SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This manual contains information which must be read and understood before using the equipment. When you come to an
area which has one of the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain to heed the safeguard.
WARNING
Important safety information indicates a hazard which may cause serious injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Important information that tells how to prevent damage to equipment or how to avoid causes of minor injuries.
Notes: Gives important information which should be given special attention.
CAUTION
THIS UNIT IS PROVIDED WITH A THERMALLY PROTECTED AUTOMATIC RESET. IF AN OVERLOAD
OCCURS THE THERMALLY PROTECTED AUTOMATIC RESET DISCONNECTS THE MOTOR FROM THE
POWER SUPPLY.
• Motor will restart without warning when protector automatically resets.
• Always disconnect motor from power supply before working on equipment.
• When thermally protected automatic reset disconnects the motor from the power supply, relieve pressure by
turning priming valve to "prime" A .
• Turn ON-OFF switch OFF.
CAUTION: THE CAUSE OF THE OVERLOAD SHOULD BE CORRECTED BEFORE RESTARTING. (SEE
TROUBLE SHOOTING )

WARNING
HAZARD
Injection Injury - A high pressure stream of paint pro-
duced by this equipment can pierce the skin and
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation.
PREVENTION
• Maximum operating range of the gun - 2500 PSI fluid
pressure.
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to come in contact
with the fluid stream. DO NOT come in contact with a fluid
stream created by 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 the gun trigger,shut fluid pump off and
release all pressure before servicing, cleaning tip guard,
changing tips, or leaving unattended. Simply turning off
the electrical power will not release pressure in the
system. The Prime Spray Valve must be turned to the
prime A position to relieve the pressure.
• ALWAYS have the tip guard in place while spraying. The
tip guard provides some protection against injection
injuries but is mainly a warning device.
DO NOT TREAT AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injectioncan lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin
is a traumatic injury. It is important to treat the
injury surgically 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.
•
ALWAYS remove spray tip before flushing or cleaning
the system.
• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, abuse
etc. A leak is capable of injecting material into the skin.
The paint hose should be inspected before each use.
• NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger
lock and trigger guard in place and in working order.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 2500 P.S.I.
(Includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose).
• In case of skin injection see physician immediately.
Refer to Cleaning Instructions.

WARNING
HAZARD PREVENTION
Explosion or fire - Solvent and paint fumes can explode or
ignite, causing property damage and or severe injury.
• Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks,
open flames such as pilot lights, hot objects such as
cigarettes, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords and working light switches.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in
working order.
• Keep the pump away from spray area to avoid solvent
and paint fumes. The pump contains arcing parts which
emit sparks.
• Do not spray paints and other inflammable fluids which
have a flashpoint below 21° C (70° F). (Flashpoint is the
temperature at which a fluid begins giving off a sufficient
amount of flammable vapor that could ignite when exposed to a flame or spark.)
• High velocity flow of material through equipment may
develop static electricity. The equipment being used, and
objects in and around the spray area must be properly
grounded to prevent static discharge and sparks.
• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid
hoses for airless applications. Be sure that gun is grounded
through hose connections.
• Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.
(See proper grounding instructions.)
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's safety
precautions and warnings.
• WHEN FLUSHING EQUIPMENT use lowest possible
pressure.

WARNING
HAZARD
Explosion hazard incompatible materials - May cause
property damage or severe injury.
Hazardous vapors - Paints, solvents, insecticides, and
other materials may be harmful if inhaled causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
General - May cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION
• DO NOT USE BLEACH.
• DO NOT use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents.
• Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene
chloride and 1,1,1 - Trichlorethane are not compatible
with aluminum and may cause an explosion. If unsure of
a material’s compatibility with aluminum, contact your
coatings supplier.
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that
vapors may be inhaled. Read all instructions with the
mask to insure that it will provide the necessary protection
against the inhalation of harmful vapors.
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before operating.
• Comply with all appropriate local, state and national
codes governing ventilation, fire prevention, and operation.
• The United States Government Safety Standards have
been adopted under Occupational Safety and Health Act.
These standards, particularly the General Standards,
Part 1910 and construction Standard, Part 1926, should
be consulted.
• This high pressure airless pump is designed to be used
with authorized parts only. When using this pump with
parts that do not comply with the minimum specifications
and safety devices of the pump manufacturer, the user
assumes all risks and liabilities.
• Before each use, check all hoses for cuts, leaks, abrasion
or bulging of cover or damage or movement of couplings.
If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately. Never repair a paint hose. Replace it with another
grounded hose.
• All hoses, swivels, guns, and accessories used with this
unit must be pressure rated at or above 2500 PSI.
• DO NOT spray on windy days.

Extension Cord
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 14 or 12
gauge cord is recommended.
NOTE: More than 100 feet of extension cord is not
recommended. Use more paint hose, not more
extension cord. Shorter extension cords will assure
maximum electrical power for proper operation.
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.
Improper installation of the
WARNING
grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and has
a grounding plug that looks like plug illustrated in Figure 2
(A) below. A temporary adapter which looks like the adapter
illustrated in Figure 2 (B) and (C), may be used to connect
this plug to a 2 pole receptacle as shown in Figure 2 (B) if
a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary
adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet as shown in Figure 2 (A) can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear lug, or the
like 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.

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 an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding
wire and must be connected to grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have
the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
