Read all safety information before operating the equipment. Save these instructions.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
To reduce the risks of re or explosion, electrical shock and the injury to persons, read and understand all instructions included in this manual. Be familiar with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING  Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the green grounding wire to either at blade terminal. The wire with insulation having a green outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualied electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug will not t the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician.
WARNING: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Flammable vapors, such as solvent and paint vapors, in work area can ignite or explode.
PREVENTION:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area. Keep a good
supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation of ammable
vapors. Keep pump assembly in well ventilated area. Do not
spray pump assembly.
• Use extreme caution when using materials with a ashpoint
below 100ºF (38ºC). Flashpoint is the temperature that a uid can produce enough vapors to ignite.
• Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes,
portable electric lamps and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and
gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light
switches on or o when ammable vapors are present.
• Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Hold spray gun rmly to the side of a grounded pail when
triggering into pail.
• If there is static sparking or if you feel a shock, stop operation immediately.
• Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed.
Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
• 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.
• Keep a re extinguisher in work area.
IMPORTANT: Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. 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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A 12 gauge cord is recommended. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-A after the cord type designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use.
IMPORTANT: When the sprayer is used with a generator or uncontrolled line voltage, the use of Titan’s “Line Surge Protector” (P/N 800-935) is recommended.

WARNING: INJECTION INJURY
A high pressure paint stream produced by this equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to
serious injury and possible amputation. See a physician
immediately.
PREVENTION:
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
• Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For
example, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.
• Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without the nozzle tip guard in place.
• Only use a nozzle tip specied by the manufacturer.
• Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the case where the nozzle tip clogs while spraying,
ALWAYS lock gun trigger, shut pump o, and release all
pressure before servicing, cleaning tip or guard, or changing tip. Pressure will not be released by turning o the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valve must be turned to their appropriate positions to relieve system
pressure. Refer to PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE described in
the pump manual.
• Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while
unattended. When the unit is not in use, turn o the unit and relieve the pressure in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs,
seek medical attention immediately.
Important Safety Information
• Check hoses and parts for signs of damage, a leak can inject
material into the skin. Inspect hose before each use. Replace any damaged hoses or parts.
• This system is capable of producing 3300 PSI / 22.8 MPa. Only
use replacement parts or accessories that are specied by the manufacturer and that are rated a minimum of 3300 PSI. This
includes spray tips, nozzle guards, guns, extensions, ttings,
and hose.
• Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the
trigger lock is functioning properly.
• Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.
• Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls. Pressure will not be released by turning o the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valve must be turned to their appropriate positions to relieve system pressure. Refer to PRESSURE
RELIEF PROCEDURE described in the pump manual.
• Always remove the spray tip before ushing or cleaning the
system.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury which can lead
to possible amputation. It is important to treat the injury as soon as possible. DO NOT delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is a concern with some coatings injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
WARNING: GENERAL
Can cause severe injury or property damage.
PREVENTION:
• Always wear appropriate gloves, eye protection, clothing and a respirator or mask when painting. Hazardous vapors

Pressure Indicator
The pressure indicator shows the current operating pressure of the sprayer. It has three dierent indications: blinking yellow, solid yellow, and solid green.
Blinking Yellow
When the pressure indicator is blinking yellow, the sprayer is operating between 0 and 200 PSI. A blinking yellow pressure indicator means:
• The sprayer is plugged in and turned “ON”
• The sprayer is at priming pressure (little or no pressure)
• It is safe to move the PRIME/SPRAY valve between positions
• It is safe to change or replace the spray tip

when the pressure control knob is set at a higher pressure and the PRIME/SPRAY valve is in the SPRAY position, either the spray tip is worn or the sprayer is in need of service/repair.
Solid Yellow
When the pressure indicator is solid yellow, the sprayer is operating between 201 and 1900 PSI. A solid yellow pressure indicator means:
• The sprayer is at the proper pressure setting for spraying stain, lacquer, varnish, and multi-colors
• If the pressure indicator goes to solid yellow when the
pressure is set so that it starts at solid green, it indicates one of the following:
a. Tip Wear Indicator — when spraying with latex or at high pressure
the solid yellow appears. This means the tip is worn and needs to be replaced.
b. Tip Too Large — when a tip that is too large for the sprayer is put
in the gun, the pressure indicator will turn from solid green to solid yellow.
c. Fluid Section Wear — if a solid yellow pressure indicator appears
when using a new tip and the pressure is set at maximum, service may be required (worn packings, worn piston, stuck valve, etc...).
Solid Green
When the pressure indicator is solid green, the sprayer is operating between 1901 and 3300 PSI. A solid green pressure indicator means:
• The sprayer is at the proper pressure setting for spraying oil-
based and latex house paints
• The sprayer is operating at peak performance at a high
pressure setting
Motor Running Indicator
The Motor Running indicator is on when the motor is commanded to run. This indicator is used by service centers to troubleshoot motor problems.

when spraying textured products. This may include adjustment to gun position, spraying distance, and pressure settings as well as the addition of a splatter nozzle.
Hold the gun perpendicular to the surface and always at equal
distance from the surface. Depending on the type of material, surface, or desired spray pattern, the gun should be held at a distance of 12 to 14 inches (30 to 35 cm).
Move the gun either across or up and down the surface at a steady rate. Moving the gun at a consistent speed conserves material and provides even coverage. The correct spraying speed allows a full, wet coat of material to be applied without runs or sags.
Holding the gun closer to the surface deposits more material on the surface and produces a narrower spray pattern. Holding the gun
farther from the surface produces a thinner coat and wider spray pattern. If runs, sags, or excessive material occur, change to a spray tip with a smaller orice. If there is an insucient amount of material on the surface or you desire to spray faster, a larger orice tip should be selected.
Maintain uniform spray stroke action. Spray alternately from left to
right and right to left. Begin movement of the gun before the trigger
is pulled.

For corners and edges, split the center of the spray pattern on the corner or edge and spray vertically
so that both adjoining sections
receive approximately even amounts of paint.
When spraying with a shield, hold it rmly against the surface. Angle the spray gun slightly away from the shield and toward the surface. This will prevent paint from being forced underneath.
Shrubs next to houses should be tied back and covered with a canvas cloth. The cloth should be removed as soon as possible. Titan gun extensions are extremely helpful in these situations.
Nearby objects such as automobiles, outdoor furniture, etc. should be moved or covered whenever in the vicinity of a spray job. Be careful of any other surrounding objects that could be damaged by
overspray.
Avoid arcing or holding the gun at an angle. This will result in an uneven nish.
Practice
1. Make sure that the spray hose is free of kinks and clear of
Ospray
objects with sharp cutting edges.
2. Set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure control
knob to the “Min” setting in the yellow zone.
3. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to its SPRAY position.
4. Turn the pressure control knob clockwise to its highest setting
in the green zone. The spray hose should stien as material
begins to ow through it.
5. Unlock the gun trigger lock.
Too Thick
6. Trigger the spray gun to bleed air out of the hose.
7. When material 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 ne spray.

Cleanup
Ring
Inlet Screen
Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable solvents:
• Always ush spray gun preferably outside and at least one
hose length from spray pump.
• If collecting ushed solvents in a one gallon metal container, place
it into an empty ve gallon container, then ush solvents.
• Area must be free of ammable vapors.
• Follow all cleanup instructions.
IMPORTANT: The sprayer, hose, and gun should be cleaned thoroughly after daily use. Failure to do so permits material to build up, seriously affecting the performance of the unit.
Always spray at minimum pressure with the gun nozzle tip removed when using mineral spirits or any other solvent to clean the sprayer, hose, or gun. Static electricity buildup may result in a fire or explosion in the presence of flammable vapors.
1. Follow the “Pressure Relief Procedure” found in the Operation
section of this manual.
2. Remove the gun tip and tip guard and clean with a brush using the appropriate solvent.
3. Place the foot valve into a container of the appropriate solvent (refer to recommendations of the material manufacturer). An example of an appropriate solvent is water for latex paint.
4. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
5. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to its PRIME position.
