Airless paint sprayers are capable of
spraying a wide variety of latex, oil-
based, and alkyd paints, as well as
stains, preservatives and other non-
abrasive finishes. Sprayers are also pow-
erful and versatile enough to be used
with a variety of options (roller attach-

General Safety Information
1. To reduce the risk of fire
or explosion, electrical
shock, and injury to per-
sons, read and understand
all instructions included
with this product. Be familiar with
the controls and the proper use of
the equipment.
2. This product should be grounded.
Follow all grounding instructions
included with your sprayer (pump).
To reduce risk of fire or
explosion:
1. Do not spray flammable or com-
bustible materials near an open
flame or sources of ignition such as
cigarettes, motors, and electrical
equipment.
2. Paint or solvent flowing through the
equipment is able to result in static
electricity. Static electricity creates a
risk of fire or explosion in the pres-
ence of paint or solvent fumes. All
parts of the spray system, including
the pump, hose assembly, spray gun,
and objects in and around the spray
area shall be properly grounded to
protect against static discharge and
sparks. Use only conductive or ground-
ed high-pressure airless paint sprayer
hoses specified by the manufacturer.
3. Verify that all containers and collec-
tion systems are grounded to pre-
vent static discharge.
4. Connect your sprayer to a grounded
outlet and use grounded extension
cords. Do not use a 3 prong to 2
prong adapter.
5. Do not use paints or solvents con-
taining halogenated hydrocarbons
such as methyl bromine, carbon
tetrachloride, and ethyl iodine.
6. Keep spray area well ventilated.
Keep a good supply of fresh air
moving through the spray area.
7. Do not smoke or eat in the spray
area.
8. Do not operate light switches,
engines, or similar spark producing
products in the spray area.
9. Keep area clean and free of paint or
solvent containers, rags, and other
flammable materials.
10. Know the contents of the paints
and solvents being sprayed. Read all
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
and container labels provided with
the paints and solvents. Follow the
paint and solvent manufacturer’s
safety instructions.
11. Do not use materials with a flash
point less than 20°C (70°F) in or to
clean this equipment. (Examples of
acceptable cleaning solvents are:
water, mineral spirits, lacquer thin-
ner, Xylene and high flash naphtha.
A PARTIAL example list of unaccept-
able cleaning solvents are low flash
naphtha, mek, acetone, alcohol,
toluene and fuels of any kind.
12. Have fire extinguisher equipment
present and working.
To reduce the risk of
skin injection:
1. Do not aim the gun
at, or spray, any per-
son or animal.
2. Keep hands and other body parts
away from the discharge. For exam-
ple, do not try to stop leaks with
any part of the body.
3. Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do
not spray without nozzle tip guard
in place.
4. Do not remove tip while cleaning
the pump.
5. Only use a nozzle tip specified by
the manufacturer.
6. Use caution when cleaning and
changing nozzle tips. Before remov-
ing the nozzle tip, follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions for turning off
the unit and relieving the pressure.
7. Do not leave the unit energized or
under pressure while unattended.
When not in use turn off the unit
and relieve the pressure in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
8. High pressure spray is able to inject
toxins into the body and cause seri-
ous bodily injury. In the event that
injection occurs, seek medical atten-
tion immediately.
9. Check parts for signs of damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
10. This spray gun is rated for 3000 psi
(205 bar). Do not use on systems
designed to produce more than
3000 psi (205 bar).
11. Always engage the trigger lock
when not spraying. Verify the trig-
ger lock is functioning properly.
• To lock (engage): rotate tabs on
lock to horizontal position.
• To unlock (disengage) to spray:
