Battery + Charger Safety Instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe, durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses conrm that incorrect use and poor care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.
mWARNING! Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the cordless paint sprayer and
cause it to malfunction, which can lead to personal injury.
mWARNING! Do not use a battery pack or appliance that
is damaged or modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or
risk of injury.
Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
Have your battery pack serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the battery pack is maintained.
mCAUTION! To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
24V iON+ lithium-ion battery pack only in its designated 24V iON+ lithium-ion charger. Other types of chargers present risk of re, personal injury and damage. Do not wire a battery
pack to a power supply plug or car cigarette lighter. Such misuse will permanently disable or damage the battery pack.
Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or ammable materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting or removing the battery pack, which could lead to a re.
Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open ames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the battery is
41°F – 105ºF (5°C – 40.5°C). Do not charge the battery outside in freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger, pull the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never carry
2
the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord to disconnect
it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil
and sharp edges. Make sure the cord will not be stepped
on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress when the
charger is in use. Do not use the charger with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger immediately.
Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of re and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord with the
female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.

rubber or neoprene gloves to safely dispose of it. If skin
is exposed to battery uids, wash the aected area with
soap and water and rinse with vinegar. If eyes are exposed
to battery chemicals, immediately ush with water for 20
minutes and seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing.
Do not short circuit – A battery pack will short circuit if a metal object makes a connection between the positive and negative contacts on the battery pack. Do not place a
battery pack near anything that may cause a short circuit, such as paper clips, coins, keys, screws, nails and other
metallic objects. A short-circuited battery pack poses a risk of re and severe personal injury.
Store your battery pack and charger in a cool, dry
place – Do not store the battery pack or charger where
temperatures may exceed 105ºF (40.5ºC), such as in direct sunlight or inside a vehicle or metal building during the summer.
Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless paint
sprayer is only partially charged. The battery pack has to
be charged completely before you use the tool for the
rst time.
2. For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge cycles by charging the battery pack frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 77°F (25°C) and charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when
new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no
longer capable of meeting the high power requirements needed for the proper operation of your paint sprayer, and
therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open re as this poses
a risk of explosion.
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to re.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive
discharge will damage the battery cells. The most
common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of partially discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage only after it has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads
will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside
the battery housing even if this overheating is not apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace batteries that have been dropped from a height of more than one
meter or those that have been exposed to violent shocks,
even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be
undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have suered serious damage. In such instances, please read
the waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.
10. If the battery pack suers overloading and overheating, the integrated protective cuto will switch o the equipment for safety reasons.
IMPORTANT! Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more
if the protective cut-o has been activated. This may
damage the battery pack.
11. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries poses a re risk and may result in injuries or an explosion.

Information about the charger and the charging process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating
plate. Never connect it to a dierent mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage.
Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Have damaged cords repaired without delay
by a qualied technician at an authorized Snow Joe® +
Sun Joe® dealer or call the Snow Joe® + Sun Joe®
customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
3. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded appliances. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
4. Keep the battery charger, battery pack and the cordless
tool out of the reach of children.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other cordless tools.
6. During periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before connecting it to the charger to recharge.
7. Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum
charging times. These charging times only apply to discharged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or
partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging and cell damage. Do not leave batteries connected to the charger for days on end.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that it has
been more than 12 months since the last time they were
charged. There is a high probability that the battery pack has already suered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below 41°F (5°C) will cause chemical damage to the cells and may cause a re.
10. Do not use batteries that have been exposed to heat
during the charging process, as the battery cells may have suered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries that have suered curvature or
deformation during the charging process or those that
exhibit other atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking, etc.).
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack (maximum recommended depth of discharge is 80%). A complete
discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature aging of the battery cells.
Protection from environmental inuences
1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from
moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near
vapors and ammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry
conditions and at an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F (5°C – 40.5°C).
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places where the
temperature is liable to reach over 105°F (40.5°C). In particular, do not leave the battery charger in a car that is
parked in the sunshine.
6. Protect batteries from overheating. Overloads,
overcharging and exposure to direct sunlight will result
in overheating and cell damage. Never charge or work
with batteries that have been overheated – replace them
immediately, if possible.
7. Store the charger and your cordless tool only in dry
locations with an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F (5°C – 40.5°C). Store your lithium-ion battery pack in a cool, dry place at a temperature of 77°F (25°C). Protect the battery pack, charger and cordless tool from humidity
and direct sunlight. Only place fully charged batteries in
storage (charged to at least 40%).
8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from freezing. Battery packs that were stored below 32°F (0°C) for more than 60 minutes must be discarded.
9. When handling batteries, be wary of electrostatic charge.
Electrostatic discharges can damage the electronic protection system and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic charging and never touch the battery poles.

Preparation
Material Preparation
The material being used may need to be thinned (diluted) with the proper solvent as specied by the material manufacturer. Never exceed the thinning advice given by the
coating manufacturer.
Fig. 6
Viscosity cup
mWARNING! Do not spray material that has a ashpoint
lower than 73.5ºF (23ºC).
After thinning the material, use the viscosity cup included to
test the viscosity of the material. Follow the instruction below for proper testing the viscosity.
1. Stir the spraying material thoroughly before measuring
viscosity (Fig. 5).
Fig. 5
2. Dip the viscosity cup completely into the spraying material
and make sure the cup is lled with the material. Hold the cup with material over the container, measure the amount
of time in seconds it takes for the stream of the material
owing out to "break" or stop being a constant stream out of the bottom of the cup. This is the Runout Time (Fig. 6).
3. For proper runout time of specic material, refer the
thinning table below.
THINNING TABLE
Material Reference Runout Time
Oil enamel 25-40 seconds
Oil based primer 30-45 seconds
Latex No thinning required
Oil stain No thinning required
Clear sealer No thinning required
Polyurethane No thinning required
Varnish 20-50 seconds
mWARNING! Do not spray material that has a runout
time greater than 70 seconds.
NOTE: Before lling the spray material into the paint container,
make sure to strain the material to remove any impurities in the
paint, which may enter and clog the system. Impurities in the paint will give poor performance and a poor nish.
Working Environment Preparation
• Make sure the surface is properly prepared for the best nish. The surface should be free from dust, dirt, rust or grease. Lightly pressure wash decks or exterior surfaces
and wait until they are dry to start spraying.
• This cordless paint sprayer is equipped with HVLP technology, which will help to avoid most overspray issues. However, it's still recommended to mask all edges and
other areas during spraying. Use drop cloths to protect the
oor and anything else in the spraying area that needs to
remain untouched.
• Before starting, have gloves, paper towels, rags, etc.
available for unexpected spills.

3. Assemble the desired nozzle tip by aligning the 4 tabs on
the tip with the notches on the sprayer and inserting the
middle needle in the middle hole of the nozzle tip. Press rmly until the nozzle tip sit securely in position. Replace the tip collar and tighten securely (Fig. 14).
mWARNING! Never tilt the sprayer at an angle greater
than 45°. Material could get into the turbine and damage
the sprayer.
Change the Nozzle Tip
The machine comes with 3 nozzle tips:
White – 1.5 mm orice. Pre-assembled in the gun
Black – 1.8 mm orice. Packed separately
Red – 2.2 mm orice. Packed separately
When selecting the appropriate nozzle tip for a specic job, consider the spray material you will be using. Generally, heavier coatings will require a larger orice size than lighter ones. For example, primers are usually thicker than the accompanying paint so you should use the black 1.8 mm
tip to prime most surfaces. Most painters will stay in the range of 1.2 mm to 2.0 mm unless the paint being applied
is specialized.

Spray Tips
Practice spraying on a scrap material like cardboard to test the spray pattern and get familiar with the ow control
feature of the sprayer.
• Ensure the surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt, and grease.
• Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could be
blown onto the newly sprayed surface.
• Cover area that not intended to be sprayed.
• Keep the nozzle at a minimum of 2 inch (5 cm) and a maximum of 12 inch (30 cm) away from the surface (Fig. 20).
• When spraying a large surface, it's recommended to spray in a "crisscross" path: rst spray in horizontal stripes and then cross over these stripes in vertical stripes (Fig. 22).
Fig. 22

• Maintain a smooth moving action during spray. Avoid stay
too long at one spot. Several times of light coating is better
than one time of thick coating, which can lead to spray
material running and dripping. Have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth out any running and dripping of the spray material if needed.

Battery + Charger O-Season Storage
1. Do not expose your battery pack or charger to water, rain or allow them to get wet. This could permanently
damage the charger and the battery pack. Do not use oil or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack as the
plastic casing can become brittle and crack, causing a
serious risk of injury.
2. Store the battery pack and charger at room temperature away from moisture. Do not store in damp locations where corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if the pack
is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures
(over 120ºF/49ºC).
3. iON+ 24VBAT lithium-ion battery packs maintain their
charge during storage longer than other battery pack
types. As a general practice, it is best to unplug the
battery charger and remove the battery pack when they
are not in use. Recharge the battery pack every 6 months to 50% capacity (2 lights on) during o-season storage to
maintain optimal battery performance.
Battery Caution + Disposal
Always dispose of your battery pack according to federal, state, and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your
area for recycling locations.
