Operation
Adjusting the Pressure
• To reduce the risk of injection, never hold your
hand, body, fingers or hand in a rag in front of the
spray tip when cleaning or checking for a cleared
tip. Always point the gun toward the ground or into
a waste container when checking to see if the tip is
cleared or when using a self cleaning tip.
• When you spray into the paint bucket, always use
the lowest spray pressure and maintain firm metal
to metal contact between the gun and container.
• To stop the unit in an emergency, turn the engine
off. Then relieve the fluid pressure in the pump and
hose. See Pressure Relief Procedure, page 7
When adjusting the pressure, turn the Pressure Control
Knob clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure. Always use the lowest pressure necessary to completely atomize the material. If
more coverage is needed, use a larger tip rather than
increasing the pressure.
NOTE: Operating the sprayer at higher pressure than
needed wastes material, causes early tip wear, and
shortens sprayer life.
Storage
Short Term
1. Flush sprayer with compatible solvent before storing, then fill the pump and hoses with an oil based
solvent such as mineral spirits or Graco or Airlessco
Pump Armor.
•For oil base paint: flush with mineral spirits
•For water-base paint: flush with water, then min-
eral spirits and leave the pump, hose and gun
filled with mineral spirits.
Long Term
For longer storage, use Graco or Airlessco Pump Armor.
Shut off sprayer, Relieve Pressure, page 7, and make
sure prime valve is left open.
Start Up After Storage
Before using water-base paint, flush sprayer with soapy
water and then a clean water flush. When using oil-base
paint, flush out the mineral spirits with the material to be
sprayed.
NOTE: Always store unit indoors.
NOTE: Check the spray pattern. The tip size and angle
determines the pattern width and flow rate.
Shutdown
1. Relieve Pressure, page 7.
2. Clean the tip and gun as recommended in the separate Gun Manual supplied with the gun.
3. If spraying water-based material or a material that
could harden in the sprayer overnight, flush the
sprayer after use. See Flushing, page 8.

Maintenance
Regular Maintenance
1. Always stop the pump at the bottom of its stroke
when you take a break or at the end of the day. This
helps keep material from drying on the rod, damaging the packings.
2. Keep displacement pump packing nut/wet cup 1/3
full of Airlessco Throat Seal Oil at all times. The
TSO helps protect the packings and rod.
3. Lubricate Connecting Rod Pin every 3 months.
Daily Maintenance
Inspect the packing nut daily. If seepage of paint into the
packing nut and/or movement of the piston upward is
found (while not spraying), the packing nut should be
tightened just enough to stop leakage. Overtightening
will damage the packings and reduce the packing life.
Oil and Lubrication Instructions
Electric Motor Maintenance
Lubrication
The motor is supplied with pre-lubricated ball bearings,
lubricated for the life of the bearing.
Motor Brushes
Motor brushes need periodic inspection and replacement as wear indicates. Standard Leeson brushes have
an initial length of 1 and 1/4” and should be replaced
when they are worn to a length of 5/8”. Brush wear is
greatly influenced by individual application and it is recommended that brush wear be checked at early intervals of operation in order to determine future required
inspection.
To change the brushes:
1. Unplug the machine.
2. Remove the cover over the motor.
3. Open the two covers at the rear of the motor.
4. Loosen the screw under the brush.
5. Pull out the wire.
6. Push the brush retainer clip in and withdraw.
7. Remove the worn brushes.
8. Install new brushes in the reverse order.
To increase brush life, new brushes (Part #301146 for
110 volt) need to have a run in period. After changing
brushes, set the machine for spraying. With a bucket of
Pump Conditioner and water, a 50’ 1/4” airless hose, airless gun and tip on unit, open the prime valve and switch
on. The pump will now prime. With pump running in the
prime mode, turn the pressure control knob to high pressure. (The pump has to cycle fast with no pressure in
the pump). Run the pump for 20 minutes and the
brushes will be run in.

Replacement of Belt/Belt
Adjustment
NOTE: The Cog Belt System does not require align-
ment. When upper sheave is placed on motor shaft it is
pushed on until a positive stop is reached. The set
screws are then loctited. The lower pulley is placed on
gearbox and held in place with keyway and snap ring.
The flange on upper sheave holds the belt in alignment
and the belt self aligns on lower pulley eliminating having to align.
1. Remove cover from unit.
2. Remove tensioner Assembly. Loosen screws. Move
gearbox forward to allow removal and replacement
of belt.
3. Retighten screws into gearbox until they bottom out.
This will align gearbox correctly.
4. Replace tensioner with bolts and leave loose to
allow adjusting belt tension.
5. Tighten belt. When properly tightened the deflection
play should be 1/4 inch when pushing hard with
thumb. (20 ft/lbs)
NOTE: When placing belt on pulleys and inserting the
tensioner against belt, ensure cogs on belt are engaged
into cogs on pulleys before tightening belts. Rotating
upper pulley while holding the tensioner against the belt
will allow proper engagement of cogs prior to tightening.
Servicing the Fluid Pump
NOTE: Before disassembling the sprayer refer to Trou-
bleshooting to try and resolve the problem.
Fluid Pump Disconnect
1. Flush out the material you are spraying, if possible.
2. Relieve Pressure, page 7. Stop the pump in the
middle of down stroke.
3. Remove the suction tube and fluid hose (if so
equipped) from the fluid pump.
4. Remove the connecting rod shield from the pump.
5. Remove two retaining rings, slip the sleeve of the
coupling down, and remove both coupling halves.
This will disconnect fluid pump from the connecting
rod.
6. Using a 7/8” box wrench, disconnect the high pressure fluid line from the pump.
7. Using a 9/16” wrench, unscrew the two tie rod locknuts.
8. Pull the pump off the tie rods.

Fluid Pump Reinstall
1. Loosen the packing nut and extend piston rod to
fully up position. Slip sleeve over the piston rod.
2. Insert one of the retaining rings through the packing
nut and rest the sleeve on top of it.
4. Remove the retaining ring from the packing nut and
insert into coupling halves.
5. Secure the fluid pump housing to the tie rods and
screw locknuts with washers on loosely.
6. Tighten the tie rod locknuts evenly to 30 ft. lb.
NOTE: After all the rod locknuts are tight, the alignment
of both rods should allow easy assembly and disassembly of the coupling. If any binding, loosen and retighten
all the rod locknuts to improve the alignment. Misalignment causes premature wear of seal and packings.
3. Connect the connecting rod with the fluid pump by
installing the coupling halves. Slide sleeve over the
coupling halves and secure with retaining rings.
7. Tighten packing nut clockwise until resistance
against the packings can be felt. Turn it one full turn
more.
8. Start the pump and operate it slowly (at low engine
speed) to check the piston rod for binding. Adjust tie
rod lock nuts if necessary to eliminate binding.
9. Prime the unit and run at maximum pressure for
several minutes, then release the pressure and
repeat step 7.
10. Fill the wet cup (packing nut) with five drops of TSO
(Throat Seal Oil).

ProblemCauseSolution
MotorRemove the motor brush covers and turn the
machine ON. Set the potentiometer (POT) at
maximum pressure and check for DC voltage
across both brush terminals. It should read
greater than 80 volts DC.
If you have DC voltage, turn the machine off
and unplug it from the wall. Check to make sure
the brushes are making good contact with the
armature. Replace the brushes if they are less
than 5/8” long. If the brushes are good, replace
the motor.
If you do not have DC voltage, see Sensor.
SensorPlug another sensor board into the board and
perform the zero calibration procedure. If the
machine starts to run, the sensor is bad. If
there is no replacement sensor available, use a
multi-meter to test the resistance across the
red and black wires of the sensor (be sure to
test the plug). You should read 1.5 - 3.5k ohms.
A faulty sensor usually reads no continuity
(open).
Troubleshooting
If the sensor passes all the tests, see Pressure
Control Knob (Potentiometer).
Pressure Control Knob (Potentiometer)
Plug another potentiometer (POT) into the control board. If the machine starts, the old POT is
bad.
When a replacement POT is not available,
remove the POT lead (with the machine turned
off) from the control board and test the resistance between the red and black wires (be sure
to test at the plug). The resistance should read
between 8-12k ohms. If it is outside of this
range replace the POT.
If there is DC voltage at the motor brushes and
the sensor and pressure control knob are functioning, replace the pressure control assembly.
