Pressure Relief Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure whenever you see this
symbol.
This equipment stays pressurized until
pressure is manually relieved. To help
prevent serious injury from pressurized
fluid or splashed fluid follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever sprayer is
stopped and before sprayer is cleaned or
checked, and before equipment is
serviced.
1.Turn ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position. Wait 7 seconds for power to
dissipate.
3.Open air control valve.
4.On the RTX2000pi, open gun prime
valve.
Grounding
The equipment must be grounded to
reduce the risk of static sparking and
electric shock. An electric or static spark
can cause fumes to ignite or explode. An
improper ground can cause electric shock.
A good ground provides an escape wire for
the electric current.
ti27340a
2.On the RTX1400si, trigger gun into
material hopper.
This sprayer includes a ground wire with an
appropriate ground contact. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided; if it does not
fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
Power Requirements
100-120V units require 100-120 VAC, 50/60
Hz, 12 or
15A, 1 phase.
Extension Cords
Use an extension cord with an undamaged
ground contact. If an extension cord is
necessary, use a 3-wire, 12 AWG (2.5 mm2)
minimum.
3A3258D9
Page 10
Preparation
NOTE: Lighter gauge or longer extension
cords may reduce sprayer performance.
Auxiliary Air Compressor
Do not use an auxiliary air compressor with
this spray system.
Generator Requirements
3500 W (3.5 kW) minimum.
Hose Size and Length
The system comes with a 25 ft (7.6m) hose
set consisting of a 3/4 in. ID RTX1400si/1 in.
ID RTX2000pi material hose and a 3/8 in-ID
air hose.
Do not use more than 25 ft (7.6 m) of material
hose.
Soft Start/Smart Start™
System (RTX2000pi only)
“Smart” vs. “Soft”
“Smart” refers to the function where the
•
motor starts and stops when the trigger
is pulled and released. This keeps the
sprayer at full operating pressure and
allows the sprayer to spray immediately
when the gun is triggered.
•“Soft” refers to the function where the
sprayer slowly starts the pump. This
prevents a large “splotch” of material
from being discharged from the gun
when trigger is pulled after the sprayer
has sat idle for a period of time.
Smart Start
The Smart Start System is controlled by
compressed air in the tanks and lines. When
gun is triggered, air flows through the lines
and opens a flow switch. There is also
another pressure switch that senses when
the compressed air system is at operating
pressure. This second pressure switch
allows the sprayer to start immediately when
the sprayer is turned ON charging the
compressed air system to full pressure. This
method keeps the compressed air system at
operating pressure if there is a small air leak
in the system.
Soft Start
The Soft Start System is controlled by motor
power and an air cylinder. When pressurized,
the air cylinder pushes the rollers into the
peristaltic pump pushing material through the
pump. When the motor shuts off, a solenoid
valve relieves the pressure in the air cylinder
causing the rollers to disengage from the
peristaltic pump. When the motor starts again
there is a time delay while the air cylinders
charge and move the rollers into the pump
this is the “Soft Start”.

NOTICE
•
Do not store sprayer under pressure.
•Do not allow material to dry inside
pump, hoses, gun or spray system.
•When operating a RTX1400SI and you
are going to stop spraying for more than
five minutes turn sprayer OFF to
prevent shortened pump life.
1.Connect air hose and material hose to
sprayer air and material hose outlets.
4.Connect material hose to gun.
5.Make sure burp guard is installed.
Before adding material to the hopper,
install the burp guard. When only a small
amount of material remains in the hopper,
the burp guard prevents material from
shooting out when the unit is turned off.
This material could splash in the operator’s
eyes or on skin, or into the air.

NOTE: Correct material mixture is essential.
The pump will not operate if the mixture is too
thick.
•Mix the material in a separate container
before pouring it into hopper.
•Use Material Thickness Gauge to
determine if mixture is thin enough to
spray.
•The Material Thickness Gauge will only
determine if the material is thin enough
to pass through the pump. For some
applications or for higher speed
spraying, your mixture may need to be
thinner.
•For best results, do not use partial bags
of material.
1.Mix the material and water in a
separate container.

Adjusting the System
Sufficient fluid output (volume and pressure)
and good atomization are a balance of
atomizing air, material thickness/material
flow and nozzle selection. Achieving the
correct balance for your application requires
experimentation to achieve desired results.
Keep in mind these important points when
adjusting gun:
•Select proper nozzle for your
application. See Nozzle Selection
Chart. Remember, the larger the
nozzle, the heavier the pattern.
3A3258D15
•Start sprayer with gun air flow valve
completely open. Trigger sprayer gun.
If needed, slowly close gun air flow until
you get a good spray pattern. Use minimum amount of air at spray gun to
achieve proper spray pattern and to
minimize bounce back.
+ Test spray pattern on cardboard.
Hold gun 18 to 24 in. (45.7 to 61 cm)
from surface. Use this spraying distance for most applications.
•Air and material flow adjustments are
made at the gun on all units.
+ Opening air valve increases air flow
through gun, which decreases texture
material flow through pump.
Page 16
Operation
+ Closing air valve decreases air flow
through gun, which increases texture
material flow through pump.
To achieve uniform spray pattern, adjust air
valve and flow adjustment nut on gun. If you
do not achieve the desired pattern, change
nozzles, see Recommended Nozzle
Selection Charts, page 15.
To Get Less Material
Try one or a combination of these methods:
•Open air valve.
•Turn gun flow adjustment nut
counter-clockwise to decrease flow.
•Use smaller nozzle.
To Get More Material
Try any one or a combination of these
methods:
•Close air valve.
•Turn gun flow adjustment nut clockwise
to increase flow.
•Use thinner material mixture.
•Use a larger nozzle.
For Continuous Spraying
Use trigger lock to hold trigger open and
reduce fatigue.
Check Material Consistency
Periodically
Check and thin material as needed to
maintain proper consistency. The material
may thicken as it sits and slow down
production. Agitate periodically.
Preventing Material Surge at Gun
Trigger (RTX1400si only)
Pressure will build up in the system when you
stop triggering the gun. To prevent material
surge at initial gun triggering:
•Point gun away from surface you are
spraying when you first pull trigger.
•When you first start to spray, hold the
gun away from the surface and gradually
work your way closer to it.
•Keep gun moving.
•After you begin spraying, trigger the gun
as little as possible.
Soft Start/Smart Start Operation
RTX2000pi
Smart Start
Sprayer will start under the following
conditions:
•A new sprayer is plugged in and ON/OFF
switch is turned ON.
•Gun is triggered and air valve is open far
enough.
•There is a small leak in the system and
the pressure drops below the pressure
switch setting. This may appear to be
random operation.
•When a bleeder gun is used.
•When there is no gun or hose connected
to the sprayer.
•When the pressure is relieved by
triggering the gun while the sprayer is
OFF and then turned back ON.
•Prime valve is opened.
•There is a hose failure (leak) in the twin
line hose.
Soft Start
•
The easiest way to tell if the Soft Start
System is functional is to spray material.
•The system is operating properly when a
small amount of material initially comes
out of the gun when triggered and the
volume of material slowly increases to
full spray.
NOTE: Motor runs when gun is triggered.
Sprayer is designed to stop pumping when
gun trigger is released.

Maintenance
Maintenance
Routine maintenance is important to ensure proper operation of your sprayer. Maintenance
includes performing routine actions which keep your sprayer in operation and prevent trouble
in the future.
ActivityInterval
Inspect motor shield vents for blockage.
Check sprayer stall (RTX2000pi only).
With sprayer gun NOT triggered, sprayer motor should stall
and not restart until gun is triggered again.
If sprayer starts again with gun NOT triggered, inspect pump
for internal/external leaks and check prime valve for leaks.
Protect the internal drive parts of this sprayer from water. Openings in shields allow cooling of
mechanical parts and electronics inside. If water gets into these openings, the sprayer could malfunction or be permanently damaged.
