1. Safety regulations for Airless spraying
A
ll local regulations in force must be observed.
For secure handling of Airless high-pressure spraying units the following safety regulations are to be ob­s
erved:
P Flash point
Only use coating materials with a flash point of 21 °C or above without additional heating. The flash point is the lowest temperature at which vapours develop from the coat-
ing material. These vapours are sufficient to form an inflammable mixture over the air above the coating material.
P Explosion protection
Do not use the unit in work places which
are covered to the explosion protection
regulations.
P Danger of explosion and fire through
sources of flame during spraying work
There may be no sources of flame such as,
for example, open fires, smoking of ciga-
rettes, cigars or tobacco pipes, sparks,
glowing wires, hot surfaces, etc. in the
vicinity.
P Danger of injury through the spray jet
Caution! Danger of injury thr
ough injection!
Never point the spray gun at yourself, other persons or animals.
Never use the spray gun without spray jet safety guard. The spray jet may not come into contact with any
part of the body
.
In working with Airless spray guns, the high spray pressures arising can cause very dangerous injuries. If contact is made with the spray jet, coating material can be injected into the skin. Do not treat a spray in­jury as a harmless cut. In the case of injury to the skin through coating material or solvents, consult a doctor for quick and correct treatment. Inform the doctor about the coating material or solvent used.
Danger

P Secure spray gun against
unintended operation
A
lways secure the spray gun when mounting or dis-
mounting the tip and in case of interruption to work.
P Recoil of spray gun
In case of high operating pressure, pulling t
he trigger can effect a recoil force of up
to 15 N. If you are not prepared for this, your hand
can be thrust backwards or your balance lost. This can lead to injury.
P Respiratory protection for protec-
tion against vapours of solvents
Wear respiratory protection when spraying. The user must be provided with a breathing mask.
P Prevention of occupational illnesses
Protective clothing, gloves and possibly skin protection cream are necessary for the protection of the skin.
Observe the regulations of the manufacturer concerning coating materials, solvents and cleaning agents in prepa­ration, processing and cleaning units.
P Max. operating pressure
Max. permissible operating pressure for spray gun, spray gun accessories and high-pressure hose may not fall short of the maximum operating pressure of 230 bar (23 MPa) stated on the unit.
P High-pressure hose (safety note)
Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pres­sure hose is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this reason the electric resistance between the con­nections of the high-pressure hose must be equal or lower than 1 M.
For reasons of function, safety and durability use only original WAGNER high-pressure hoses.

Safety regulations
P Electrostatic charging (formation of
sparks or flame)
U
nder certain circumstances, electrostat­ic charging can occur on the unit due to the rate of flow of the coating material when spraying. On discharging this can result in the emergence of sparks or fire.
It is therefore necessary that the unit is always earth­ed through the electrical installation. The connection must take place through a correctly earthed two­pole-and-earth socket outlet.
P Using unit on construction sites
Connection to the mains only through a special feed point, e.g. through an error protection installation with INF 30 mA.
P Setting up the unit
When working indoors
Vapors containing solvents may not be al­lowed to build up in the area of the device.
Setting up the unit on the side a way from the sprayed object.
A minimum distance of 5 m between the
unit and spray gun is to be maintained.
When working outdoors Vapors containing solvents may not be allowed to
blow toward the unit. Note the direction of the wind.
Set the unit up in such a way that vapors containing solvents do not r
each the unit
and build up there. A minimum distance of 5 m between the
unit and spray gun is to be maintained.
P Ventilation when spraying in rooms
Adequate ventilation must be guaranteed for the r
emoval
of the solvent vapours.
P Suction installations
These are to be set-up by the user of the unit according to local regulations.
P Earthing of the object
The object to be coated must be earthed.
P Cleaning units with solvents
When cleaning the unit with solvents, the solvent should never be sprayed or pumped back into a container with a small opening (bunghole). An explosive gas/air mixture can be produced. The container
must be earthed.

P Cleaning the unit
Danger of short circuit through pene­trating water!
Never spray down the unit with high­pressure or high-pressure steam clean­ers.
P Work or repairs on the electrical
equipment
Only have this work carried out by a qualified electrician. No liability will be taken for incorrect installation.
P Working on electrical components
Remove the mains plug from the socket for all such works.
P Setting-up on uneven surfaces
The front side of the unit must point downwards to pre­vent sliding away.

2. General view of application
2.1 Application
A
ll painting jobs in the workshop and on the building site, small and large-area dispersion work with the spray gun or internally fed Airless roller, corrosion and fire pro­tection.
E
xamples of objects of spraying
Doors, door frames, balustrades, furniture, wooden cladding, fences, radiators (heating) and steel parts, in­ternal ceilings and walls, and also façades, basement garages, fire and noise protection for steel and wooden construction.
2.2 Coating materials
Processible coating materials
Dilutable lacquers and paints or those containing sol­vents, two-component coating materials, dispersions, la­tex paints, façade paints, roof and attic coatings, fire and corrosion protection material.
No other materials should be used for spraying without WAGNER’s approval.
Filtering
In spite of the suction filter, the insertion filter in the spray gun and the high-pressure filter, filtering of the coating material is to be recommended in general.
Stir coating material before commencement of work.
V
iscosity
With this unit it is possible to pr
ocess highly viscous
coating materials of up to ar
ound 30.000 MPa·s.
If highly viscous coating materials cannot be taken in by suction, they must be diluted in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Two-component coating material
The appropriate processing time must be adhered to ex­actly. Within this time rinse through and clean the unit meticulously with the appropriate cleaning materials.
Coating materials with sharp-edged additional materials
These have a str
ong wear and tear ef
fect on valves, high-pressure hose, spray gun and tip. The durability of these parts can be r
educed appr
eciably thr
ough this.
Attention: Make sure, when stirring up with motor-driven agitators that no air bubbles are stirred in. Air bubbles disturb when spraying and can, in fact, lead to interruption of operation.
i
Pay attention to the Airless quality of the coating materials to be processed.
i
3. Description of unit
3.1 Airless process
T
he main areas of application are thick layers of highly viscous coating material for large areas and a high con­sumption of material.
A piston pump takes in the coating material by suction and conveys it to the tip. Pressed through the tip at a pressure of up to a maximum of 23 MPa (230 bar), the coating material is atomised. This high pressure has the effect of micro fine atomisation of the coating material.
As no air is used in this process, it is described as an AIRLESS process.
This method of spraying has the advantages of finest atomisation, cloudless operation and a smooth, bubble­free surface. As well as these, the advantages of the speed of work and convenience must be mentioned.
3.2 Functioning of the unit
In the following there is a short description of the techni­cal construction for better understanding of the function.
WAGNER ProSpray units are electrically driven high­pressure spraying units.
A gear unit transfers the driving force to a crankshaft. The crankshaft moves the pistons of the material feed pump up and down.
The inlet valve is opened automatically by the upwards movement of the piston. The outlet valve is opened when the piston moves downward.
The coating material flows under high pressur
e through the high-pressure hose to the spray gun. When the coat­ing material exits from the tip it atomizes.
The pressure regulator controls the volume and the oper­ating pressure of the coating material.

4. Fill in EasyGlide (Fig. 5). Do not fill in too much EasyGlide, i.e. ensure that no EasyGlide drips into the coating material container.
4.2 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 Y
ellow
When the pr
essur
e indicator is blinking yellow
, the sprayer is operating between 0 and 1.4 MPa. 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 relief valve between positions
It is safe to change or r
eplace the spray tip
If the pressure indicator begins blinking yellow when the pressure control knob is set at a higher pressure and the relief valve is in the SPRAY posi­tion, either the spray tip is wor
n or the sprayer is
in need of service/repair.

Solid Yellow
W
hen the pressure indicator is solid yellow, the sprayer is operating between 1.4 and 12 MPa. 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 t
he 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 r
equired (worn packings, worn piston, stuck valve,
etc...).
Solid Green
When the pressure indicator is solid green, the sprayer is operating between 12 and 23 MPa. 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
Service Indicator
The Service indicator is on when the motor is commanded to run. This indicator is used by service centers to troubleshoot motor problems.
