Important Safety Information

Read all safety information before operating the equipment. Save these instructions.

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

To reduce the risks of re or explosion, electrical shock and the injury to persons, read and understand all instructions included in this manual. Be familiar with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.

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 ammable vapors.

• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks, open ames, 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 ashpoint below 100° F (38° C). A uid’s ashpoint is the temperature at which vapors from the uid could ignite if exposed to a ame or spark. Consult your paint supplier for information about a uid’s ashpoint.

• 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.

PREVENTION:

• 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

May cause property damage or severe injury.

PREVENTION:

• Read all instructions and safety precautions before operating any equipment. Never leave the unit running while unattended. Unplug whenever not in use.

• Never immerse the unit into any liquid.

• Comply with all appropriate local, state and national codes governing ventilation, re prevention, and operation.

• 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 specications 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.

Note: Additional warnings are contained on the tag molded to the electrical cord of the unit. Be sure to read this tag before operating the unit.

Important Safety Information

Grounded Outlet

Tab for Grounding Screw

Metal Screw

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 qualied 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 qualied 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 gure 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 qualied 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 sux W-A following the cord type designation. For example, SJTW-A to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

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.

IMPORTANT: 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.

Specications

Flow rate: up to 8 - 20 uid oz. per minute (ow rate

will depend on thickness of paint)

Power source: 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 ash point below 100° F (38°C).

Break Periods

During break periods, the handle assembly should be placed at with the roller sitting on a clean piece of cardboard or on top of the container.

• During break periods, make sure that the roller is not saturated with paint, or it will drip and accumulate.

• Avoid leaving the roller exposed to the sun or excessive heat during break periods.

• During extended break periods (more than 1/2 hour) wrap the roller in a plastic bag to keep it from drying out. Place it away from any heat sources and out of the sun.

When the handle button is pressed and released, the pump motor will turn on and material will begin owing into the paint hose.

To shut the motor o and stop the ow of material, press and release the handle button again.

Note: Make sure to fully press and release the handle button. If the handle button is only partially pressed, the motor will start, but will shut down again after the button is released.

English

Practice / Usage

Prepping the Room

Remove all pictures, mirrors, and decorations from the walls and draperies from the windows. Remove all nails, hardware and switch and receptacle covers. Cover furniture and oor with drop cloths.

Surface Preparation

• Always remove wallpaper before painting. Wash o old adhesive and rinse with water. Allow the walls to dry before painting.

• Wash and rinse dirt, grease and oil build-up o the walls with soap and water.

• Fill all nail holes, joints and cracks with patching paste. Let dry and sand the surface until smooth. Clean sanded area with a damp cloth.

• Spot prime all patched areas and any marker and/or pen marks before applying rst coat.

Tip: Write the important information from your paint can - color, formula, brand and paint type - on the back of a switch plate for future reference.

Painting the Room

Tip: If you need more than one gallon of paint to do the room’s walls, mix them together to ensure color uniformity.

• Always make sure to open a window or door to ensure proper ventilation.

• If you are painting both the ceiling and walls in your room, start with the ceiling rst and then move to the walls.

Ceilings:

• Paint across the short width of the ceiling.

Walls:

• Paint one wall at a time.

• Pick an area to start where you can saturate the roller cover and evenly distribute the paint. Working in three-foot sections, begin by cutting-in around windows, doors, cabinets, base and other breaks in the wall surface.

• Press and release the handle button until paint appears through the roller cover.

• Start painting at one end of a wall and roll out the letter “W”. Fill it in with crosswise strokes, working your way across the wall in 3’ x 3’ sections. Finish the sections by painting one solid swipe from ceiling to oor. This will give you a nice even paint nish.

• Press and release the handle button as needed for more paint. Be careful not to over-saturate the roller cover as it may drip, slide on the wall or spatter.

• Make sure to run the roller cover over the areas you cut-in around the trim and baseboards to even out the texture.

• If you need to stop and take a break; nish painting the entire wall, or stop at a break in the wall such as a doorway or corner to prevent lap marks.

English
