Warning!

Attention: Danger of injury by injection!

Airless units develop extremely high spraying pressures.

Be safety conscious!

Never put your ngers, hands or any other parts of the body into

the spray jet!

Never point the spray gun at yourself, other persons or animals.

Never use the spray gun without safety guard.

Do not treat a spraying injury as a harmless cut. In case of injury

to the skin through coating materials or solvents, consult a doctor

immediately for quick and expert treatment. Inform the doctor

about the coating material or solvent used.

The operating instructions state that the following points must

always be observed before starting up:

1. Faulty units must not be used.

2. Secure Titan spray gun using the safety catch on the trigger.

3. Ensure that the unit is properly earthed.

4. Check allowable operating pressure of high-pressure hose and spray

gun.

5. Check all connections for leaks.

The instructions regarding regular cleaning and maintenance of

the unit must be strictly observed.

Before any work is done on the unit or for every break in work the

following rules must be observed:

1. Release the pressure from spray gun and hose.

2. Secure the Titan spray gun using the safety catch on the trigger.

3. Switch o unit.

Safety precautions

1. Safety regulations for Airless spraying

1.1 Explanation of symbols used

This manual contains information that must be read and understood

before using the equipment. When you come to an area that has one

of the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain

to heed the safeguard.

This symbol indicates a potential hazard that

may cause serious injury or loss of life. Important

safety information will follow.

Attention

This symbol indicates a potential hazard to you

or to the equipment. Important information that

tells how to prevent damage to the equipment or

how to avoid causes of minor injuries will follow.

Danger of skin injection

Danger of fire from solvent and paint fumes

Danger of explosion from solvent, paint fumes

and incompatible materials

Danger of injury from inhalation of harmful

vapors

iNotes give important information which should

be given special attention.

HAZARD: INJECTION INJURY

A high pressure stream produced by this equipment

can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to

serious injury and possible amputation.

Do not treat a spraying injury as a harmless cut. In

case of injury to the skin through coating materials

or solvents, consult a doctor immediately for quick

and expert treatment. Inform the doctor about the

coating material or solvent used.

2.1 Application

This high performance airless sprayer is a precision power tool used

for spraying many types of materials. Read and follow this instruction

manual carefully for proper operating instructions, maintenance and

safety information.

2.2 Coating materials

Processible coating materials

iPay attention to the Airless quality of the coating

materials to be processed.

Latex paint, dispersion paints, re protection and thick lm materials,

zinc dust and micaceous iron ore paints, Airless spray primer,

sprayable glue, anti-corrosive agents, thick coating materials and

bitumen-like coating materials.

Viscosity

It is possible to work with high-viscosity coating materials with the

devices.

If highly viscous coating materials cannot be sucked up, they must be

EJMVUFEJOBDDPSEBODFXJUIUIFNBOVGBDUVSFSTJOTUSVDUJPOTwo-component coating material

The appropriate processing time must be adhered to exactly. Within

this time rinse through and clean the unit meticulously with the

appropriate cleaning agents.

Coating materials with sharp-edged additional materials

These have a strong wear and tear eect on valves, high-pressure

hose, spray gun and tip. The durability of these parts can be reduced

appreciably through this.

3.1 Attaching the Tip to the Gun

1. Lock the trigger by rotating the trigger lock forward until it

stops.

2. Attach tip guard and tip to the gun as instructed by the tip

guard or tip manuals.

POSSIBLE INJECTION HAZARD. Do not spray

without the tip guard in place. Never trigger the

gun unless the tip is in either the spray or the unclog

position. Always engage the gun trigger lock before

removing, replacing or cleaning tip.

3. Plug the sprayer into a properly grounded outlet or heavy

duty grounded extension cord.

iDo not use more than 100 feet of cord. If you must

spray a long distance from a power source, use

more paint hose, not more extension cords. Use a

minimum size of 16 gauge extension cord for up to

50 feet in length, or 12 to 14 gauge for extension

cords between 50 and 100 feet in length.

5. Force the inlet valve to open and close by pushing on it with

a screwdriver or the eraser end of a pencil. It should move up

is sucked into the sprayer. This will wet the moving parts and

break loose any old paint residue.

begins to ow through the return tube.

Attention

Always reduce the pressure to zero before changing

the position of the PRIME/SPRAY valve. Failure to do

so may cause damage to the paint pump diaphragm.

Attention

If the pressure control knob is reduced to zero and

the PRIME/SPRAY valve is still on SPRAY while the

sprayer is operating, there will be high pressure in

the hose and spray gun until the PRIME/SPRAY valve

is turned to PRIME or until the spray gun is triggered

to relieve the pressure.

4.2 Pressure Relief Procedure

Be sure to follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when

shutting the unit down for any purpose, including

servicing or adjusting any part of the spray system,

changing or cleaning spray nozzles, or preparing for

cleanup.

The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire surface.

ending the stroke. The spray gun should be moving when the trigger

is pulled and released. Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will

ensure an even coating.

The flow from the spray tip is at very high pressure.

Contact with any body part may be dangerous. Do

not place finger on gun outlet. Do not point the gun

at any person. Never operate the spray gun without

the proper tip guard.

1. Remove the gun from the plastic bag.

2. Stir the water into the paint for latex materials. Remove the

cover from the paint hopper or material container and stir the

paint for all other materials.

6. Test the sprayer on a practice piece and begin spraying.

6.3 Long-Term Storage

Do not allow material to build up on the motor or

the motor will overheat. Do not allow ammable

solvents to come in contact with the motor or they

could ignite.

iYou will need a bucket, cleaning solution, a

toothbrush, a wrench and cleaning rags.

Attention

Do not use mineral spirits or paint thinner on

latex paint, or the mixture will turn into a jelly-like

substance which is dicult to remove.

1. Lock the gun trigger by rotating the trigger lock forward until

it stops.

2. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the

.PWFUIFNPUPS0/0''TXJUDIUP0/7. Turn the pressure control knob to 1/2 maximum pressure.

This will draw the remaining material in the paint hopper

through the pump, up the return tube, and into the material

container.

8. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the

minimum pressure setting.

9. Trigger the gun to relieve pressure and lock the gun.

10. Remove the spray tip and guard and place them into a

container of water or appropriate solvent for the type of

material with which you are painting.

11. Fill the paint hopper with water or an appropriate solvent for

the type of material with which you are painting.

12. Direct the return tube into a waste bucket.

6. Cleanup

Attention

The sprayer, hose, and gun should be cleaned

thoroughly after daily use. Failure to do so permits

material to build up, seriously aecting the

performance of the unit.

Always spray at minimum pressure with the gun

nozzle tip removed when using mineral spirits or

any other solvent to clean the sprayer, hose, or

gun. Static electricity buildup may result in a re or

explosion in the presence of ammable vapors.
