Choosing the Correct Tip
Choosing the Correct Tip
Understanding Tip Number
The last three digits of tip number (i.e.: XXX517) con­tains information about hole size and fan width on sur­face when gun is held 12 in. (30.5 cm) from surface being sprayed.
First digit when doubled = approximate fan width
517 tip has 10 - 12 in. fan width
517 tip has a 0.017 in. hole size
Last two digits = tip hole size in thousands of an inch
Example: For a 10-12 in. (254-305 mm) fan width and a
0.017 in (0.43 mm) hole size, order part number
PST517, depending on your sprayer model number.
ti19498a
Selecting Tip Hole Size
• Tips come in a variety of hole sizes for spraying a range of fluids. The sprayer includes a 0.017 in. (0.43 mm) tip for use in most spraying applications. Use the table below to determine the range of rec­ommended tip hole sizes for each fluid type.
• Consider coating and surface to be sprayed. Make sure to use the best tip hole size for the coating and best fan width for that surface.
• Tip hole size controls flow rate - the amount of paint that comes out of the gun.
HINTS:
• As you spray, the tip wears and enlarges. Starting with a tip hole size smaller than the maximum will allow you to spray within the rated flow capacity of the sprayer.
• Tips wear with use and abrasive paint and need periodic replacement.
• Do not spray with worn spray tips. Poor spray pattern quality will result.

Shutdown and Cleaning
Shutdown and Cleaning
NOTICE
Failure to properly clean sprayer after each use will result in hardened materials, damage to the sprayer, and the warranty will no longer be valid.
Flushing Sprayer
Use only water-based materials. Do not use materials
which state “FLAMMABLE” on the packaging. For more information about your material, request MSDS from dis­tributor or retailer.
Spraying certain materials may cause static build-up in the sprayer that can result in static shock to the user. If this occurs, first ensure the material has a flash
point greater than 100° F (38° C) and does not state that it is FLAMMABLE anywhere on the package. If still feeling a static shock, the material likely contains a non-mineral spirits fluid such as, but not limited to, xylene, toluene, or naphtha, which can build up static. Switch to an alterna­tive material.
Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area.
3. Remove flexible suction tube as shown below.
ti19033a
NOTICE
When removing flexible suction tube from sprayer, make sure to pull directly on top fitting of flexible suction tube. Flexible suction tube will become damaged if pulled from bottom or on flexible portion.
4. Use screwdriver to pry suction tube strainer from flexi­ble suction tube.
ti18952a
5. Clean flexible suction tube and suction tube strainer with water (or flushing fluid) and a brush every time you flush the sprayer. Reconnect flexible suction tube and suction tube strainer and orient as shown.
NOTICE
Protect the internal parts of this sprayer from water.
Do not submerge the sprayer in cleaning fluid. Openings in shroud allow cooling of mechanical parts and electron­ics inside. If water or cleaning fluid gets into these open­ings, the sprayer could malfunction or become permanently damaged.
1. Engage trigger lock and pull prime/spray valve UP to release pressure.

ti19712a
NOTE: If pin does not assemble, repeat steps 3 - 6 to ensure pressure control is fully engaged with retainer.
IMPORTANT!
After assembly is complete, perform the following steps to verify proper operation. If sprayer fails one of the steps, repeat Pressure Control Knob procedure.
• Verify proper trigger lock operation. Slide trigger lock into “locked” and “unlocked” position and pull trigger. Trigger should not move in locked position and sprayer should run in unlocked position.
• Visually inspect for gaps between enclosure halves. A gap larger than 1/32 in. could be caused by a pinched wire. If disassembly and inspection indicates that no wire has been pinched, carefully reassemble and repeat verification steps.
• Cordless Sprayers: Verify that battery freely slides onto sprayer terminals and is locked when fully engaged.
• Verify belt hook operation (if applicable) by sliding hook completely out and back inside.
• Fill material cup with water and verify unit primes and sprays. Follow setup instructions in sprayer operation manual for proper priming and spraying procedure.
• Rotate pressure control knob to make sure it can rotate fully in both directions.
