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.
WARNING - 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 at 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 qualied 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 t the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualied electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. Make
sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same
conguration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
product.
IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
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.
tention
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 (see chart). If an extension
cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with “SJW” or “SJTW”.
For example, a designation of SJTW would indicate that the cord
would be appropriate for outdoor use.
Cord gauge Maximum cord length
12 150 feet
14 100 feet
Wagner accessory extension cords recommended:
P/N 0090241 20 foot extension cord
P/N 0090242 35 foot extension cord
tention
When the sprayer is used with a generator or
uncontrolled line voltage, the use of Wagner’s “Line
Surge Protector” (P/N 800-935) is recommended.
Make sure to check for grounding continuity after
service is performed on any electrical components.
Use an ohmmeter to determine that there is
continuity between accessible dead-metal parts
of the product and the grounding blade of the
attachment plug.
SAFETY HAZARDS
WARNING: INJECTION INJURY
A high pressure paint stream produced by this
equipment can pierce the skin and underlying
tissues, leading to serious injury and possible
amputation. See a physician immediately.
PREVENTION:
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
• Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For
example, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.
• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not provide
protection against an injection injury.
• ALWAYS keep the tip guard in place while spraying. The tip
guard provides some protection but is mainly a warning device.
• Only use a nozzle tip specied by the manufacturer.
• Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the case
where the nozzle tip clogs while spraying, ALWAYS lock gun
trigger, shut pump o, and release all pressure before servicing,
cleaning tip or guard, or changing tip. Pressure will not be
released by turning o the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve
or pressure bleed valve must be turned to their appropriate
positions to relieve system pressure. Refer to PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE described in the pump manual (page 7).
• Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while
unattended. When the unit is not in use, turn o the unit and
relieve the pressure in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.

EN
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
i
• High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and
cause serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs,
seek medical attention immediately.
• Check hoses and parts for signs of damage, a leak can inject
material into the skin. Inspect hose before each use. Replace
any damaged hoses or parts. Only use Wagner original-highpressure hoses in order to ensure functionality, safety and
durability.
• This system is capable of producing 1600 PSI / 11.1 MPa. Only
use replacement parts or accessories that are specied by the
manufacturer and that are rated a minimum of 1600 PSI. This
includes spray tips, nozzle guards, guns, extensions, ttings, and
hose.
• Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the
trigger lock is functioning properly.
• Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.
• Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls. Pressure will not be released
by turning o the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure
bleed valve must be turned to their appropriate positions to
relieve system pressure. Refer to PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
described in the pump manual (page 7).
• Always remove the spray tip before ushing or cleaning the
system.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin is
a traumatic injury which can lead to possible
amputation. 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.
WARNING: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.
Severe injury and/or property damage can occur.
PREVENTION:
• Do not spray ammable or combustible materials near an
open ame, pilot lights or sources of ignition such as hot
objects, cigarettes, motors, electrical equipment and electrical
appliances. Avoid creating sparks from connecting and
disconnecting power cords.
• Do not spray or clean with liquids having a ash point of less
than 38ºC (100ºF). Flash point is the temperature at which a uid
can produce enough vapor to ignite.
• 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 manufacturer.
• Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to
prevent static discharge.
• Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension
cords (electric models only). Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
• Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated
hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide, methylene
chloride and trichloroethane. They are not compatible with
aluminum. Contact the coating supplier about compatibility of
material with aluminum.
• Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh
air moving through the area to keep the air within the spray
area free from accumulation of ammable vapors. Keep pump
assembly in well ventilated area. Do not spray pump assembly.
• Do not smoke in the spray area.
• Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark
producing products in the spray area.
• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and
other ammable materials.
• Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed.
Read all material Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and container labels
provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and
solvent manufacture’s safety instructions.
• Place pump at least 20 feet (6 meters) 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.
• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose
spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when spraying
ammable material.
• Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.

MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE INLET VALVE
i
i
i
Cleaning or servicing the inlet valve may be required if the unit has priming problems.
Priming problems may be prevented by properly cleaning the sprayer and following the
long-term storage steps.
YOU WILL NEED
• 8 mm (5/16”) hex wrench
• Needle nose pliers
• Warm, soapy water if using latex material
• Mineral spirits for oil based material
• Household oil (such as 10W30 motor oil or vegetable oil for example)
1. Perform the Pressure Relief Procedure, found in the main instruction
manual, to ensure the pump is shut o and depressurized. Remove
the tank lid.
Remove the inlet lter (1).
Using the lid as a tray for the parts, insert an 8 mm (5/16”) hex wrench
into the hex opening (2) and unscrew the inlet valve tting (2) from
the sprayer.
You may need to use a ball point pen, tweezers, screwdriver, O-ring
pick, and/or needle nose pliers to remove the inlet valve seat (3),
inlet valve ball (4), spring (5), and O-ring (6). A spare spring (5) is
included with your sprayer.
Suggestion for removal of the inlet valve assembly
After removing the inlet lter (1) insert an 8 mm (5/16”)
hex wrench into the hex opening (2) and unscrew the inlet
valve tting (2) from the sprayer.
Snap the lid back onto the sprayer, turn it upside down,
and tap the bottom of the sprayer a few times to loosen
the inlet seat (3), ball (4), and spring (5).
With the sprayer still upside down carefully remove the
lid. Be careful not to lose any of the removed parts unless
you plan to replace them instead of clean them.
Flip the sprayer right-side up again and remove the O-ring
(6) with an O-ring pick or tweezers.
Inspect and clean the inlet valve housing area where the inlet valve
assembly was removed with the appropriate cleaning solution.

2. Lubricate the O-ring (7) with household oil and install onto the inlet
tting (8). Lubricate the O-ring (7) once more after it is installed on
the inlet tting.
3. Replace all parts back into the inlet valve housing in the reverse order
of how they were removed.
Note the correct orientation of the inlet valve seat (3). The taper
should be facing downward upon reinstallation.
Replace inlet valve tting (2) by screwing it into the sprayer. Tighten
securely with a 8mm (5/16”) hex wrench. Torque to 50-57 in. lbs (5.5
- 6.5 N.m). Do not overtighten the inlet valve tting.
