Warning

Warning
The following are general warnings related to the setup, use, maintenance and repair of this equipment. Additional, more specific, warnings may be found throughout the text of this manual, where applicable.
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help pre­vent fire and explosion:
Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running or hot; shut off engine and let it cool. Fuel is flammable and can ignite or explode if spilled on hot surface.
Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).
Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes are present.
Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
Use only grounded hoses.
Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical treatment.
Do not spray without tip guard and trigger guard installed.
Engage trigger lock when not spraying.
Do not point gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
Do not put your hand over the spray tip.
Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch, cut or amputate fingers and other body parts.
Keep clear of moving parts.
Do not operate equipment with protective guards or covers removed.
Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equip­ment, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure and disconnect all power sources.
2 3A0243A
Warning
WARNING
PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD
Use of fluids that are incompatible with aluminum in pressurized equipment can cause serious chemi­cal reaction and equipment rupture. Failure to follow this warning can result in death, serious injury, or property damage.
Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or fluids containing such solvents.
Many other fluids may contain chemicals that can react with aluminum. Contact your material sup­plier for compatibility.
SUCTION HAZARD
Powerful suction could cause serious injury.
Never place hands near the pump fluid inlet when pump is operating or pressurized.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, which is colorless and odorless. Breathing carbon mon­oxide can cause death.
Do not operate in an enclosed area.
TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or swallowed.
Read MSDS’s to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose of it according to applicable guidelines.
BURN HAZARD
Equipment surfaces and fluid that’s heated can become very hot during operation. To avoid severe burns:
Do not touch hot fluid or equipment.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
You must wear appropriate protective equipment when operating, servicing, or when in the operating area of the equipment to help protect you from serious injury, including eye injury, hearing loss, inhala­tion of toxic fumes, and burns. This equipment includes but is not limited to:
Protective eyewear, and hearing protection.
Respirators, protective clothing, and gloves as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufac­turer.

Maintenance

Maintenance

Pressure Relief Procedure

1. Lock gun trigger safety.
2. Turn engine ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Move pump switch to OFF and turn pressure control knob fully counterclockwise.
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.
AFTER THE FIRST 20 HOURS OF OPERATION:
Drain engine oil and refill with clean oil. Reference Honda Engines Owner's Manual for correct oil viscosity.
WEEKLY: Remove engine air filter cover and clean ele­ment. Replace element, if necessary. If operating in an unusually dusty environment: check filter daily and replace, if necessary.
Replacement elements can be purchased from your local HONDA dealer.
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.
Premium Sprayers Engine Oil Funnel:
Use the supplied engine oil funnel when draining oil.
NOTE: 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 that all hose fittings are secure.
DAILY: Check gun safety for proper operation.
DAILY: Check pressure drain valve for proper operation.
DAILY: Check and fill the gas tank.
DAILY: Check level of TSL in displacement pump pack-
ing nut. Fill nut, if necessary. Keep TSL in nut to help prevent fluid buildup on piston rod and premature wear of packings and pump corrosion.
