SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
1) Injection hazard: Airless Painting Equipment can
cause serious injury if the spray penetrates the
skin. Do not point the gun at anyone or any part of
the body. The tip guard provides some protection
against accidental injection injuries, but is mostly a
warning device. Never put your hand, fingers or
body over the spray tip. Gloves and clothing do not
necessarily offer any protection either. Keep the
gun trigger safety lever in locked postion when not
spraying. Always have the tip guard in place while
spraying.
In case of penetration seek medical aid immediately!
Note to physician: Injection into skin is a serious
traumatic injury. It is important to treat the injury
surgically as soon as possible. Do not delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is a concern with
some exotic coatings injected into the bloodstream.
Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive
hand surgeon may be advisable. Be prepared to tell
the doctor what fluid was injected.
2) This system is capable of producing 3200 PSI. To
avoid rupture and injury, do not operate this pump with
components rated less than 3200 PSI working pressure
(including but not limited to spray guns, hose and hose
connections).
3) Do not spray paints or other inflammable fluids
indoors which have a flash point below 21 degree C, 70
degree F. Keep spray area well ventilated. Before
spraying, turn off all pilot lights and open flames.
4) Wear a respirator which is approved for the product
being sprayed.
5) Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents in this
system; it contains aluminium parts and may explode.
Cleaning agents, coatings, paints, and adhesives may
contain halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. Don't take
chances, consult your material supplier to be sure. (ex:
methylene chloride and 1,1,1 - Trichlorethane)
6) Caution: When a flammable liquid is sprayed there may
be danger of fire or explosion especially in a closed
area.
7) Caution: Arcing parts. Keep the pump at least 20 feet
away from explosive vapors.
8) Caution: Static electricity can be developed by airless
spraying. Ground unit and object to be sprayed. On
electric units, unit power cord must be connected to a
grounded outlet. Use only three wire extension cords.
Static explosion can occur with ungrounded unit.
9) Flush system with spray tip removed. Always use
lowest pressure possible.
10) Always follow safety precautions and warnings printed
on paint container.
11) Only use spray guns and hoses supplied by Lemmer.
User assumes all risk and liability when using spray guns
or hoses not complying with minimum specification and
safety devices of Lemmer Spray Systems Ltd.
12) Inspect hoses before each use. Never use a damaged
hose. High pressure in hoses with wear, leaks or splits
may cause the hose to rupture and cause serious
personal injury. Never try to stop or deflect leaks with any
part of your body.
13) Use extreme caution when cleaning spray tip guard.
DO NOT try to wipe off build up around the spray tip
before following shut down procedure. Follow the Shut
down Procedure, then follow the spray tip manufacturer’s
instructions for removing and cleaning the spray tip.
14) Never attempt to change spray tip or leave the unit
unattended without first shutting off pump, releasing fluid
pressure, and locking the trigger safety lock.
15) Use extreme caution when changing spray tip. Follow
the Shut down Procedure, then follow the spray tip
manufacturer’s instructions for changing the spray tip.
HIGH PRESSURE!
INJECTION HAZARD!
Toujours avoir la garde en place pour peindre.
En cas d’accident, demander immédiatement des soins médicaux.
Note au médicin: La pénétration de peinture dans la peau peut causer
de graves blessures. Il est important de traîter la blessure à la
chirurgie aussitôt possible. Ne pas retarder le traitement pour
rechercher la toxicité. La toxicité peut avoir de graves conséquences
quand certains enduits exotiques son injectés directement dans le
systéme sanguin. Une consultation avec un chirurgien spécialisant en
reconstruction de mains serait conseillable. Soyez prêts à décrire au
médecin quel liquide a été injecté.
2) Ce matériel peut produire une pression de 3200 lbf/po2. Afin d’éviter
des ruptures et des blessures, ne pas utiliser cette pompe avec des
éléments dont la pression nominale de service est inférieure à 3200 lbf/po2
(y compris les pulvérisateurs, tuyaux flexibles et raccords).
3) Ne jamais pulvériser à l’interieur un produit inflammable qui a un point
éclair inférieur à 21 degrés C,70 degrés F. L’endroit où vous peinturez doit
toujours être bien aéré. Avant de pulvériser s’assurer qu’il n’y a aucune
flamme ou pilot (veilleuse) de fournaise en marche dans l’appartement.
4) Servez-vous d’un masque respiratoire qui est certifié pour le produit que
vous pulvérisez.
5) Ne pas utiliser de solvants contenant des hydrocarbures halogénés
avec ce matériel. Il contient des particules d'aluminium et peut exploser. Les
agents de nettoyage, enduits, peintures et, adhésifs, peuvent contenir des
solvants contenant des hydrocarbures halogénés. Soyez prudents;
consultez votre fournisseur pour les informations nécessaires. (ex:
méthylène chloride and 1,1,1 - Trichloréthane)
6) Attention: La pulvérisaton d'un liquide inflammable peut entraîner un
risque d'incendie ou d'explosion, surtout dans les espaces fermés.
7) Attention: Étincelles électriques. Ne pas placer la pompe à moins de 6
mètres des vapeurs explosives.
8) Attention: La pression du produit que l’on pulvérise peut produire une
charge électrostatique. Mettre le matériel et l'objet à pulvériser à la terre.
Sur les modèles électriques, le cordon électrique doit être attaché à une
prise de courrant reliée à terre. Le cordon de rallonge doit être à 3 fils. Des
décharges d'électricité statique peuvent se produire si le matériel n'est pas
mis à la terre.
9) Retirer l'embout de pulvérisation avant de rincer le matériel tout en
utilisant une pression aussi basse que possible.
10) Toujours prendre les précautions nécessaires et observer toutes les
consignes de sécurité figurant sur le pot de peinture.
11) N'utiliser que les pulvérisateurs et les tuyaux flexibles fournis par
Lemmer. Les personnes qui utilisent des pulvérisateurs et des tuyaux
flexibles non conformes aux standards d'utilisation et de sécurité minimum
du fabricant de la pompe le font à leurs propres risques et seront les seuls
responsables.
12) Examiner soigneusement le tuyau avant de s'en servir. Il ne faut jamais
utiliser un tuyau endommagé ou avec des fentes. Un tuyau à haute pression
qui n'est pas en bon état représente un serieux danger de blessure à la
personne en cas de crevaison soudaine. Il ne faut jamais essayer d'arrêter
des fuites de liquide avec n'importe quelle partie de votre corps.
13) Il est nécessaire d'exercer beaucoup de précaution pendant le
nettoyage de la protection de la buse. Ne jamais essayer d'enlever la
peinture qui aurait pu s'accumuler sur la buse avant d'avoir suivi les
consignes de sécurité concernant le nettoyage et le remplacement de la
buse.
14) Ne jamais essayer de changer la buse ou laisser l'appareil sans surveillance
avant d'arrêter le moteur, couper la pression et verrouiller la gâchette du
pistolet.
15) Le remplacement d'une buse doit être fait avec beaucoup de
précaution. Référez-vous au PROCÉDÉ D'ENTRETIEN.
1) Risque d’injection de peinture: Le matériel de
pulvérisation sans air peut entraîner de graves blessures
s’il y a pénétration de la peau par la peinture. Ne jamais
pointer le pistolet vers une personne ou vers soi-même.
La garde de la buse limite le risque de blessures
accidentelles par injection mais constitue principalement
un élément de mise-en-garde. Ne jamais mettre la main,
les doigts ou toutes parties du corps contre la buse. Le
port de gants et de vêtements n'est pas nécessairement
une forme de protection non plus.Laisser le cran de sureté
du pistolet en position fermée quand il nést pas utilisé.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
16) Do not pull on hoses to move equipment, DO NOT kink or bend
the hose sharply.
17) Keep children or anyone not familiar with airless spray
systems away from equipment and work area.
18) Conductive metal containers must be used when
flushing flammable fluids through the system. Always
flush at low pressure with spray tip removed. A metal part
of the spray gun must be held firmly against the grounded
metal pail when flushing or relieving pressure from the
gun.
19) Trigger guard helps reduce the risk of accidentally
triggering the gun if dropped or bumped. Do not use a spray gun
without a trigger guard.
16) Il ne faut jamais essayer de déplacer l'appareil en tirant sur le
tuyau. Il faut aussi éviter tout tortillement du tuyau.
17) Les enfants et le personnes n'ayant aucune
expérience avec ce genre de pulvérisateur doivent êtres
gardés à l'écart de l'appareil et du chantier de travail.
18) Quand on décharge des liquides inflammables il
faut utiliser des pots conducteurs en métal. Quand on
relâche la pression avec le pistolet, une partie métallique
du pistolet doit être en contact avec le pot en métal muni
de mise à la terre.
19) La protection de la gâchette réduit le risque
d'activement involontaire si on laisse tomber le pistolet ou s'il est
frappé par accident. Ne jamais utiliser le pistolet sans la
protection de gâchette.
20) Shut Down Procedure

Electrical requirements
If an extension cord is used, make sure it is a 3 conductor type (has
grounding wire) and is CSA approved.Also make sure that its wire size
(AWG) is thick enough to carry the amperage your machine requires.
The chart below will show the minimum recommended AWG for specific
lengths. See next page for pump specifications.
Remember; keep the motor clean and dry. Paint acts as an insulator
and will cause overheating and/or motor damage.
Do not remove or bend grounding pin under any circumstances, it is
essential for safe operation.
Données électriques.
Si l'on utilise un cordon de rallonge, veillez à ce qu'il soit à 3 fils (avec
mise à la terre) et avec certification CSA. Le calibre des fils doit être
suffisant pour l'ampérage qui est nécessaire pour que l'appareil
fonctionne. Voir le tableau ci-dessous indiquant les calibres minimuns
requis selon les différentes longueurs de la rallonge.
Il est important de garder le moteur propre et à l'abri de l'humidité.
L'isolation créée par la peinture sèche pourrait le surchauffer et
l'endommager.
Ne jamais enlever la broche de la mise à la terre car elle est essentielle
pour la slûreté du travail.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
INTRODUCTION:
We appreciate your decision to purchase a Lemmer professional quality
professional paint spraying system and believe you will find it to be the
best sprayer you ever owned.
Your Lemmer airless paint machine is capable of spraying a wide variety
of latex, oil-based and alkyd paints, as well as stains, preservatives and
other architectural coatings. The material you are spraying will have a
direct effect on the amount of pressure required for the optimum pattern
and coverage to be obtained. We recommend that before actually
beginning your job, you carefully read this manual and practice with the
sprayer until you feel comfortable using it.
These Lemmer sprayers are powerful and versatile enough to be used
with a variety of accessories (extra lenghts of hose, extensions,
pressure feed rollers, etc. as shown later in this manual) to make them
even more versatile systems. Ask your supplier about the recommended
accessories for your particular job.
PUMP TYPE:
The Lemmer DC units use a double acting piston pump, with stationary
packings. This gives good service life and is a simple to maintain
system. The valves are stainless steel balls with tungsten carbide seats,
giving very good reliability.
Industrial grade DC motors are used in conjunction with reliable
pressure control sytems.
ADVANTAGES OF THESE SYSTEMS ARE:
• Pump stops working when you do. Minimizes wear.
• Accurate spray pattern with minimal overspray.
• Minimal or no thinning of paint products.
• Pumps straight out of original paint container.
• Variable pressure from 0 to 3000 PSI.
• Various nozzles are available for slow to fast spraying.
• Light weight, compact and portable.
• Quiet running and low power consumption.
• Steady spraying pressure - minimal fan fluctuations.
• Compact paint pump - quick cleaning, less parts to wear.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
Due to the nature of operation of this unit, even though the motor cuts off, or appears to have cut off, it may re-start at any time. Even
once the switch has been turned off, there will likely be pressure remaining in the system. Do not service the unit unless it has been
turned off, unplugged and the pressure has been relieved. Pressure is relieved by turning the prime knob counter clockwise and double
checking by triggering the gun.
DO NOT USE STEEL BRAID paint spray hose! The DC-1600/2000/3100/7700 can only be used with fibre braid hose.

PUMP COMPONENTS
SPRAY GUN:
The spray gun is designed specifically for
airless spraying. Since there is no
compressed air to atomize the paint,
atomization is accomplished by forcing the
paint at a very high pressure (3200 psi)
through a very small hole (.017" diameter
for example). Because of this high
pressure, the spray tip and gun valve are
made of tungsten carbide for maximum
wear resistance. The gun body is made of
forged alloy and anodized for chemical
resistance.
As a safety feature, the spray gun can be
locked with the trigger safety lever when
you are not spraying. Be sure to read all
warnings concerning the high pressures of
airless spraying on page 3 & 4.
PISTON PUMP (DC-1600/2000/3100/
7700):
Uses two sets of packings and two check
valves in conjunction with an abrasion
resistant piston. This forms a double
acting pump; ie pumps on both up and
down stroke. Both sets of packings are
stationary, eliminating costly cylinder
wear.
SPEED REDUCER(DC-1600/2000/3100/
7700):
Consists of a two stage gear reduction in
permanent grease for long life. All
bearings are also permanently greased. It
converts the high speed output of motor
into very high torque to drive the pump.
MOTOR (DC-1600/2000/3100):
Is an industrial grade high speed unit. Its
permanent magnet DC type construction
withstands construction site power
fluctuations. The higher rpm of this motor
results in a compact and lightweight
design.
MOTOR (DC-7700):
This unit has the most technologically advanced motor available today.
In addition to being very compact and lightweight, it also has no brushes
or commutator, and it has high torque combined with low amp draw.
PRESSURE CONTROL BOX (DC-1600/2000/3100):
A rugged membrane transducer transmits a paint pressure signal to an
electronic relay which then powers the motor. This on-off design has a
pressure fluctuation of about 200 psi.
PRESSURE CONTROL BOX (DC-7700):
A tough solid state pressure transducer combined with a state of the art
variable speed electronic control provides consistant spray pressure.
Features include run dry protection and allowing faster priming once
fluid fills the pump. The safety fuse is easy to access from the outside of
the motor shell. This motor does not require any service.

TIP SELECTION
TIP SELECTION:
A standard size .017 tip will give good performance in latex or oil base
materials of moderate viscosities.
The following chart gives a basic idea of what tips the Lemmer sprayers
can handle performance wise and what tip is appropriate for which
material. Gun filter sizing is also included in the chart for handy reference.
For a much more detailed look at tip sizes, please consult the detailed
tip chart on page 10.
Tip size Paint type Filter size
.011 Lacquers, industrial enamel, red
very thin paints.
.013 Oil stains, pigmented lacquers, yellow
red oxide primer.
.015 Normal application of latex, oil base, yellow
stains and , solid color oil stains.
.017 Fast application of latex paints white
and stains, oil base paints.
.019 Heavier body latex paints. white
.021 Fast application of heavier latex white
paint, smooth block filter when
properly thinned.
.021 Maximum tip on DC-3100 not req’d
.025 Maximum tip on DC-4600 not req’d
.031 Maximum tip on DC-7700 not req’d
.045 Maximum tip on HP-9500 not req’d
The maximum tip for a pump is the largest tip that will deliver a proper
pressure for spraying without overworking or overloading. When a tip is
used for some period of time, it can wear beyond the maximum for the
pump, which will cause low pressure and poor spray pattern.
Stains and thick latex products often cause the most rapid wear of the
tip, while clear lacquers and varnishes cause the least wear. Thus tip life
can vary from as little as 50 gallons to as much as 200 or more,
depending on the product being sprayed and the pressure used.
Filters for the gun are picked not because of the type of paint being
used, but to protect a given size of tip. You pick the tip for the type of
paint and job being done and then choose the filter to protect that tip.
The chart on page 10 gives much more detail about tip and filter
choices.
THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT
TIPS.....
1) Low pressure means longer life, for tips and the pump. Less
overspray too!
2) Worn tips waste paint and overwork the pump, wearing it out
quickly.

Measure the paint’s viscosity as follows: (note, paints that
are intended to be rolled should be thinned for air or airless
spraying. A general rule of thumb is 5 to 15% for latex and
oils, 30% or more for fine finishes. (consult your paint
supplier for best results).
a) Submerge the Lemmer Viscosity cup in the paint.
b) Lift the cup out of the paint and begin timing.
c) Stop timing when the steady paint stream is first broken.
d) The time recorded is the paint’s viscosity.

Notes:
Results are based on water,

Tip chart example: Latex stain is being
sprayed onto a fence.
The paint is fairly thick
(like a very heavy motor oil) and the DC3100 is the spray machine. The maximum
tip is a .019 for a DC-
3100. Draw a line along
the .019 tips as shown
below. Everything
above the line is
sprayable with the DC-
3100. Now just choose
the fan width. For
fences a 6” width will
give a lot of control, so
the intersecting best
choice would be a 315 tip with a yellow gun
filter.
—Gallons per minute—
very heavy coatings.
The two most important things to remember about tips.....
1) Low pressure means longer life, for tips and the pump. Less overspray too!
2) Worn tips waste paint and overwork the pump, causing premature pump wear. The maximum tip for a pump
is the largest tip that will deliver a proper pressure for spraying without overworking or overloading. When a
tip is used for some period of time, it can wear beyond the maximum size recommended for the pump, which
will cause low pressure and poor spray pattern.
• Stains and thick latex products often cause the most rapid wear of the tip, while clear lacquers and varnishes cause the least wear. Thus tip life can vary from as little as 50 gallons to as much as 200 or more,
depending on the product being sprayed and the pressure used.
• Filter screen mesh for the gun or pump are picked not because of the type of paint being used, but to protect
a given size of tip. Pick the tip for the type of paint and job being done and then choose the filter to protect
that tip.
