of serious injury caused by static sparking, fluid
injection or over-pressurization and rupture of the
hose or gun.
To avoid damaging the pressure control, which may
result in poor equipment performance and component damage, follow these precautions.
1. Always use nylon spray hose at least 50 ft. (15.2
m) long.
2. Never use a wire braid hose; it is too rigid to act
as a pulsation dampener.
3. Never install any shutoff device between the filter
and the main hose. See Fig 2.
3000 psi (210 bar, 21 MPa) Maxi-
. This is to reduce the risk
CAUTION
2. Connect the hose and gun. Screw the 50 ft.
(15.2 m) main fluid hose (126) onto the outlet
nipple (55). Screw on the whip end hose (127).
Screw on the gun (128). Do not use thread sealant
on swivels, and do not install the spray tip yet! See
Fig. 2.
3. Two gun hookup. Remove the cap (56) from the
secondary hose outlet and attach an accessory
hose and gun to the 1/4 npsm(m) nipple.
See Fig. 2.
4. Fill the packing nut/wetcup (416). One full squirt

5. Check the engine oil level. Refer to the Honda
engine manual, supplied. This is a summary of the
information: Remove one of the oil fill plugs (C);
the oil should be almost overflowing. See Fig 3.
Add oil as necessary.
Recommended lubrication oil: Use a high-quality,
detergent oil, SAE 10W-40, classified “FOR SERVICE SE or SF”, for regular use and for breakingin a new engine.
6. Fill the gas tank. See the Fueling section, below.
7. Flush the pump to remove the lightweight oil
which was left in the pump to protect it from rust.
See page NO TAG.
8. Prepare the paint according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Remove any paint skin. Stir the
paint to mix pigments. Strain the paint through a
fine nylon mesh bag to remove particles that could
clog the filter or spray tip. This is probably the
most important step toward trouble-free spraying.
Fueling
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive
under certain conditions.
 Always shut off the engine switch (A) before
refueling. See Fig 3.
 Refuel in a well-ventilated area.
 Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the

INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
whenever you are instructed to relieve
pressure, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure on page 10.
NOTE: Refer to Fig. 8 for this procedure.
1. Remove the front cover and screws (7,78).
2. Unscrew the hose from the pump. Remove the
spring clips (40,52) and the drain hose (51) from
the pump.
3. Remove the four screws (72) and lockwashers
(73) from the bearing housing (11).
4. Lightly tap the back of the bearing housing (11)
with a plastic mallet. Pull the pump, bearing housing and connecting rod away from the drive housing as one assembly (C).
5. Remove the two drive housing screws (10) and
lockwashers (4). Remove the four pinion housing
screws (215) and lockwashers (214).
CAUTION
Do not drop the gear cluster (16) when removing the
drive housing (5). The gear cluster is easily damaged. The gear may stay engaged in the drive
housing or pinion housing.
Do not lose the thrust balls (5c or 219d) located at
each end of the gear cluster, or allow them to fall
between the gears. The balls, which are heavily
covered with grease, usually stay in the shaft recesses, but could be dislodged. If the balls are
caught between the gears and not removed, they will
damage the drive housing. If the balls are not in
place, the bearings will wear prematurely.
7. Apply the full 6 oz. (160 grams) of bearing grease,
which is supplied with a replacement gear, to the
gear cluster (16). Be sure the thrust balls (5c and
219d) are in place.
