DANGER WARNING: Over-pressurisation can result in explosion
Any attachments used with this equipment should be checked for compatibility with rated pressure before use.
Ensure that the equipment connected to the tank or hose outlet has a higher pressure rating than the regulated air pressure in the
tank. It is important to avoid over-pressurisation to reduce the risk of explosion, injury or damage.
1. General Safety Guidelines
Please read and ensure that you understand all of the operating instructions, safety precautions and warnings in this Instruction Manual before
operating or maintaining this equipment. Most accidents that result from compressor operation and maintenance are caused by the failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions.
An accident can often be avoided by recognizing a potentially hazardous situation before it occurs, and by observing appropriate safety
procedures. Never use this equipment in a manner that has not been specically recommended by manufacturer, unless you rst conrm that the
planned use will be safe for you and others.
Read all instructions carefully before assembling components and operating this equipment. Incorrect procedure could result in damage to the
equipment, severe personal injury and/or property damage. When spraying ammable materials, electric powered products must be placed at
least 20 feet from target in a well-ventilated area. Vapours can be ignited by static discharge or electrical sparks and result in severe personal
injury.
1) Do not spray paints or other inammable uids indoors which have a ash point below 21 degree C, 70 degree F. Keep working environment
well ventilated. Turn off all pilot lights and open ames before spraying.
2) Wear a suitable respirator which is approved for the paint product you are using.
3) Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents with this system, which contains aluminium parts and may explode. Cleaning agents, coatings,
paints, and adhesives may contain halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. Don’t take chances, consult your material supplier to be sure. (e.g.
methylene chloride and 1,1,1 - Trichlorethane).
4) Caution: When a ammable liquid is sprayed there may be danger of re or explosion especially in a closed area.
5) Caution: Arcing parts. Keep the compressor at least 20 feet away from explosive vapours.
6) Caution: Static electricity can be developed by spraying. Ground unit and object to be sprayed. On electric units, unit power cord must be
connected to a grounded outlet. Use only three wire extension cords. Static explosion can occur with ungrounded unit.
7) Always follow the safety precautions and warnings printed on paint container and ensure compatibility before use.
8) Do not pull on hoses to move equipment, DO NOT kink or bend the hose sharply.
9) Keep children, animals or unqualied individuals way from equipment and work area.
10) Conductive metal containers must be used when ushing ammable uids through the system. Always ush at low pressure with spray tip
removed. A metal part of the spray gun must be held rmly against the grounded metal pail when ushing or relieving pressure from the gun.
About this equipment

Do not modify the construction or design of the tank or any other part of this equipment:
Assemble the tank components in accordance with the instructions contained in this user manual. Do not drill into the tank or weld any
attachments to it. Do not alter the design by any means or use the equipment for any other use than it is intended.
Only use approved attachments parts and components:
Use only accessories supplied with this equipment and assembled as shown in these instructions. Do not use non-compatible accessories or re-
placement parts. Contact your nearest authorised Jefferson dealer for advice or telephone [phone] for advice.
Check pressure tank and accessories for damage and correct assembly before use:
Never use this equipment if it is damaged in anyway. Never try to repair a broken part - contact your nearest authorised Jefferson dealer for advice.
Ensure that the equipment is cleaned thoroughly after use and maintained regularly:
Clean and dry the equipment after each use to prevent blockages caused by dirt and debris. Ensure that the ports to the safety valve gauge and
outlet are free of hardened paint or other materials which could prevent free movement of air.
Do not adjust or remove the lid while the tank is under pressure:
Ensure that the air supply to the equipment is turned off then turn the regulator knob counter clockwise to relieve the air pressure before opening
the lid. Check that the tank is not under pressure by pulling the safety valve ring.
Do not use reactive chemicals:
Using reactive chemicals can damage the lid gasket and safety valve seal increasing the risk of equipment failure under air pressure. Do not use
halogenated hydrocarbon solvents with this system, which contains aluminium parts and may explode. Cleaning agents, coatings, paints, and
adhesives may contain halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. Don’t take chances, consult your material supplier to be sure. (e.g. methylene chloride
and 1,1,1 - Trichlorethane).
Do not over-tighten the lid clamps:
Over-tightening the clamps can cause weakening of the lid gasket and reduce the effectiveness of the system and increase the risk of accident. En-
sure that the lid gasket is kept clean to avoid leakage. If the gasket is worn or damaged replace it before use, contact your nearest Jefferson Dealer
for details.

4. Assembly
1. Connect the regulator assembly to the swivel adaptor on the tank lid. Check the bottom of the regulator for the location of the tank collection.
2. Insert the lift handle into the threaded hole in the centre of the tank lid. Tighten the hex nuts with spanner provided.
3. Connect the air supply hose to an air inlet tting on the tank regulator (right or left side optional).
4. Attach the atomisation air hose to an air outlet tting which is directly opposite the air inlet tting.
5. Connect the material hose to the uid outlet adaptor located on the tank lid.
6. Check all ttings and connections are secure before use.
5. Air Pressure Regulator
The pressure regulator is used to manage the amount of pressure applied to the paint in the tank and determines the pressure of the paint being
delivered to the spray gun.
Always start with the pressure in the tank at “zero” and increase the pressure in the tank gradually until the required spray pressure and pattern is
obtained for the job at hand.
Recommended paint tank pressures:
1. Internal Mix Guns: Use higher paint tank pressures up to the maximum pressure (but not exceeding 50lbs).
2. External Mix Guns: Use lower paint tank pressure.
Important: Before turning on the air pressure, screw out the air regulator T-Handle adjusting screw all the way counter-clockwise to shut off the
pressure. Turn on the air, then adjust the regulator to the required pressure (approximately 12lbs for external mix guns). Never exceed 50lbs air
pressure.
6. Operation
1. Before lling the tank, ensure that the paint is thoroughly mixed and strained to remove skins or undissolved particles that might otherwise
block the ow of material through the hose and spray gun.
Note: The 10L Paint Tank can hold most 1 gallon paint tins (these can be set inside the tank without the user having to pour the paint into the
paint tank directly.)
2. Place the lid assembly on the tank and hand tighten the tank lid clamp screws to secure.
3. Shut off the paint tank regulator by turning the T-Handle counter-clockwise. Adjust the compressor regulator to obtain the required air pressure
to the spray gun.
4. Adjust the regulator on the paint tank to obtain the desired air pressure for the materials and surface being sprayed. The higher the painting
surface is above the level of the paint tank, the more pressure you will need for effective spraying. Normal operating pressure on the paint tank is
25 - 30PSI. To reduce the pressure, rotate the T-Handle adjusting screw counter clockwise until the desired pressure setting is obtained.
Important: Never exceed 80PSI pressure when using this equipment.

7. Cleaning & Maintenance
It is very important that the tank, material hose and spray gun are cleaned thoroughly after each use.
WARNING: Always ensure that the air supply is turned off and bleed off any excess pressure in the paint tank by pulling the safety valve ring before
loosening the thumb screw and clamps to remove the lid.
1. Turn off the main air supply to the tank, remove all pressure from the tank be pulling the safety valve ring until the pressure level bleeds down.
2. Turn the -T-Handle adjusting screw on the regulator counter-clockwise until no spring tension is felt.
3. Loosen the thumb screws, tip clamps and tip the tank lid down to one side. Loosen the spray gun sun air cap retaining ring approximately three
turns then turn on the main air supply.
4. Cup a cloth over the air cap on the spray gun and pull the trigger. This will help to force the material back through the hose into the tank.
5. Empty and clean the tank and parts which have come into contact with the spraying materials.
6. Use a suitable non-corrosive solvent to clean the tanks and parts.
7. Replace the lid and secure clamps, reattach the air supply and spray the solvent through the system until it is fully rinsed and sprays clear.
