Unscrew the front of the Aerofixx to remove the black end cap (spray head).  The blue internal plunger should be visible towards the top of the body of the Aerofixx.

Insert a foil cartridge of Aerosana Visconn or Visconn Fibre into the body.  Make sure the cartridge protrudes slightly from the Aerofixx body.

The end of the foil cartridge (where the foil is gathered together and sealed), should then be pinched to squeeze the Visconn material away from the end and form a point that can be easily cut off. Cut it off with a sharp pair of scissors or cutting pliers.

Next screw the Air nozzle (shaped like a conical tube) into the hole where the material nozzle protrudes.

Set the air compressor to 6.5 bar, then attach the hose to the Aerofixx.

Initially turn the red and blue dial clockwise to the “fully open” position. Then turn it back (anti-clockwise) by half a turn (180°); this is the default position.

Set the material flow-rate by turning the inner ring around the protruding nozzle.  Clockwise towards the line setting, increases flow rate. Anti-clockwise towards the spray setting decreases flow-rate.  The default setting is in the middle; this will produce a medium width spray.

Hold Aerofixx perpendicular to the surface being sprayed at a distance of 10cm away. Use the trigger to start spraying. Start moving the Aerofixx, in the direction you wish to spray, then press the trigger and release the trigger while Aerofixx is still in motion. This will ensure the same thickness of material is consistently applied along the line and at each end.  

The minimum thickness required when spraying Aerosana Visconn is 0.6mm (1/32"). Please check this using a measuring gauge. This thickness is typically achieved when a seamless, slightly wavy, but non-running surface with an "orange peel" texture is formed.

For most efficient and effective coverage, the initial layer of Aerosana Visconn should be sprayed on horizontally with the second layer being sprayed on vertically.  Each strip of Aerosana Visconn sprayed should overlap by 1 third.

To seal and cover gaps of up to 3 mm, the joint must be flooded with Aerosana Visconn.  Spray to one side of the joint at an angle towards the joint so the Visconn flows into the joint without being blasted straight through it.  

For gaps or joints wider than 20mm, spray the surrounding area with Aerosana Visconn then cover with Aerosana Fleece (to bridge the gap). Use a brush to press it into place avoiding any creases or folds and then spray over completely with more Aerosana Visconn.  

Sealing gaps and joints of 3-20 mm in width requires Visconn Fibre. If the gap is over 5mm, spray the Visconn Fibre at an angle of 60° towards the gap.  This will push the Visconn Fibre into the gap and fill it completely.  The thickness of the material sprayed on should be at least half as thick as the width of the gap.

Once the foil cartridge is empty, screw off the spray head and remove the inner material nozzle to reveal the empty foil cartridge. Point the open end of the Aerofixx in or towards a waste container and press the trigger to shoot the empty foil bag out of the tube. It may come out quickly, so make sure it is caught in the container and any splatter can be contained within the waste container also.

Clean the device if necessary and then slide the blue plunger (hanging on a string) back into the cylindrical body of the Aerofixx and insert a new foil cartridge.

When finished for the day, screw off the spray head, remove the material nozzle and remove the tubular bag. Wipe the Aerofixx clean with a damp cloth or paper towel.  Rinse the two nozzles and end cap (spray head) with water.  Collect the water used for washing and dispose of it properly.
