HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FiRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite, causing property damage
and/or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
= Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to keep the air
within the work area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.
Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, hot objects, cigarettes, and sparks from connecting and
disconnecting power cords or working light switches.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in working order.
Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 100° F (38° C). A fluid's
flashpoint is the temperature at which vapors from the fluid could ignite
if exposed to a flame or spark. Consult your paint supplier for
information about a fluid's flashpoint.
Keep the unit in a well ventilated location away from the work area.
The pump contains arcing parts which emit sparks.
HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials may be harmful if
inhaled, causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
= 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.
HAZARD: GENERAL

• This paint roller system is designed to be used with authorized parts
only. When using this system with parts that do not comply with the
minimum specifications and safety devices of the system 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, call Customer Service. Never repair a paint hose, replace it with
a new one.

Specifications
Flow rate ........................... 10-12 oz. per minute
Power sou rce ................... 120 VAC
Power requirement ........... 60 Hz current.
Capability .......................... Most oil and water based paints and stains. Do not
use with lacquers, lacquer thinners or any other
solvent with a flash point below 100 ° F (38°C).
General Description
This high performance power roller is a precision power tool used for both
interior and exterior painting and may be used with both water (latex) and oil
based paints.
Use of oil-based paints must be limited to only those paints which can
be cleaned with mineral spirits. Latex paints can be cleaned with
soapy, lukewarm water. DO NOT use hot water when cleaning or
flushing the unit.
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.
[IkWARNING I
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.

Extension Cord Selection
If an extension cord is used, make sure that it is of the 3-conductor type with
NEMA connectors so a continuous grounding circuit is provided from the tool
to the power circuit receptacle. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. Also, be sure that the conductor size is large enough to prevent
excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible motor
damage to the unit. A 14 or 12 gauge cord is recommended.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix
W-A following the cord type designation. For example, SJTW-A to indicate
that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

PAINT. No paint will flow until handle button is depressed.
2. PRESS and HOLD handle button until paint appears
through the roller cover. When roller cover is saturated,
RELEASE the handle button and begin rolling. PRESS
and RELEASE handle button as necessary for paint flow.
You may also prime your roller by flipping the selector
switch to CLEAN. The handle button will not need to be

paint appears through the roller cover.
Helpful Painting Tips
, Practice controlling the paint flow while painting on a piece of scrap wood or cardboard. Do not overload the roller
with paint. An overloaded roller will slide, drip, and spatter excessively.
When painting with the roller, make sure your woodwork, floor, and furnishings are sufficiently protected against any
drips or spatters.
• The spatter shield serves as a rest for the roller when the arm is not in use. Make sure the unit is turned OFF and
the roller cover is not saturated with paint when using the spatter shield for rest periods, or paint will drip and
accumulate in the spatter shield.
During extended break periods, place your roller cover assembly in a plastic bag to keep it from drying out.
When removing or changing any accessories from the roller handle, it is likely that some material will drip from the handle
and the accessory.
o Turn the unit OFF prior to removing any accessories or components, and make sure your floors and furnishings are
protected from dripping paint.
• To minimize dripping material from the handle and accessories, follow the steps below.
1. Press the quick-release tabs on the handle (or the
extension).
2. Pull the handle and the accessory apart, making sure to
keep the connecting ends pointed up.
