WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:

1. Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame, pilot lights or sources of ignition such as hot objects, cigarettes, motors, electrical equipment and electrical appliances. Avoid creating sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords.

For units intended for use with only water-based

2. materials — Do not spray or clean with flammable liquids. For use with water-based liquids only.

3. For units intended for use with only water-based or mineral spirit-type materials with a minimum flash point of 21ºC (69.8ºF) — Do not spray or clean with liquids having a flash point of less than 21ºC (69.8ºF). Flash point is the temperature at which a fluid can produce enough vapor to ignite.

4. Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system, including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun and objects in and around the spray area shall be properly grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use only conductive or grounded high-pressure airless paint sprayer hoses specified by the manufacturer.

5. Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge.

6. Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension cords. Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.

7. Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide, methylene chloride and trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum. Contact the coating supplier about compatibility of material with aluminum.

8. Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable vapors. Keep pump assembly in well ventilated area. Do not spray pump assembly.

9. Do not smoke in the spray area.

10. Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the spray area.

11. Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.

solid coating, remove the gun filter and high pressure filter screens.

Spraying Technique

The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire surface. This is done by using even strokes. Keep your arm moving at a constant speed and keep the spray gun at a constant distance from the surface. The best spraying distance is 10 to 12 inches between the spray tip and the surface.

Keep the spray gun at right angles to the surface. This means moving your entire arm back and forth rather than just flexing your wrist.

The spray gun should be triggered by turning it on and off with each stroke. This will save paint and avoid paint buildup at the end of the stroke. Do not trigger the gun during the middle of a stroke. This will result in an uneven spray and splotchy coverage.

Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will ensure an even coating.

When you stop painting, lock the gun trigger lock, turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to its lowest setting and set the PRIME/SPRAY valve to PRIME. Turn the motor switch to OFF and unplug the sprayer.

Practice

1. Be sure that the paint hose is free of kinks and clear of objects with sharp cutting edges.

2. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to its to its lowest setting.

3. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve to SPRAY.

4. Turn the pressure control knob clockwise to its highest setting. The paint hose should stiffen as paint begins to flow through it.

5. Unlock the gun trigger lock.

6. Trigger the spray gun to bleed air out of the hose.

7. When paint reaches the spray tip, spray a test area to check the spray pattern.

8. Use the lowest pressure

setting necessary to get a good spray pattern. If the pressure is set too high, the spray pattern will be too light. If the pressure is set too low, tailing will appear or the paint will spatter out in gobs rather than in a fine spray.

Unclogging the Spray Tip

Should the spray tip become clogged, reverse the spray tip with the lever and pull the trigger. Once the obstruction comes out of the spray tip, release the trigger, reverse the spray tip back to the spray pattern setting, and resume spraying.

Cleanup

Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable solvents:

• Always flush spray gun preferably outside and at least one hose length from spray pump.

• If collecting flushed solvents in a one gallon metal container, place it into an empty five gallon container, then flush solvents.

• Area must be free of flammable vapors.

• Follow all cleanup instructions.

9. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to its SPRAY position.

10. Turn on the sprayer and set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure control knob to the “1” or “2” position.
