  Storage. Leave the pump filled with a 50/50 

mixture of mineral spirits and motor oil. 

CAUTION: Never leave water in the pump for 
more than about a day. Flush with mineral 
spirits. 

How to Flush

1.

  Place the suction tube/suction hose in a 

flushing bucket filled with clean flushing fluid: 
either mineral spirits (for oil-based materials), 
lacquer thinner (for lacquers), water (for 
water-based materials), or soapy water (for 
converting from oil-based to water-based 
materials). 

2.

  Separate the drain tube from the suction tube 

(if they are clipped together) and place it in an 
empty waste bucket. 

3.

Open the priming valve.

4.

  Ensure that the unit is turned off and the 

pressure control knob is at the minimum 
(anticlockwise ) setting. Plug the unit in.

5.

Turn the unit on.

6.

  Turn the pressure control knob clockwise to 

increase the pressure just enough to let the 
pump run.

7.

  Allow the pump to run and watch the fluid 

discharging from the drain tube. Allow the 
fluid to discharge until completely clean 
flushing fluid is coming out.  The hose and gun 
also need to be flushed when changing colors 
or when switching between different types of 
materials/paints: 

8.

  With the tip and tip guard removed from the 

gun, point the gun into the waste bucket and 
hold the trigger open. 

WARNING:  Risk  of  static  sparking,  fire  

or explosion   Hold the metal part of the 
gun firmly to  the side of a metal pail.  All  
solvent  pails  must  be  conductive metal 
material and properly grounded.  Do  not  
place  on  a  non  conductive  insulating 
surface unless a ground wire  is added to a 
true earth such as a metal  water pipe. 

9.

Close the priming valve.

10.

  Allow the pump to run and watch the fluid 

discharging from the gun. Allow the fluid to 
discharge until completely clean flushing fluid 
is coming out. 

WARNING: Do not release the gun trigger 
during this process. If you release the 
trigger, pressure will build in the line and 
when you re-squeeze the trigger there will 
be a splashback hazard.  

11.

  Then turn the unit off and turn the pressure 

control knob anticlockwise back to the 
minimum setting. Then unplug the unit.

The pump is now clean and ready to be 
primed with material.

PRIMING

This is a high pressure pump and all air and 
unwanted fluids must be bled out of the pump and 
lines before spraying can begin.
Ensure that the tip and tip guard are removed from 
the gun and the trigger is locked.

To prime

1.

Place the suction tube in the material bucket. 

2.

  Place the drain tube in a waste bucket and 

open the priming valve. 

3.

  Ensure that the pressure control knob is in the 

minimum position and the unit is switched off. 
Plug the unit in and turn it on.

4.

  Slowly turn the pressure control knob 

clockwise to increase the pressure just enough 
to let the pump run.

5.

  Allow the pump to run and watch the fluid 

discharging from the drain tube. Allow the
