Clean up
C A U T I O N
As with any type of sprayer, this unit will not function
satisfactorily if the unit is not clean. If the product being
sprayed is intended to cure or set up after application, the
Sprayer must be cleaned and flushed after EACH use by
using the appropriate fluids as recommended by the
chemical/ compound manufacturer. Pump the cleaning
agent through the sprayer until all traces of the previously
sprayed material has been removed from the unit. Failure
to clean the unit after using these types of materials will
result in failure of the unit and loss of warranty coverage.
DO NOT USE THE PUMP TO PURGE THE SPRAY
HOSE. Running the Pump dry over 1 minute will destroy
the gears and void the warranty. Disconnect the Hose on
each end and drain manually using gravity.
Chemical Compatibility
The magnetically coupled gear pump has no seals or
gaskets in the fluid path and therefore will not leak. The
only material coming in contact with the fluid being sprayed
is 316 Stainless Steel, Ceramic and PEEK
(Polyetheretherketone) Gears.
The only solvents which will attack PEEK are concentrated
nitric acid and sulphuric acids.
C A U T I O N
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT THE
MATERIAL YOU ARE SPRAYING IS COMPATIBLE
WITH THE PUMPS COMPONENTS.

Attempting to spray liquids below the manufactures
recommended temperatures may affect the sprayers
ability to adequately perform. Low temperatures
may affect your materials viscosity.
Do not submerge or expose to excessive moisture
Do not spray liquids with high solids (0ver 35%) or
abrasive additives as this will destroy the pumps
gears and will void the warranty. This Sprayer is
intended for and was tested with Chemicals used for
curing and sealing applications. If you are unsure of
