Important Information

This Spray Pack is only to be used with the following

Using with another HVLP unit may affect the Spray
Pack’s performance. This does not affect your
statutory rights.

This 4 litre Spray Pack is designed to fit your back. It
allows for large painting jobs to be completed without
the need to re-fill, saving you a substantial amount of
time. There are jobs where the use of the 1 litre

Spraying

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE UNIT IS TESTED WITH
WATER PRIOR TO EACH USE

1. Remove Spray Pack Lid (2) and pour in required
spray material and thinners.

2. Ensure the spray material and thinners do not
exceed the max fill line on the Spray Pack.

3. Fit the Spray Pack Lid, ensuring that Seal (3) is
present. Make sure the lid is tightened securely.

4. Connect the hose that is supplied with your Earlex
Spray Station into the back of the Spray Gun.

5. Put the Spray Pack on your back and tighten straps
(WARNING: Spray Pack weighs approximately 5kg
when full).

6. Ensure the Spray Pack is secure on your back and
the straps are tightened. The Spray Pack should sit
in your upper back area for optimum working
spray height.

7. Turn on the Spray Station unit, hold the Spray Gun
lower than Spray Pack until the liquid reaches the
Spray Gun, then you are ready to start spraying.
Overalls, goggles, mask and gloves should be worn
whilst using spray equipment.

Cleaning Instructions

The Spray Pack must be thoroughly cleaned
immediately after use. If the paint dries inside the
Spray Pack, cleaning will become much more
difficult and may render the Spray Pack inoperable.
This is not covered by the guarantee.

• Remove the Spray Pack Lid (2).

• Pour any leftover paint into a container so that it

can be used in the future. Wipe the Spray Pack to
remove as much as possible.

• Pour a quantity of thinners or water into the

container, shake the Spray Pack lightly, reassemble
the Spray Pack, then spray this liquid through the
Spray Gun. Repeat this process until the thinner
being sprayed is coming through with no traces of
paint.

• Clean any traces of paint off the outside of the

Spray Gun.

1) Using scissors or a sharp knife, split the Twin Tube (5)
at both ends.

2) Put the Hose Clips (6) at each end of the striped
tube (Fig.2).

3) Take the Spray Gun and remove the Paint
Container and Pick-Up Tube.

4) Connect the striped tube to the bottom of the
Spray Pack (Fig.2, 1a) and the other end to the
paint pick up (Fig.2, 1b) of the Spray Gun, and
connect the unstriped tube to the top of the Spray
Pack (Fig.2, 2a) and the other end to the air outlet
on the Spray Gun (Fig.2, 2b).
HINT: Running the end of the tubes under warm
water will ease the fitting onto the Spray Gun and
Spray Pack.
