Never put your fingers, hands or any other parts of the body into the
spray jet!
Never point the spray gun at yourself, other persons or animals.
Never use the spray gun without safety guard.
Do not treat a spraying injury as a harmless cut. In case of injury to
the skin through coating materials or solvents, consult a doctor
immediately for quick and expert treatment. Inform the doctor
about the coating material or solvent used.
The operating instructions state that the following points must
always be observed before starting up:
1. Faulty units must not be used.
2. Secure WAGNER spray gun using the safety catch on the
trigger.
3. Ensure that the unit is properly earthed. The connection
must take place through a correctly earthed two-pole and earth
socket outlet.
4. Check allowable operating pressure of high-pressure hose and
spray gun.
5. Check all connections for leaks.
The instructions regarding regular cleaning and maintenance of the
unit must be strictly observed.
Before any work is done on the unit or for every break in work the
following rules must be observed:
1. Release the pressure from spray gun and hose.
2. Secure the WAGNER spray gun using the safety catch
on the trigger.
3. Switch off unit.
Attention: Danger of injury by injection!

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.
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 MΩ.
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.
Pay attention to the Airless quality of the
coating materials to be processed.
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.
