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.
• 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 lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
• Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area.
• If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment until you identify and
correct the problem.
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system component. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.
• Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Tech nical Da ta in all equipment manuals.
Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
• Do not alter or modify equipment.
• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.
• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
• Do not use hoses to pull equipment.
• Keep children and animals away from work area.
• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.
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.
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, inhalation of toxic fumes, burns, and hearing loss. This equipment includes but is not limited to:
• Protective eyewear
• Clothing and respirator as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer
• Gloves
• Hearing protection
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Fluid from the gun/dispense valve, leaks, or ruptured components can splash in the eyes or on skin and cause serious
injury.

T1-TITANIUM NON-HVLP SPRAY GUN
Setup
• Check that your shop air provides adequate air flow.
• Use a minimum 5/16 in. ID air supply hose.
• Set air and fluid pressure regulator according to paint man-
ufacturer’s recommendation for conventional equipment. Do
not exceed 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar).
• Make sure no air restrictions, such as low-volume cheater-
valves, obstruct the air flow. If an air adjusting valve is
desired, use a SHARPE Air Adjusting Valve 24AAV (part
no. 2210), 36AAV-HOV (part no. 3310) or HOV (part no.
U04410).
• Install a shutoff valve (not supplied) downstream of the air
regulator to shut off gun air.
• Install a shutoff valve (not supplied) on the fluid supply line
to shut off fluid to the gun.
• Install an inline air filter (not supplied) to clean and dry the
air supply to the gun.
1. Connect a clean, dry, filtered air supply to gun air inlet (9).
2. Connect fluid supply line to the gun fluid inlet (38).
If this is first time using the equipment, flush the spray gun.

Flushing
WARNING
Read warnings, page 2.
Flush before using the equipment, before changing colors, and
when you are done spraying. Use solvent that is compatible with
gun wetted parts and fluid that will be sprayed. Flush at lowest
possible pressure.
Refer to Compliant Cleaning Methods, page 4, to comply with air quality laws if applicable.
1. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure.
2. Connect a solvent supply line to the gun fluid inlet (38).
3. Spray into grounded metal waste container until equipment
is clean.
4. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure.
Spraying
CAUTION
Excessive atomizing air pressure can increase over-spray,
reduce transfer efficiency, result in a poor quality finish
from dry spray.

Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
WAR NING
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying
and before cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment. Read
warnings, page 2.
1. Turn off gun air and fluid supply.
2. Trigger the gun to relieve pressure.
1. Connect the fluid supply line to the gun fluid inlet (38).
2. Turn on shop air to gun and set atomizing pressure with the
gun fully triggered.
3. Adjust the pattern size and shape with the spray width
adjustment knob (17d). Turn knob clockwise to reduce pattern size and counterclockwise to increase it.
See Troubleshooting guide if you experience an irregular
pattern.
4. Fluid control knob (16) is factory set for maximum needle
trigger travel and material flow. To decrease needle/trigger
travel and decrease fluid flow, turn the knob clockwise.
5. Adjust fluid pressure regulator until desired fluid flow rate is
reached.

Cleaning and Maintenance
WAR NING
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying
and before cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment. Read
warnings, page 2.
CAUTION
• Do not submerge gun in solvent. Solvent dissolves lubri-
cant, dries out packings, and may clog air passages.
• Do not use metal tools to clean air cap holes as this may
scratch them and distort the spray pattern.
• Use a compatible solvent.
• Gun can be cleaned in a gun washer.
Clean fluid and air line filters as directed by the manufacturer.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)
Regulation
In certain states, spraying solvents that release VOC’s into the
atmosphere when cleaning a spray gun is prohibited. To comply
with these air quality laws you must use a cleaning method that
prevents the escape of VOC vapors into the atmosphere. See
Compliant Cleaning Methods below.
Compliant Cleaning Methods
Cleaning Nozzle and Air Cap
CAUTION
• Trigger gun and use nozzle removal tool 41160 when-
ever you tighten or remove nozzle to avoid damaging
needle seat and nozzle.
• Do not use metal tools to clean air cap holes as this may
scratch them and distort the spray pattern.
To clean the air cap and nozzle, remove and soak
them in a compatible cleaning solution. Clean them
and front of gun with a soft-bristle brush dipped
into compatible solvent. Do not use a wire brush or
metal tools. To clean out air cap holes, use a soft
implement, such as a toothpick.
Spray Gun Maintenance
• Frequently lubricate the gun moving parts with a drop of
non-silicone oil (part no. 8255). See F
• Do not disassemble the spray gun if you are having a spray
pattern problem. Check Troubleshooting, page 5, for infor-
mation on how to correct the problem.
• Check for fluid leakage. Tighten fittings or replace equip-
ment as needed.

Lube
• Place spray gun in a gun washer that completely encloses
the gun and components during cleaning, rinsing, and
draining.
• Spray solvent through the spray gun into a closed gun
cleaning station.
Cleaning Gun
Refer to Compliant Cleaning Methods to comply with air
quality laws if applicable.
1. Follow Flushing procedure, page 3.
2. Use a rag moistened in solvent to wipe outside of gun.
3. Blow dry gun inside and out. Lubricate gun - see Spray Gun
Maintenance.

Troubleshooting
WARNING
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 3, before troubleshooting or servicing. Read warnings, page 2.
Problem Cause Solution
Normal pattern No action necessary
Right
Dirty or damaged air cap or fluid nozzle. Rotate air cap 180°.
If pattern follows air cap, problem is in air cap. Clean and
inspect. See page 4. If pattern is not corrected, replace air
cap.
Wrong
Heavy top or
bottom pattern
If pattern does not follow the air cap, the problem is with the
fluid nozzle. Clean and inspect the nozzle. See page 4. If the
pattern is not corrected, replace nozzle.
Pressure too high for viscosity of material
being sprayed.
Wrong
Split pattern
Dirty or distorted air horn holes. Rotate air cap 180°.
Wrong
Will not spray. Fluid adjustment knob (16) turned too far
clockwise.
a. Fluid pressure too high for viscosity of
material being sprayed.
b. Air pressure too low. b. Increase air pressure.
c. Gun held too close to surface. c. Hold gun about 6-8 inches (150-200 mm) from surface.
Wrong
Heavy pattern or
orange peel
Technical Data
a. Reduce air pressure and increase fluid pressure.
b. Increase material viscosity
c. Correct pattern by narrowing fan size with spray width
adjustment knob.
If pattern follows air cap, problem is in air cap. Clean and
inspect. See page 4. If pattern is not corrected, replace air
cap.
Adjust knob (16) to the counterclockwise.
a. Reduce fluid pressure.
