THIS UNIT IS PROVIDED WITH A THERMALLY PROTECTED AUTOMATIC RESET. IF AN OVERLOAD
OCCURS THE THERMALLY PROTECTED AUTOMATIC RESET DISCONNECTS THE MOTOR FROM THE
POWER SUPPLY.
•Motor will restart without warning when protector automatically resets.
•Always disconnect motor from power supply before working on equipment.
•When thermally protected automatic reset disconnects the motor from the power supply, relieve pressure by
turning priming valve to “prime” .
•Turn ON-OFF switch to OFF.
CAUTION: THE CAUSE OF THE OVERLOAD SHOULD BE CORRECTED BEFORE RESTARTING.
CAUTION
Be sure to read, understand and observe all safety
precautions and warnings. See pages 3 thru 6.

This manual contains information which must be read and understood before using the equipment. When you come to an
area which has one of the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain to heed the safeguard.
WARNING
Important safety information indicates a hazard which may cause serious injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Important information that tells how to prevent damage to equipment or how to avoid causes of minor injuries.
Note: Gives important information which should be given special attention.
IMPORTANT
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure it is of the three-conductor type with NEMA connectors so a continuous grounding circuit is
provided from tool to power circuit receptacle. Also, be sure that the conductor size is large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop
which will cause loss of power. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found below.
For nameplate ampere ratings which are between those given, use the extension cord recommended for the NEXT HIGHER ampere
rating.
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 it is acceptable for outdoor use.

Injection Injury - A high pressure stream of paint pro-
duced by this equipment can pierce the skin and
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation.
PREVENTION
• Maximum operating range of the gun - 3000 PSI fluid
pressure.
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to come in contact
with the fluid stream. DO NOT come in contact with a
fluid stream created by a leak in the fluid hose.
• NEVER put hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not
provide protection against an injection injury.
• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut fluid pump off and
release all pressure before servicing, cleaning tip guard,
changing tips, or leaving unattended. Simply turning off
the electrical power will not release pressure in the
system. The Prime Spray Valve must be turned to the
position to relieve the pressure.
• ALWAYS have the tip guard in place while spraying. The
tip guard provides some protection against injection
injuries but is mainly a warning device.
DO NOT TREAT AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injectioncan lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin
is a traumatic injury. It is important to treat the
injury surgically 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.
ALWAYS remove spray tip before flushing or cleaning
•
the system.
• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, abuse,
etc. A leak is capable of injecting material into the skin.
The paint hose should be inspected before each use.
• NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger
lock or trigger guard in place and in working order.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 3000 P.S.I.
(Includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose).
• In case of skin injection see physician immediately.

WARNING
HAZARDPREVENTION
Explosion or fire - Solvent and paint fumes can explode or
ignite causing property damage and/or severe injury.
• Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks
open flames such as pilot lights, hot objects such as
cigarettes, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords and working light switches.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in
working order.
• Keep the pump away from spray area to avoid solvent
and paint fumes. The pump contains arcing parts which
emit sparks.
• High velocity flow of material through equipment may
develop static electricity. The equipment being used,
and objects in and around the spray area, must be
properly grounded to prevent static discharge and sparks.
• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid
hoses for airless applications. Be sure that gun is
grounded through hose connections.
• Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's safety
precautions and warnings.
• WHEN FLUSHING EQUIPMENT use lowest possible
pressure.

WARNING
HAZARD
Explosion hazard incompatible materials - May cause
property damage or severe injury.
Hazardous vapors - Paints, solvents, insecticides, and
other materials may be harmful if inhaled causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
PREVENTION
• Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene
chloride and 1,1,1 - Trichlorethane are not compatible
with aluminum and may cause an explosion. If unsure of
a material’s compatibility with aluminum, contact your
coatings supplier.
• Some spray guns and accessories cannot be used with
halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. Be certain of compatibility before use with halogenated hydrocarbon solvents.
• The SprayTECH ED1150 pump is not compatible for
use with halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. The
SprayTECH G-05, G-09, and G-10 guns must NOT be
used with halogenated hydrocarbon solvents.
• 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.
General - May cause property damage or severe injury.
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before
operating.
• Comply with all appropriate local, state and national
codes governing ventilation, fire prevention and
operation.
• The United States Government Safety Standards have
been adopted under Occupational Safety and Health
Act. These standards, particularly the General Standards, Part 1910 and construction Standard, Part 1926,
should be consulted.
• This high pressure airless pump is designed to be used
with authorized SprayTECH parts only. When using this
pump with parts that do not comply with the minimum
specifications and safety devices of the pump 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, replace the
hose immediately. Never repair a paint hose. Replace it
with another grounded hose.
• All hoses, swivels, guns, and accessories used with this
unit must be pressure rated at or above 3000 PSI.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Be sure to read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION on pages 3 thru 6 before using this sprayer.
Your SprayTECH sprayer is a powerful, easy to operate
and easy to service machine. Since it operates on the
airless principle, no air compressor is needed.
Power is supplied by a 3/4 horsepower, TEFC electric
motor. The flow rate is 0 to .50 gallons a minute. The
pressure is adjustable from 0 to 3000 pounds per square
inch.
COMPONENT FUNCTIONS
See Figure 1 for component locations.
Power for the sprayer is supplied by a 3/4 horsepower,
TEFC electric motor (see Figure 1). It is located at the rear
of the sprayer and is connected to the hydraulic pump. The
motor is furnished with a 3-wire electric cord. The third wire
(ground) should never be cut off. Any extension cords used
must also be 3-wire and 3-wire plug that will plug into a 3wire grounded electrical outlet. Do not use 2-wire extension
cords. Shorter extension cords will assure maximum
electrical power for proper operation, use more paint hose,
not more extension cords. Refer to page 3 for extension
cord selection.
Cords and extension cords should be protected from
vehicle traffic and sharp cutting edges or objects. Any worn
or damaged cords should be replaced promptly.
The motor has an automatic overload protective switch.
This switch disconnects the motor from electrical supply if
overload occurs. The motor can be started again after 5
minutes. The cause of the overload should be corrected
before restarting.
The motor should always be kept clean and dry. Paint acts
as an insulator. Therefore, too much paint on the motor will
cause it to overheat.
ON-OFF SWITCH
The ON-OFF switch is located on the side of the electric
motor (see Figure 1).
