— Do not spray or clean with ammable 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 ash point of 21ºC
(69.8ºF) — Do not spray or clean with liquids having a
ash point of less than 21ºC (69.8ºF). Flash point is the
temperature at which a uid can produce enough vapor to
ignite.
4. Paint or solvent owing through the equipment is able to
result in static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of
re 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 specied by the

General Description
This airless line striper is a precision power tool used to spray
many types of material for many types of applications including
parking lots, curbs, and athletic elds. Read and follow this
instruction manual carefully for proper operating instructions,
maintenance, and safety information.
Operator Controls
The following section describes the operator controls on the
spray gun and line striper.
Spray Gun Trigger Lock
Always engage the gun’s trigger
lock when the gun is not in use.
The gun is locked when the trigger
lock is at a 90º angle (perpendicular
to the trigger in either direction).
Spray Lever
The spray lever is a dual-function lever. It is
located on the cart handle. The spray lever
controls the throttle on the engine as well
as the trigger on the spray gun. The initial
pull of the spray lever engages the throttle
and revs up the engine. This engages the
engine clutch with the pump and causes the
sprayer to build pressure. Fully pulling the
spray lever triggers the spray gun. While striping, the spray lever
should be fully pulled for proper operation.
NOTE: The sprayer is equipped with an automatic safety
shut-off switch to prevent the sprayer from overpressurizing. When the PRIME/SPRAY knob is
in the SPRAY position, pulling and holding the
spray lever half way without triggering the spray
gun will engage the safety shut-off switch. Refer
to the Maintenance section if the safety shut-off
switch engages.
PRIME/SPRAY Knob
The PRIME/SPRAY knob directs uid to
the spray hose when set to SPRAY or
the return tube when set to PRIME. It is
located on the side of the pump housing.
The arrows on the PRIME/SPRAY knob
show the rotation directions for PRIME
and SPRAY.
