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.
This symbol indicates a potential hazard that may cause
serious injury or loss of life. Important safety information will
follow.
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.
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 3300
PSI/228BAR fluid pressure.
PREVENTION:
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
NOTE: Notes give important information which should
be given special attention.
2©Titan Tool Inc. All rights reserved.
• 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 3300 PSI/228
BAR. This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and
hose.
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.
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.
GAS ENGINE (WHERE APPLICABLE)
Always place sprayer outside of structure in fresh air. Keep all
solvents away from engine exhaust. Never fill fuel tank with a
running or hot engine. Hot surface can ignite spilled fuel.
Always attach ground wire from pump to a grounded object.
Refer to engine owner’s manual for complete safety
information.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE TO INCOMPATIBLE
MATERIALS - will cause severe injury or
property damage.
PREVENTION:
• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.
• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as
bleach, mildewcide, methylene chloride and 1,1,1 trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum.
• Contact your coating supplier about the compatibility of
material with aluminum.
HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS - Paints, solvents,
insecticides, and other materials can be
harmful if inhaled or come in contact with body.
Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting, or
poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be inhaled. Read
all instructions supplied with the mask to be sure it will
provide the necessary protection.
•Wear protective eyewear.
•Wear protective clothing as required by coating
manufacturer.
HAZARD: GENERAL - Can cause severe injury or
property damage.
PREVENTION:
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before
operating equipment.
• Follow all appropriate local, state, and national codes

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.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A
temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated in
the figure below may be used to connect this plug to a 2 pole
receptacle as shown if a properly grounded outlet is not
available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet as shown below can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the grounding
wire extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place
by a metal screw.
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 WA after the cord type designation. For example, a
designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would
be appropriate for outdoor use.

Electronic Pressure Control Indicators
The following is a description of the electronic pressure control
indicators.
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.
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 or the sprayer is in need of service/repair.
NOTE: Turning the pressure up higher then needed to
atomize the paint will cause premature tip wear
and additional overspray.

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 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.
Pressure Relief Procedure
Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure when
shutting the unit down for any purpose, including
servicing or adjusting any part of the spray system,
changing or cleaning spray tips, or preparing for cleanup.
1. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger
lock to the locked position.
2. Turn the pressure control knob
counterclockwise to its OFF position in
the black zone.
3. Unlock the gun by turning the gun
trigger lock to the unlocked position.
4. 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.
5. Trigger the gun to remove any pressure
that may still be in the hose.
6. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
7. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME
position.
Spraying
POSSIBLE INJECTION HAZARD. Do not spray without the
tip guard in place. Never trigger the gun unless the tip is
in either the spray or the unclog position. Always engage
the gun trigger lock before removing, replacing, or
cleaning tip.

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

Too Thick
Arcing Gun at angle
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.
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 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 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.
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.
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 siphon tube into a container of the appropriate
solvent. Examples of the appropriate solvent are water for
latex paint or mineral spirits for oil-based paints.
4. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
5. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to its PRIME position.
6. Turn the unit on and set the pressure to
Turbo PulseClean by turning the pressure
control knob to its CLEAN position in the
red zone.
7. Allow the solvent to circulate through the
unit and flush the paint out of the return
hose into the metal waste container.
8. Turn the unit off by moving the pressure control knob to
the OFF position in the black zone.
9. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to its SPRAY position.
10. Turn the unit on and set the pressure to Turbo PulseClean
