important safety instructions
WARNING:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electric shock, and the injury to persons, read and understand all instructions included in this manual. Be familiar with the controls and the proper usage of the equipment.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the operator’s manual carefully. Learn the machine’s applications and limitations as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition such as cigarettes, motors, and electrical equipment.
For units intended for use with only water-based or mineral spirit-type materials with a minimum flash point of 60°C (140°F), do not spray or clean with liquids having a flash point less than 60°C (140°F).

Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
Never use the sprayer without a spray tip installed.
An injection injury can lead to possible amputation.
See a physician immediately.
Never put your hand in front of the spray tip when in use. Gloves will not always provide protection against an injection injury.
Wear protective clothing to keep paint off skin and hair, along with a mask or respirator during use. Paints, solvents, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or if they come into contact with the body.
Always unplug the paint station, shut the unit off and release pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip or guard, changing the tip, or leaving unattended.
Plastic can cause sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose a spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when spraying flammable materials.
Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
Do not attempt to clean or unclog the spray tip with your finger.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

Selecting a spray tip
See Figure 12, page 17.
Spray tips come in a variety of hole sizes and fan widths.
Your unit includes two reversible spray tips with a hole size of .015 in. that will work for a wide variety of applications. The 415 spray tip has a fan width of 8-10 in. The 515 spray tip has a fan width of 10-12 in.
HOLE SIZE: Spray tip hole size determines the flow rate, that is the amount of paint that is discharged from sprayer.
A larger hole size is best for thicker materials. A smaller hole size is best for thinner materials.
FAN SIZE: Fan width determines the size of the spray pattern when sprayer is held approximately 12 in. from surface to be painted.
A narrow fan width will provide thicker coverage of material and is better suited for small, tight areas.
A wide fan width will give thinner coverage of material and provide better coverage on large, broad areas.
Spray tip NUMBERS: When selecting a spray tip, the last three numbers of the spray tip number contains information on hole size and fan width.
For example if the spray tip number is 1415, the 4, when doubled is the approximate fan width of paint when applied 12 inches from surface. The last two numbers, 15, refer to the hole size in inches. In this case .015 in.

Spray tip WEAR: It is important to replace or spray tips when they become worn. A worn spray tip will cause uneven
application and finish of material. Over time the spray tip hole size increases and the width of the fan spray decreases.
When using latex paint, spray tips need to be replaced between 15 and 40 gallons. For oil based materials, replace spray tips after 35 to 60 gallons of use.
To increase the life of your spray tips, use the lowest pressure setting needed to apply an even coating of material.
WARNING:
This is a high pressure device. To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and understand operator's manual. To reduce the risk of injection do not point sprayer at any part of the body, persons, or unit itself. In case of skin injection, seek medical attention immediately. Failure to heed this may cause serious personal injury.
Spraying
See Figure 13, page 17.
Ensure surface to be painted is free of dust, dirt, and grease.
Mask or cover any areas not intended to be painted or stained. Be aware of wind that may cause your paint or stain to spray into areas not desired. Always use drop cloths or other cover to protect areas that are not intended to be painted or stained.
Select spray tip and seat securely into nozzle tip guard. Arrow on spray tip should face direction of spray.
Plug in the paint station.

NOTE: If spray tip becomes clogged, turn 180° and spray into waste container to clear clog. Return spray tip to spray position and continue spraying.
Lock pistol-grip sprayer trigger and follow release pressure procedure when finished or stopping for any reason.
painting tips
See Figures 14-15, page 17.
Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material to test your spray pattern before beginning. If you cannot get a good spray pattern see Troubleshooting section.
To create an even coating over the entire surface:
•Keep the sprayer an even distance from the area being sprayed, about 12 inches from the spray tip of the sprayer to the surface being sprayed.
•Operate the sprayer in straight horizontal strokes. Do
10 — English
OPERATION
not hold the sprayer at an angle. This will result in uneven coverage.
•Depress the trigger to start the spray at the beginning of the stroke and release the trigger as you end the stroke. To prevent material build-up, do not keep the trigger depressed as you proceed to the next stroke.
•Make one pass for each stroke. Overlap strokes in halves for full coverage.
When finished, return any unused paint or stain to its original container and thoroughly clean the sprayer.
Painting with the roller attachment
See Figures 16-17, pages 17 - 18.
NOTE: The pistol-grip sprayer is used to control the flow of paint into the roller attachment. Pull the trigger only when more paint is needed on the roller.
Turn lock-off thumbscrew counterclockwise to lock pistolgrip sprayer trigger.
Turn off paint station and release pressure from spraying.
