Abstract: An HVLP paint sprayer having an inlet air duct equipped with a throttle to control air volume passing through the gun. The duct has a thick wall with a slot extending down from the top just past the bottom of the internal air passage. Close to its top, the slot has on opposite sides a pair of dimples directed towards each other. This is substantially the same size as the air passage and when aligned with it does not obstruct inlet duct air flow. The throttle is positioned by the dimples engaging in recesses and by a rim flange engaging on the outside of the duct. When less air is required, the throttle is pivoted about the dimples and recesses by pressing on the flange portion not abutting on the duct. Thus, the webbed portion of the throttle is brought to one side of the aperture, effectuating a throttle.
