4. Käyttöohjeet

The Fengda FE-130 is a double-action airbrush, meaning the trigger controls both air and paint flow independently. This allows for greater control over your spray pattern.

1. Valmistele maali: Thin your paint to the consistency of milk. Use appropriate thinners for your specific paint type (e.g., water for acrylics, lacquer thinner for lacquers). Proper thinning is crucial for smooth operation and preventing clogs.
2. Load Paint: Pour the thinned paint into the 7ml integrated paint cup. Do not overfill.
3. Adjust Needle Stop (Optional): Knurled screw at the rear of the airbrush handle can be used to limit the backward travel of the needle, thus limiting the maximum paint flow. This is useful for consistent line widths.
4. Start Air Flow: Press the trigger straight down to release air from the nozzle.
5. Control Paint Flow: While holding the trigger down for air, pull the trigger backward to release paint.
   • Pushing the trigger further back increases paint flow.
   • Releasing the trigger forward reduces paint flow.
6. Harjoitella: Practice on scrap material to get a feel for the airbrush's response to trigger movements and to achieve desired spray patterns.
7. Finish Spraying: When finished, release the trigger forward completely to stop paint flow, then release the trigger upwards to stop air flow.

5. Huolto

Proper cleaning and maintenance are essential for the longevity and optimal performance of your airbrush. Clean your airbrush immediately after each use, especially when changing colors or finishing a session.

1. Alkuhuuhtelu:
   • Tyhjennä kupista mahdolliset jäljellä olevat maalit.
   • Add a small amount of appropriate cleaner (e.g., water for acrylics, solvent for enamels/lacquers) to the paint cup.
   • Spray the cleaner through the airbrush until it runs clear. You can also "back-flush" by covering the nozzle with your finger and pressing the trigger for air, allowing air bubbles to clean the cup.
2. Disassembly (for thorough cleaning):
   • Unscrew the handle at the rear of the airbrush.
   • Carefully pull out the needle from the rear. Clean the needle with a soft cloth and cleaner. Be extremely careful not to bend the tip.
   • Unscrew the nozzle cap and then the nozzle itself. Use the provided nozzle wrench if necessary. Clean the nozzle thoroughly with a small brush and cleaner.
   • Clean the paint cup and airbrush body with brushes and cleaner.
3. Kokoaminen:
   • Carefully reinsert the clean nozzle and tighten it gently. Do not overtighten.
   • Replace the nozzle cap.
   • Carefully reinsert the needle from the rear, pushing it forward until it seats correctly in the nozzle.
   • Vaihda kahva.
4. Voitelu (valinnainen): Apply a tiny drop of airbrush-specific lubricant to the needle and trigger mechanism periodically to ensure smooth operation. Do not use petroleum-based lubricants.

Caution: Always handle the needle and nozzle with extreme care as they are delicate and easily damaged.
