Common Procedures

Installing Spray Tips

Two spray tips are available for use with this
sprayer. The black tip produces a 12-inch
wide spray pattern. The gray tip produces a
4-inch wide spray pattern.
Either spray tip may be used to spray
materials that are recommended to be
strayed with a 0.015 tip size. See material
container for spray tip size
recommendations.

Remove Spray Tip

1.

Perform 

Pressure Relief Procedure

page 16

.

2.

Rotate the spray tip 90 degrees from 
either the SPRAY or UNCLOG position.

3.

Pull the spray tip straight out of the spray 
tip guard.

Install Spray Tip

1.

While holding the spray tip 90 degrees 
from either the SPRAY or UNCLOG 
position, align spray tip locking tab with 
the locking tab slot in the spray tip guard.

2.

Push the spray tip all the way into the 
spray tip guard.

3.

Rotate the spray tip to the SPRAY 
position.

NOTE: 

Make certain spray tip locking tab is 

pushed all the way into the slot in the spray tip 
guard. You should not be able to remove the 
spray tip from the spray tip guard when it is in 
the Spray or Unclog positions.

NOTE: 

If the locking tab slot in the spray tip 

guard is blocked, preventing installation of 
the spray tip, rotate the spray tip guard until it 
is visually aligned with the internal hole, then 
install the spray tip.

Spray tips wear with use and abrasive 
paint and need periodic replacement.

If the spray pattern is poor, you may have 
a worn spray tip. Replace spray tip. See 

Spray Pattern Diagnostics

, page 30.

Do not put your hand in front of the spray 
tip.

NOTICE

Spray tips must be cleaned or stored in 
appropriate cleaning fluid (water or Pump 
Armor) immediately after use to ensure
