Safety Instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses conrm that incorrect use and poor
care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.
mWARNING! Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the cordless paint sprayer and
cause it to malfunction, which can lead to personal injury.

Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless paint
sprayer is only partially charged. The battery pack has to
be charged completely before you use the tool for the
rst time.
2. For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge
cycles by charging the battery pack frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 77°F
(25°C) and charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging
process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest
when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when
new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no
longer capable of meeting the high power requirements
needed for the proper operation of your paint sprayer, and
therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open re as this poses
a risk of explosion.
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to re.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive
discharge will damage the battery cells. The most
common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy
storage or non-use of partially discharged batteries.
Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery
falls noticeably or the electronic protection system
triggers. Place the battery pack in storage only after it
has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads
will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside
the battery housing even if this overheating is not
apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace batteries
that have been dropped from a height of more than one
meter or those that have been exposed to violent shocks,
even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be
undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have
suered serious damage. In such instances, please read
the waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.
10. If the battery pack suers overloading and overheating,
the integrated protective cuto will switch o the
equipment for safety reasons.
IMPORTANT! Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more
if the protective cut-o has been activated. This may
damage the battery pack.
11. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries
poses a re risk and may result in injuries or an explosion.

Information about the charger and the
charging process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger
to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating
plate. Never connect it to a dierent mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage.
Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Have damaged cords repaired without delay
by a qualied technician at an authorized Snow Joe®+
Sun Joe®dealer or call the Snow Joe®+ Sun Joe®
customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE
(1-866-766-9563).
3. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded appliances. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
4. Keep the battery charger, battery pack and the cordless
tool out of the reach of children.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other
cordless tools.
6. During periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature
before connecting it to the charger to recharge.
7. Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum
charging times. These charging times only apply to
discharged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or
partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging
and cell damage. Do not leave batteries connected to the
charger for days on end.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that it has
been more than 12 months since the last time they were
charged. There is a high probability that the battery
pack has already suered dangerous damage
(exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below 41°F (5°C) will
cause chemical damage to the cells and may cause a re.
10. Do not use batteries that have been exposed to heat
during the charging process, as the battery cells may have
suered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries that have suered curvature or
deformation during the charging process or those that
exhibit other atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing,
cracking, etc.).
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack (maximum
recommended depth of discharge is 80%). A complete
discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature aging
of the battery cells.
Protection from environmental inuences
1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from
moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous
cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near
vapors and ammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry
conditions and at an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F

Preparation
Material Preparation
The material being used may need to be thinned (diluted)
with the proper solvent as specied by the material
manufacturer. Never exceed the thinning advice given by the
coating manufacturer.
mWARNING! Do not spray material that has a ashpoint
lower than 73.5ºF (23ºC).
After thinning the material, use the viscosity cup included to
test the viscosity of the material. Follow the instruction below
for proper testing the viscosity.
1. Stir the spraying material thoroughly before measuring
viscosity (Fig. 5).
2. Dip the viscosity cup completely into the spraying material
and make sure the cup is lled with the material. Hold the
cup with material over the container, measure the amount
of time in seconds it takes for the stream of the material
owing out to "break" or stop being a constant stream out
of the bottom of the cup. This is the Runout Time (Fig. 6).
3. For proper runout time of specic material, refer the
thinning table below.
THINNING TABLE
Material Reference Runout Time
Oil enamel 25-40 seconds
Oil based primer 30-45 seconds
Latex No thinning required
Oil stain No thinning required
Clear sealer No thinning required
Polyurethane No thinning required
Varnish 20-50 seconds
mWARNING! Do not spray material that has a runout
time greater than 70 seconds.
NOTE: Before lling the spray material into the paint container,
make sure to strain the material to remove any impurities in the
paint, which may enter and clog the system. Impurities in the
paint will give poor performance and a poor nish.
Working Environment Preparation
• Make sure the surface is properly prepared for the best
nish. The surface should be free from dust, dirt, rust or
grease. Lightly pressure wash decks or exterior surfaces
and wait until they are dry to start spraying.
• This cordless paint sprayer is equipped with HVLP
technology, which will help to avoid most overspray issues.
However, it's still recommended to mask all edges and
other areas during spraying. Use drop cloths to protect the
