Warnings and Cautions
Warning Symbol
WARNING
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of serious
injury or death if you do not follow the instructions.
WARNING
Fire and explosion can occur when spraying or flushing flammable
fluid in an area where air circulation is poor and flammable vapors
can be ignited by an open flame or sparks.
To help prevent a fire and explosion:
DUse outdoors or in an extremely well ventilated area.
DDo not use 1,1,1–trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other
halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or fluids containing such
solvents in pressurized aluminum equipment. Such use could
result in a chemical reaction, with the possibility of explosion.
DRemove, extinguish or unplug all ignition sources;
tape wall switch. Do not smoke in spray area.
DNever fill fuel tank while the engine is running or hot.
DGround Sprayer, object being sprayed, paint and solvent pails.
DHold gun firmly to side of a grounded pail when triggering into pail.
DUse only conductive airless paint hose.
DNever run engine in inclosed area.
Caution Symbol
CAUTION
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of damage to
or destruction of equipment if you do not follow the
instructions.
Fluid injection is a serious injury! If high pressure fluid pierces
your skin, the injury might look like “just a cut”. But it is a serious
wound! Get immediate medical attention.
To help prevent injection, always:
DEngage trigger safety latch when not spraying.
DPoint gun away from yourself or anyone else.
DRelieve pressure before checking or repairing any leak.
DRelieve pressure when you turn off the sprayer or stop spraying.
DDo not use components rated less than system Maximum
Working Pressure
Never allow children to use this unit. If you are injured using this
equipment, get immediate medical treatment.

Maintenance
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:
D are instructed to relieve the pressure,
D stop spraying,
D check or service any of the system equipment,
D or install or clean the spray tip.
Pressure Relief Procedure
1. Lock gun trigger safety.
2. Turn engine ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Move pressure control switch to OFF and turn
pressure control knob fully counterclockwise.
CAUTION
For detailed engine maintenance and specifications,
refer to separate Honda Engines Owner’s Manual,
supplied.
DAILY: Check engine oil level and fill as necessary.
DAILY: Check hose for wear and damage.
DAILY: Check gun safety for proper operation.
DAILY: Check pressure drain valve for proper opera-
tion.
DAILY: Check and fill the gas tank.
AFTER THE FIRST 20 HOURS OF OPERATION:
Drain engine oil and refill with clean oil. Reference
Honda Engines Owner’s Manual for correct oil viscos-
ity.
WEEKLY: Remove air filter cover and clean element.
Replace element, if necessary. If operating in an
unusually dusty environment: check filter daily and
replace, if necessary.
4. Unlock trigger safety. Hold metal part of gun firmly
to side of grounded metal pail, and trigger gun to
relieve pressure.
5. Lock gun trigger safety.
6. Open pressure drain valve. Leave valve open until
ready to spray again.
If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely
clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved
after following the steps above, VERY SLOWLY
loosen tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to
relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely.
Now clear tip or hose.
Replacement elements can be purchased from your
local HONDA dealer.
WEEKLY: Check level of TSL in displacement pump
packing nut. Fill nut, if necessary. Keep TSL in nut to
help prevent fluid buildup on piston rod and premature
wear of packings.
AFTER EACH 100 HOURS OF OPERATION:
Change engine oil. Reference Honda Engines Owner’s
Manual for correct oil viscosity.
SPARK PLUG: Use only BPR6ES (NGK) or
W20EPR–U (NIPPONDENSO) plug. Gap plug to
0.028 to 0.031 in. (0.7 to 0.8 mm). Use spark plug
wrench when installing and removing plug.
