Chemical Compatibility
Refer to the following website for a chemical compatibility
chart to ensure that the material you wish to spray is
compatible with the pump components (EPDM,
Santoprene® and Polypropolene).
www.shurflo.com/pdf/industry/CCChart.pdf
C A U T I O N
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT THE
MATERIAL YOU ARE SPRAYING IS COMPATIBLE
WITH THE PUMPS COMPONENTS.
Page 12
C A U T I O N
Due to the nature of this unit, it is imperative the unit
is properly cleaned and flushed using the
appropriate fluids as recommended by the chemical/
compound manufacturer. Failure to clean the unit
after each use will result in the failure of the unit and
will result in loss of warranty coverage.
Do not assume fluid compatibility. If the fluid is
improperly matched to the pumps elastomers, a leak
or damage to the pump may occur. Be certain that
the material being sprayed is compatible with Viton®
Santoprene®, and Polypropolyne.
Attempting to spray liquids below the manufactures
recommended temperatures may affect the sprayers
ability to adequately perform. Low temperatures
may affect your materials viscosity.
Do not leave material in unit in between uses
Do not submerge or expose to excessive moisture

Operating the Sprayer
Keeping all safety and operating measures in mind You are
now ready to begin spraying. By squeezing the trigger
handle you will activate the sprayer to begin “priming” the
pump.
The pump is self priming and will not be damaged by
running dry. Priming time will vary depending on the fluid
viscosity and temperature. Priming should only take a few
seconds, depending on the material. Be certain the fluid
being pumped is compatible with the pump materials,
Viton®, Santoprene® and Polypropylene. For a partial list
of compatible fluids see appendix A. If it is not listed or you
are unsure, contact your chemical supplier. The pump is
intended for continuous or intermittent duty when the
proper operating criteria are met.
NOTE: “Intermittent Duty” is defined as; operated and/or
frequently started within a period of time that would cause
the motor to reach its maximum thermal limits. Once the
maximum thermal limit is obtained, a thermal breaker
switch will interrupt operation until the motor cools down to
normal operating temperature, then it will automatically
reset and resume operation.
Pump may cycle on and off at varying intervals depending
on viscosity and temperature of the material being sprayed.
Clean up
C A U T I O N
As with any type of sprayer, this unit will not function
satisfactorily if the unit is not clean. Thoroughly clean the
sprayer after EACH use by completely flushing the unit,
including all hoses and wand. The cleaning agent should be
whatever is recommended by the manufacturer of the material
that you are spraying. Pump the cleaning agent through the
sprayer until all traces of the previously sprayed material has
been removed from the unit.
