OPERATINGINSTRUCTIONS
Follow all instructions above, be sure that fittings at pump
outlet and at gun are tight. Use two wrench to tighten the main
fitting. Do not install the spray tip at this time.
Fill the packing nut with oil to help prolong the packing
life.
Put the suction tube into the paint container. Flush the
pump with a compatible solvent before using it.
Open the air inlet valve. Disengage the gun safety and
trigger the spray gun into a grounded metal pail, and slowly
open the air supply valve until the pump stars (about 2 or 3
bar). The lines are purged when the fluid emitted from the gun
is flowing in a steady stream. Engage the gun safety, shut off
the air inlet valve then install the spray tip in the gun.
Open the air inlet valve. When the pump and the lines
are primed, and adequate air pressure and volume are supplied,
the pump will start and stop as the spray gun is triggered and
released.
Disengage the gun safety and you are now ready to
spray!!
MAINTENANCE (CLEANING AND
FLUSHING)
It is recommended that at the end of each day, paint
should be flushed from unit with compatible solvent then
reflushed with mineral spirits.

Engage the gun safety and follow the Pressure
Relief Procedure.
Remove the spray tip and clean with a compatible
solvent and soft brush.
Disengage the gun safety and follow the pressure
relief procedure. Lift suction tube above paint
level until tube is empty.
Introducing the suction tube in a pail with
compatible solvent. Disengage gun safety and
trigger gun into the pail until it runs clear. Close
the air inlet valve.
Open the fluid drain valve. Remove the fluid filter
and the gun filter and clean them with solvent.
Flush the sprayer at the end of each work day and
fill it with solvent to help prevent pump corrosion.
SPRAY TIPS
When a tip is the wrong size, or becomes the wrong size
through wear, the spray pattern worsens, coverage decreases,
you have less control over the desired rate of coverage, and it
takes longer to finish the job. In the worst case, the pump
supplying the tip can be damaged. Because most architectural
coating are abrasive, tip wear can happend quite quickly. Notice
as wear increases the orifice size, it decreases the fan width
which greatly affects coverage rates.
If tip shows excessive wear, replace it to maximize
productivity and save paint.
