tube; it is connected to a compressor that allows the compressed air into the body of the gun.
gun body
air valve
Movable part whose opening is regulated by the trigger; it lets compressed air into the gun.
fluid adjustment screw
Screw for controlling the maximum size of a pointer, thereby determining the amount of paint emitted by the nozzle.
spreader adjustment screw
Movable part whose opening is controlled by a screw that controls the volume of air pushed into the air cap, thereby defining the size and shape of the paint jet.
