How to Use

How to Use (cont.)

WARNINGS:

• Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. 

• Provide exhaust and fresh air introduction to avoid accumulation of flammable 

   vapors.

• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric sparks, open flames, pilot 

   lights, electrical appliances and hot objects. Connecting or disconnecting 
   power cords or working light switches can make sparks. The sprayer 
   contains arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.
• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose the spray area. 

   DO NOT use plastic drop cloths when spraying flammable materials.

• Avoid physical contact with grounded surfaces like pipes, heating elements,     
   stoves and refrigerators. 
• DO NOT smoke in spray area.

• A working fire extinguisher must be kept near the spray area.

• Follow the material and solution manufacturer warnings and instructions.

• DO NOT use materials or solutions with a flashpoint below 70°F (21°C). 

• DO NOT use materials or solutions containing bleach or chlorine.
• Contact your material or solution supplier about compatibility with aluminum.
• DO NOT use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as bleach, mildewcide, 

   methylene chloride and 1,1,1--trichloroethane. (They are not compatible with 
   aluminum.)

• Paints, solvents, insecticides and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or 
   if they come in contact with the body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, 
   fainting or poisoning:
 

 a. Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be inhaled. Read all 

                  instructions supplied with the mask to be sure it will provide the
                  necessary protection.
 

 b. Wear protective eyewear.

 c. Wear protective clothing as required by material or solution 

                  manufacturer.
• Keep the sprayer away from rain and moisture. 
• DO NOT carry the tool by the cord or plug. 
• Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving tool parts. 
   

ASSEMBLY

1. Turn both locking knobs to UNLOCK and insert the sprayer and nozzle assembly 

    into place in the housing.
2. Turn both knobs to LOCK to hold the pieces in place.

3. By aligning the suction tube (within the container), you will not have to refill 

    the container as often:
 

a. If spraying in a downward direction, the angled end of the suction tube 

                 should be pointing toward the front of the sprayer. 
 

b. If spraying in an upward direction, the angled end of the suction tube 

                 should be pointing toward the rear of the sprayer. 

MATERIAL OR SOLUTION PREPARATION

1. Before spraying, the material or solution to be sprayed may need to be thinned 

   with the proper solvent as specified by the material or solution manufacturer. 

a. Stir the material or solution thoroughly before measuring viscosity.

b. Dip the viscosity test cup completely into the material or solution.

c. Hold the test cup up and measure the time in seconds until the liquid 

                 empties out. This time is referred to as “runout time.”
