be given special attention.
produced by this equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation. See a physician immediately
A high pressure fluid stream
.
• 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 the maximum operating pressure range of the airless sprayer. 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 25 feet (7.6 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.
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 the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current the 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.
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.

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.
16. Turn on the sprayer.
17. Increase the pressure by turning the pressure control knob slowly clockwise toward the green zone and test the spray pattern on a piece of cardboard. Adjust the pressure control knob until the spray from the gun is completely atomized. Try to keep the pressure control knob at the lowest setting that maintains good atomization.
NOTE: Turning the pressure up higher then needed to
atomize the paint will cause premature tip wear and additional overspray.
NOTE: If the sprayer is equipped with an Xact Digital
Control System, go to “Xact Digital Control System Operation” at the end of the Operation section of this Manual.
Control Panel Indicators
The following is a description of the control panel 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.

s
• 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.

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%.
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. 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. 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.
