Safety Precautions

This manual contains information that must be read and understood before using the equipment. When you come to an area that has one of the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain to heed the safeguard.

WARNING

This symbol indicates a potential hazard that may cause serious injury or loss of life. Important safety information will follow.

CAUTION

This symbol indicates a potential hazard to you or to the equipment. Important information that tells how to prevent damage to the equipment or how to avoid causes of minor injuries will follow.

NOTE: Notes give important information which should be given special attention.

WARNING

HAZARD: Injection injury - A high pressure fluid stream produced by this equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation. See a physician immediately.

DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.

The maximum operating range of the sprayer is 3200 PSI/221BAR fluid pressure.

PREVENTION:

• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.

•NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream. DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.

•NEVER put hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not provide protection against an injection injury.

•ALWAYS lock gun trigger, shut pump off, and release all pressure before servicing, cleaning tip or guard, changing tip, or leaving unattended. Pressure will not be released by turning off the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve handle must be turned to PRIME to relieve the pressure. Refer to the PRESSURE RELIEF PRESSURE described in the pump manual.

•ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while spraying. The tip guard provides some protection but is mainly a warning device.

•ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning the system.

•Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking and abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin. Inspect the hose before each use.

•NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lock and trigger guard in place.

•All accessories must be rated at or above 3200 PSI/221 BAR. This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:

Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. 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.

HAZARD: EXPLOSION AND FIRE - Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite. Severe injury and/or property damage can occur.

PREVENTION:

•Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.

•Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks, electrical appliances, flames, pilot lights, hot objects, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords or working light switches.

•Do not smoke in spray area.

•Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working order.

•Place pump at least 20 feet (6.1 m) from the spray object in a well ventilated area (add more hose if necessary). Flammable vapors are often heavier than air. Floor area must be extremely well ventilated. The pump contains arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.

•The equipment and objects in and around the spray area must be properly grounded to prevent static sparks.

•Use only conductive or grounded high-pressure fluid hose. Gun must be grounded through hose connections.

•Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.

•Always flush unit into separate metal container, at low pump pressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gun firmly against side of container to ground container and prevent static sparks.

•Follow material and solvent manufacturer's warnings and instructions.

•Use extreme caution when using materials with a flashpoint below 70° F (21° C). Flashpoint is the temperature at which a fluid can produce enough vapors to ignite.

•Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when spraying flammable materials.

•Use lowest possible pressure to flush 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.

DANGER — 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 flat 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 qualified 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 fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Pressure Indicator

The pressure indicator shows the current operating pressure of the sprayer. It has three different 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 (refer to gun manual for tip replacement instructions).

NOTE: If the pressure indicator begins blinking yellow 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, there is a leak, or the sprayer is in need of service/repair.

Solid Yellow

When the pressure indicator is solid yellow, the sprayer is operating between 200 and 1800 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 1800 and 3200 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.

5.Hold the metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a metal container to ground the gun and avoid a build up of static electricity.

6.Trigger the gun to remove any pressure that may still be in the hose.

7.Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked position.

8.Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME position.

Spraying

WARNING

Spraying Technique

The following techniques, if followed, will assure professional painting results.

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 paint to be applied without runs or sags.

Holding the gun closer to the surface deposits more paint 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 paint occur, change to a spray tip with a smaller orifice. If there is an insufficient amount of paint on the surface or you desire to spray faster, a larger orifice 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.

start	pull	release	end
stroke	trigger	trigger	stroke

Avoid arcing or holding the gun at an angle. This will result in an uneven finish.

Offspray

Too Thick

Arcing

Gun at angle

Proper lapping (overlap of spray pattern) is essential to an even finish. Lap each stroke. If you are spraying horizontally, aim at the bottom edge of the preceding stroke, so as to lap the previous pattern by 50%.

Overlap edges

1st	2nd	3rd	4th	5th
pass	pass	pass	pass	pass

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 firmly 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.

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 up to its SPRAY position.

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	Good spray pattern

ATTENTION

Ce symbole indique un danger potentiel pouvant causer des blessures corporelles ou des dommages à l'équipement. Des renseignements importants sur la façon de prévenir tout dommage à l'équipement ou toute blessure corporelle mineure sont également indiqués.

NOTA : Les remarques donnent des renseignements importants requérant une attention particulière.

AVERTISSEMENT

DANGER: BLESSURES PAR PERFORATION - Le jet de peinture à haute pression produit par cet appareil peut perforer la peau et les tissus sous-jacents et entraîner de sévères blessures pouvant nécessiter une amputation. Consultez immédiatement un médecin.

NE PAS TRAITER UNE BLESSURE PAR PERFORATION COMME UNE SIMPLE COUPURE! Une perforation peut entraîner des risques d'amputation. Consultez immédiatement un médecin.

Pression de service maximale du fluide dans l’appareil : 3200 lb/po2 / 221BAR.

MESURES PRÉVENTIVES:

•NE JAMAIS diriger le pistolet vers une quelconque partie du corps.

•NE JAMAIS mettre une quelconque partie du corps en contact avec le jet de liquide. NE JAMAIS se mettre au contact d'un jet de liquide provenant d'une fuite du flexible d'alimentation en liquide.

•NE JAMAIS placer votre main devant le pistolet. Des gants ne vous protégeront pas contre les risques de blessures par perforation.

•TOUJOURS verrouiller la gâchette du pistolet, fermer la pompe à liquide et décompresser l'appareil lorsque vous travaillez sur celui-ci, nettoyez le protecteur de tête, remplacez la tête de pulvérisation ou vous éloignez de l'appareil. Couper le moteur ne décompresse pas l'appareil. Vous devez, pour le décompresser, placer le bouton AMORÇAGE/PULVÉRISATION en position AMORÇAGE. Reportez-vous, pour cela, à la PROCÉDURE DE DÉCOMPRESSION décrite dans de ce manuel.

•TOUJOURS s'assurer que le protecteur de tête est en place lorsque vous pulvérisez. Le protecteur de tête offre une certaine protection contre les blessures par perforation mais sa principale fonction est d'ordre préventif.

•TOUJOURS ôter la tête de pulvérisation avant de purger ou nettoyer l'appareil.

•Le flexible d'alimentation en peinture peut fuir à la suite d'une usure, de chocs ou de mauvais traitements. Une fuite peut entraîner une perforation de la peau. Inspecter le flexible avant chaque utilisation.

•NE JAMAIS utiliser un pistolet dont la gâchette n'est pas munie d'un loquet ou un cran de sécurité qui soit en état de fonctionner.

•Tous les accessoires doivent être homologués pour une pression égale ou supérieure à 3200 lb/po2 / 221BAR. Cela s'applique, entre autres, aux têtes de pulvérisation, aux accessoires du pistolet et aux flexibles.

AVERTISSEMENT AUX MÉDECINS : Une perforation sous-cutanée constitue un traumatisme. Il est important de traiter la blessure de façon chirurgicale aussitôt que possible. NE RETARDEZ PAS ce traitement pour des recherches de toxicité. La toxicité n'est un risque que dans les cas où certains produits de revêtement pénètrent dans le flux sanguin. Il peut être nécessaire de faire appel à des soins de chirurgie plastique ou de reconstruction de la main.

DANGER: RISQUES D'EXPLOSION OU D'INCENDIE - Les vapeurs dégagées par le solvant ou la peinture sont explosives et inflammables et peuvent causer des corporels sérieux ou dommages matériels.

MESURES PRÉVENTIVES:

•Veiller à éviter toute accumulation de vapeurs inflammables en vous assurant que la zone où la pulvérisation a lieu est suffisamment ventilée.

•Veiller à éviter la présence de toute source incandescente telle qu'étincelle électrostatique, flamme nue, flammepilote, objet brûlant, cigarette et étincelle provenant du branchement ou du débranchement d'un cordon d'alimentation électrique ou d'un commutateur.

•Ne pas fumer dans la zone d’épandage.

•Toujours avoir un extincteur en état de fonctionner à portée de la main.

•Placer la pompe à peinture à une distance d’au moins un mètre (3 pi) (on recommande d’ailleurs une plus grande distance) de l’objet qui doit être vaporisé dans une pièce séparée bien aérée, ou à une distance d’au moins six mètres (20 pi) de celui-ci dans une zone bien aérée (utiliser d’autres tuyaux si nécessaires). Les vapeurs inflammables sont souvent plus lourdes que l’air. Le plancher doit être extrêmement bien aéré. La pompe à peinture contient des pièces pouvant créer des étincelles et enflammer les vapeurs présentes dans l’air.

Français

•Le matériel utilisé, ainsi que les objets se trouvant à proximité de la zone de pulvérisation, doivent être convenablement reliés à la terre afin d'éviter toute étincelle ou toute décharge électrostatique.

•N'utiliser que des flexibles d'alimentation en liquide à haute pression conducteurs ou reliés à la terre dans les cas d'utilisation sans air comprimé. S'assurer que le pistolet est convenablement relié à la terre par l'intermédiaire du flexible.

•Le cordon d’alimentation doit être raccordé à un circuit mis à la terre.

•Toujours purger l’appareil dans un contenant métallique séparé, en s’assurant que la pompe soit à basse pression et que le chapeau soit retiré. Tenir le pistolet fermement contre la paroi du contenant pour mettre celui-ci à la terre et empêcher l’émission d’étincelles causées par l’électricité statique.

•Se conformer aux consignes et recommandations de sécurité du fabricant du solvant ou du produit.

•S’entourer de toutes les précautions possibles lorsqu’on utilise des produits ayant un point d’éclair inférieur à 21 °C (70 °F). Le point d’éclair d’un fluide est la température à laquelle les vapeurs émanant du fluide peuvent s’enflammer au contact d’une flamme ou d’une étincelle.

•Le plastique peut être une source d’étincelles provoquées par l’électricité statique. Ne jamais utiliser une couverture en plastique pour fermer une zone d’épandage ni utiliser des toiles de protection en plastique lors de la pulvérisation de matières inflammables.

•Lorsque vous purgez l'appareil, veillez à utiliser à la pression minimale.

MOTEUR À ESSENCE

(DANS LES CAS OÙ CELA S’APPLIQUE)

Toujours placer la pompe à l’extérieur de la structure à l’air frais. Garder tous les solvants loin de l’échappement du moteur. Ne jamais remplir le réservoir à carburant lorsque le moteur est en marche ou lorsqu’il est chaud ; les surfaces chaudes risquent d’enflammer le carburant déversé accidentellement. Toujours raccorder un fil de mise à la terre entre la pompe et un objet mis à la terre, tel qu’une conduite d’eau métallique. Se reporter au guide d’utilisation du moteur pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements concernant la sécurité.

DANGER: RISQUES D'EXPLOSION PAR INCOMPATIBILITÉ DES MATÉRIAUX - Peuvent être à l'origine de corporels sérieux ou dommages matériels.

MESURES PRÉVENTIVES:

•Ne pas utiliser de matériaux contenant des agents de blanchiment ou du chlore.

•Ne pas utiliser des solvants à base d’hydrocarbure halogéné tels que l’agent anticryptogamique, le chlorure de méthylène et le trichloro-éthane-1,1,1. Ces produits ne sont pas compatibles avec l’aluminium

•Communiquer avec votre fournisseur de revêtement pour connaître la compatibilité du matériau avec l’aluminium.

DANGER: VAPEURS NOCIVES – la peinture, les solvants, les insecticides et autres matériaux peuvent être nocifs lorsqu’ils sont inhalés ou en contact avec le corps. Les vapeurs peuvent causer une nausée importante, des évanouissements ou un empoisonnement.

MESURES PRÉVENTIVES:

•Utiliser un respirateur ou un masque chaque fois qu'il y a des risques d'inhalation de vapeurs. Lire attentivement toutes les instructions se rapportant au masque pour vérifier que celui-ci vous assure une protection suffisante contre les vapeurs toxiques.

•Porter des lunettes de protection.

•Porter des vêtements de protection, conformément aux directives du fabricant de revêtement.

DANGER: GÉNÉRALITÉS - Peut causer des dommages matériels ou corporels sérieux.

MESURES PRÉVENTIVES:

•Avant d'utiliser tout équipement, lire attentivement toutes les instructions et les consignes de sécurité

•Toujours débrancher le moteur de l’alimentation électrique avant d’effectuer des travaux sur l’appareil.

•Se conformer à la législation locale, provinciale ou fédérale pour tout ce qui concerne la ventilation, la prévention des incendies et les conditions générales d'utilisation.

•Les normes de sécurité du Gouvernement américain sont régies par le Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). Il est important de consulter ces normes, en particulier la section 1910 sur le normes générales et la section 1926 sur les des normes de la construction.

•N’utiliser que les pièces autorisées par le fabricant. L’utilisateur assume tous les risques et responsabilités lorsqu’il utilise des pièces qui ne sont pas conformes aux caractéristiques techniques minimales ainsi qu’aux dispositifs de sécurité du fabricant de la pompe.

•Vérifier, avant toute utilisation, que les flexibles ne présentent pas d'entaille ou de fuite, que le couvercle ne soit pas gonflé et que les raccords ne soient pas endommagés. Si le flexible a subi l'un des dommages précités, remplacez-le immédiatement. Ne jamais réparer un flexible d'alimentation en peinture. Le remplacer par un autre flexible mis à la terre.

•Tout flexible, raccord orientable, pistolet et accessoire utilisé avec cet appareil doit pouvoir fonctionner à une pression égale ou supérieure à 3200 lb/po2 / 221BAR.

•Ne jamais pulvériser lorsqu'il vente.

•Porter des vêtements pour protéger la peau et les cheveux contre tout contact avec la peinture.

Instructions de mise à la terre

Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre. La mise à la terre réduit les risques d'électrocution lors d'un court-circuit en permettant au courant de s'écouler par le fil de mise à la terre. Cet appareil est muni d'un cordon électrique avec fil de mise à la terre ainsi que d'une fiche de terre. La fiche doit être branchée sur une prise installée correctement et mise à la terre conformément à la réglementation et aux codes en vigueur.

DANGER — Une prise de terre mal branchée peut être à l'origine d'électrocutions. S'il s'avère nécessaire de réparer ou de remplacer le cordon électrique ou la fiche, ne pas brancher le fil vert de mise à la terre sur l'une ou l'autre des bornes à broche plate. Le fil recouvert d'un isolant vert avec ou sans rayures jaunes est le fil de mise à la terre et doit être branché sur la broche de mise à la terre.

Si vous ne comprenez pas les instructions de mise à la terre ou si vous n'êtes pas sûr que l'appareil est correctement mis à la terre, contactez un électricien agréé. Ne pas modifier la fiche d'origine. Si la prise ne convient pas à la fiche, faites installer la prise adéquate par un électricien agréé.

Prise de terre

Goupille de mise à la terre

Couvercle du boîtier de prise de terre

ATTENTION

Utiliser uniquement une rallonge à trois fils munie d'une fiche de terre dans une prise secteur mise à la terre correspondant au type de fiche de l'appareil. S'assurer que votre rallonge est en bon état. Lorsque vous utilisez une rallonge, assurez-vous qu'elle soit d'un calibre suffisant pour supporter l'intensité du courant requise par l'appareil. Une rallonge trop mince entraîne une chute de tension, une diminution de l'intensité et une surchauffe. Une rallonge de calibre 12 est recommandée. Si vous devez utiliser une rallonge à l’extérieur, celle-ci doit comprendre la marque W-A après la désignation indiquant le type de cordon. Par exemple, la désignation SJTW-A indique que le cordon est conçu pour être utilisé à l’extérieur.

S’assurer que tous les flexibles et pistolets à dépression soit mis à la terre et conçus pour accepter des pressions de liquide d’au moins 3 200 lb/po2 (220 bars).

4.S’assurer que le bouton de régulation de pression soit à la position OFF (zone noire).

5.S’assurer que le commutateur soit à la position OFF.

6.Verser 15 ml (une cuillère à table) de lubrifiant pour joint de piston (Piston Lube) dans la cuvette.

ATTENTION

Ne jamais faire fonctionner l’appareil sans liquide pendant plus de 10 secondes, ce qui pourrait user inutilement les tampons graisseurs.

7.S’assurer que l’alimentation électrique soit d’au moins 15 A à 120 V.

8.Brancher le cordon d’alimentation dans une prise adéquatement mise à la terre située à une distance d’au moins 7,5 m (25 pi) de la surface à vaporiser.

ATTENTION

Les rallonges utilisées doivent être trifilaires, de calibre 12 et dotées d’une fiche à broche de MALT; on ne doit jamais retirer cette troisième broche ou utiliser un adaptateur.

Préparation d’un nouveau vaporisateur

Si cet appareil est neuf, il contient encore un liquide d’essai mis en usine pour le protéger de la corrosion en cours d’expédition ou d’entreposage. Ce liquide doit être complètement éliminé au moyen d’essence minérale avant que l’appareil puisse être utilisé.

ATTENTION

La détente du pistolet doit toujours être verrouillée lorsqu’on procède à ces vérifications préliminaires.

1.Placez le flexible d'aspiration dans un récipient contenant de l'essence minérale avec un point d'inflammation au moins égal à 60ºC.

2.Mettre le flexible de retour dans un contenant de purge métallique.

3.Régler la pression au minimum en mettant le bouton de régulation à la position Min (zone jaune).

Préparation avant de peindre

Avant de peindre, il est important de s’assurer que le liquide dans l’appareil est compatible avec le produit à utiliser.

NOTA: L’incompatibilité liquide/produit peut provoquer le blocage des soupapes, ce qui entraînerait le besoin de démonter et de nettoyer la section des liquides du vaporisateur.

ATTENTION

La détente du pistolet doit toujours être verrouillée lorsqu’on procède à ces vérifications préliminaires.

1.Placez le flexible d'aspiration dans un récipient contenant le solvant approprié (consultez les consignes du fabricant). Par exemple, l'eau est le solvant adapté pour la peinture au latex.

2.Mettre le flexible de retour dans un contenant de purge métallique.

3.Régler la pression au minimum en mettant
