How to use the gun safety latch
When engaged, the gun safety latch prevents the gun
from accidental triggering. See Fig. 4.
WARNING
If the gun still sprays when the gun safety latch is
engaged, adjust the gun. See manual 307614,
supplied.
How to use the pressure drain valve
Use the pressure drain valve to relieve fluid pressure
from the pump and to help prime the pump. If the valve
senses an over-pressure condition, it opens automatically to relieve fluid pressure. If this happens, stop
spraying immediately, shut off and unplug the sprayer.
Determine the cause of the problem and correct it
before operating the sprayer again. Refer also to the
Troubleshooting Guide, page 14. See Fig. 5.

Pressure Relief Procedure
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually
relieved to prevent the system from
starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid
under high pressure can be injected through the
skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of
an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving
parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
whenever you:

stop spraying,
check or service any of the system equipment,
install or clean the spray tip.
1. Engage gun safety latch.
2. Turn ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Unplug power cord.
The tip guard alerts you to the risk of injection and
helps prevent placing any part of the body close to the
spray tip. The tip guard also adjusts the vertical or
horizontal spray pattern. See page 10. The tip guard
holds a reversing spray tip. The tip is in the spraying
position when the tip handle points forward. See Fig. 7.
Clean front of tip frequently during day’s operation.
First, follow preceding Pressure Relief Procedure.

7. To prime hose, lower pressure to reduce splashing. Holding gun against pail, trigger gun and
slowly increase pressure until pump starts. Keep
gun triggered until all air is forced out of system
and fluid flows freely from gun. Release trigger and
engage gun safety latch.
8. Check all fluid connections for leaks. Relieve
pressure before tightening any connections.
9. Install spray tip. Engage gun safety latch first!
See manual 308644 for how to install tip.
10. Adjust spray pattern
a. Increase pressure just until spray from gun is
completely atomized. To avoid excessive
overspray and fogging, and to extend tip and
sprayer life, always use lowest pressure
needed to get desired results.
b. If more coverage is needed, use a larger tip
rather than increasing pressure.
c. Test spray pattern. To adjust direction of spray
pattern, engage gun safety latch and loosen
retaining nut (B). Position tip guard horizontally
for a horizontal pattern or vertically for a vertical pattern. Hold tip guard in place while tightening retaining nut. See Fig. 9.
