The suction tube is only 5'? I want to paint directly from 5 gal can. Can is 18" tall. Only leaves 3.5' from can to gun. Seems very restricting

Yes, it is very restricting. It's meant to be used with a gallon can of paint that you carry in one hand and hold the sprayer in the other.

To be honest, I didn't purchase this ladder because I needed to paint. I have the much larger one and so bought this one because of the quality and because it's so light weight. Where go you put the paint can on other ladders??

yes, it is intended to spray without thinning the material. Also yes, you are provided with tubes that can be placed in the paint can and used to spray without the attached paint cup. I had problems with spitting and globbing paint when I tried the suction tube method, but not with the attached cup method

I'm afraid it won't fit. Unless you store your paint in smaller containers. You can buy empty (new) paint cans at most hardware store. I would suggest the pint-size cans. I never used the 3 Axis F5 with gallon cans myself, it's a bit two much this shaker I think. It works better with pint-size or smaller. (I'm a fine artist and use smaller containers in which to store my own mixtures of colors. It works great for me. I hope it helps. Dominic

If you tip the paint canister horizontal, aiming the nozzle at the ceiling you'll quickly run out of paint. It will only work when the canister is full. If you are using latex paint - check out my comments.

Because we have had many painting projects recently I have those supplies around our home and was able to use a hook that could be used with any painting can or 5 gal. bucket and was able to attach it to the top of the ladder quite securely. It could be filled with items to move into or out of cupboards or shelves. Any hardware store has those hooks and buckets.

The unit comes with a small compressor about the size of a large loaf of bread. It sits on the floor with a long cord. This unit isn't heavy. The air line that runs from the comptressor to the spray gun is probably 15 feet long. You can leave the compressor on the floor and stand on the top of a ladder with no problem The spran line is plenty long enough and the elect cord is plenty long enough. NOTE: use the best quality paint for this, it will give better coverage lightly sprayed and save going over a second time. One of my best lessons is DONT USE CHEAP PAINT, inside or out.

I actually just got mine to work after a lot of research. Someone posted in a review that you must keep some space between the paint jar and the airbrush. That little niche where you attach the brush and jar? Dont put in the jar all the way. Another thing, is that if the can is too cold (from extended use), you must warm it up to get it to spray at a proper pressure. DO NOT heat up the can too much, just run its bottom under ot water for 2 - 3 seconds, or warm water for like 3 - 5. I actually just keep the can in my lap for warmth - it extends the amount of spraying i can do before the can becomes too cold. I actually just got mine to work after a lot of research.

You will need 3" of clearance, it is 5.5" total but part of that sticks into the aquarium.

Unfortunately you need to hold the gas can about 12 inches from the ground - it pumps very fast so the can gets light fast.

It's all about CFM (cubic feet a minute) not pressure, this spray gun requires quite a lot of CFM and if your compressor cannot supply enough of it than you will have to wait while the compressor can fill your very small tank

The pickup tube does have some range of movement. The 5 foot tube that would go into a larger bucket would allow you to spray in any angle the easiest I. My opinion

Brand new the pump was able to draw well above 6"... But after it was run for a while (often times dry) it would not reliably draw above 15"... I relocated my pump below water level and it still works fine. It's a little slower than I would like so I may be replacing it with a larger pump.

It is a very small, weak little pump. It is great for some applications, but will fall short for anything requiring much flow or lift. I believe it maxed out at 3'-4', but I only needed 18" of lift for my project so it was fine for my needs. Don't forget to put some sort of protection on it to prevent it from running dry, it will kill it.

If you look at their webpage you'll see it's 10' (not 5').http://www.superiorpump.com/Products/Accessories/92000.html

The pickup tube is 12 inches long. I use a 3 1/2 gal. pail from HD. Started with a 5 gal but when full to heavy to move. Each output has an attached plug so you can use only the plugs you wish to use. I have two set and have had no problems with either.

Hello sir, we would like to inform you as you see in the picture, the holding arm is adjustable, and if it is needed, you could adjust the height according to your tub. And the total height is 122cm. May it help you.If it is needed, you may contact us(Faucetland) by email and we will provide a full dimension drawing to you. Thank you!
