GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing
an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
A WARNING
DANGER- Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The
grounding wire has green insulation, with or without yellow
stripes.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal120 volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure A.
Make sure the product is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. A temporary adapter which looks like
the adapter illustrated in Figures B& C, may be used to connect
the plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Figure Bif a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should
only be used until a properly grounded outlet (Figure A) can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear lug
or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by
a metal screw.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only a three-pronged extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on
the product. Make sure your extension cord is UUETUCSA listed
and is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough for the current - for lengths less than
18 feet use a No. 18 AWG. or heavier, for more than 18 feet use
No. 16 AWG. If in doubt use a heavier gauge. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
STORAGE
Make sure unit is clean and dry before storing. Store in a dry
location. The electrical cord should not be crimped during storage
to prevent damage.

MODEL DELUXE HOW TO USE
MODEL DELUXE PRACTICE FIRST
Practice spraying water on newspaper or cardboard. This will give you the feel of the
MODEL DELUXE Sprayer and all of its features. Follow the instructions for adjusting to the
proper spray pattern.
1. Check the following: See Figure A.
• Spray Tip is screwed on tightly.
• Remove Container from Cylinder Housing.
• Pick-Up Tube inserted tightly into the long port of the Cylinder Housing port located in
the Cylinder Housing.
2. Fill Container with water, refasten Container to Cylinder Housing.
3. Plug in MODEL DELUXE.
4. Press Switch. Allow a few seconds for the MODEL DELUXE to spray water.
5. As you spray, notice the difference in spray volume and spray pattern while adjusting
the Volume Control Knob. Adjust the Volume Control Knob until you get the best
possible spray pattern.
NOTE: The best distance for spraying is 1 0" -12". Too far away may cause excessive
over spraying and too close may cause excessive stain build-up. See Figure B.
6. Keep a stiff wrist. Do not arch your wrist at the beginning or the end of the stroke. Do
not stop the motion of the unit while spraying. The path of the MODEL DELUXE must
pass beyond the area being stained and the Switch must be triggered on and off as the
MODEL DELUXE passes into and out of the spraying area. See Figure C.
NOTE: Stopping the motion of the MODEL DELUXE or swinging into a new stroke
pattern while water is being delivered will result in heavy water build-up at the edges of
the stroke.
MODEL DELUXE THINNING MATERIALS
In order for your MODEL DELUXE Sprayer to operate properly it is important to make sure
the stain or paint material is thin enough to be sprayed. Thinning should be followed per
the stain or paint manufacturer's guidelines. Because materials differ from brand to brand,
this guide can only be a place to start. The final guide to correctly thinned stain or paint is
achieving the proper spray pattern shown in Figure D. Always follow the coverage rate
recommended by the manufacturer regardless of the thinning required. Because there is
a variance in viscosity between paint and stain brands, it might be necessary to thin
5 to 15 percent to achieve optimum spray pattern.
MODEL DELUXE Spray Tip
Choose the corr,ect Spray Tip for the material you are using. When using thin materials
(stains and sealers) use the smaller sized Spray Tip®. For latex paints and other heavy-
bodied materials use the Ceramic Spray Tip @. The numbers are located in the center of
the nozzle. In order for the MODEL DELUXE to work properly, make sure the Spray Tip
you use is cleaned and not plugged.
NOTES:
• Use the correct Spray Tip for the material being used.
• Be sure Pick-Up Tube is tightly inserted in correct intake port.
• Thin material to proper viscosity, per manufacturer's requirements.
• Before each use, check Spray Tip and Atomizer Valve for wear.
• Always clean and oil sprayer thoroughly after each use.
• When a low humming sound is heard, immediately stop pressing on the trigger, see
MODEL STAIN/PLUS/DELUXE TROUBLESHOOTING.
• Old stain or paint should be strained before using.
• Stir stain or paint slowly, do not shake stain or paint to prevent air bubbles.

MODEL DELUXE HOW TO USE
MODEL DELUXE SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
Caution: Do not twist electrical cord, make sure heavy objects are not placed on electrical
cord. Keep electrical cord away from heat and sharp objects. Make sure cord is not in a
traffic area to avoid tripping of persons. Do not use if cord is damaged.
Appropriate breathing protection, eye protection, gloves and clothing should be used.
1. Empty Container thoroughly and ensure the Container is dry.
2. Deposit the stain or paint material into Container.
3. Begin spraying by pressing the Switch, adjust the Volume Control Knob to get the best
spray pattern. A pattern with heavy spray in center, Figure E1, means the pressure is
too low. Adjust the Volume Control Knob by turning counterclockwise to increase
pressure. A correct spray pattern looks like Figure E2. The stain or paint should be
evenly spread over the surface.
4. If the spray pattern is still not correct, please refer to MODEL STAIN/PLUS/DELUXE
TROUBLESHOOTING.
5. Hold the MODEL DELUXE 10-12 inches from the surface to be stained or painted. Keep
the MODEL DELUXE parallel to the ground without pointing it up or down. See Figure F.
NOTE: TILTING THE MODEL DELUXE IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
NOTE: TO AVOID RUNS AND SAGS DO NOT SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN WHILE
MOVING THE SPRAYER.
6. Overlap each stroke about 1/3 of the spray pattern.
7. To spray inside corners, spray the adjoining walls or surface first. The over spray will
stain or paint the corner.
8. When you spray an outside corner, point the Spray Tip of the MODEL DELUXE in
towards the surface. This will prevent stain or paint from being sprayed past the corner
and onto surfaces you do not want stained or painted.
IMPORTANT
Should a low humming sound and/or irregular spray pattern occur while spraying,
immediately remove plug from electrical source and thoroughly clean. This will prevent the
motor from overheating and causing damage to the MODEL DELUXE. See MODEL
STAIN/PLUS/DELUXE CLEAN UP INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: If you stop spraying for 30 minutes or longer, retest the spray pattern by spraying
on newspaper or cardboard. If you are unable to adjust the spray pattern properly, there
is a possibility that the stain or paint material has started to dry. If this happens, it is time
to clean the MODEL DELUXE. See MODEL STAIN/PLUS/DELUXE CLEAN UP
INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: The small vent hole on the top of the Cylinder Housing must be kept clean. If the
stain or paint material should dry and clog the hole in the Cylinder Housing, your
MODEL DELUXE will not function properly. See MODEL STAIN/PLUS/DELUXE CLEAN UP
INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: If the spray pattern is still not correct, a thorough cleaning of the Spray Tip,
Atomizer Valve assembly, and Pick-Up Tube may be required. Cleaning after every
5-9 gallons of stain or paint may be necessary for correct spraying. After cleaning,
reassemble the parts.
