Required tools: crescent wrench and screwdriver
1. compressor Requirements:
Consult the Technical Specifications on each model for
the approximate air requirements.
NOTE: The requirements will vary on each model.
Proper grounding in important. This applies to
gas, electric and air powered models. The passage
of some materials through the nylon hose will build
up a static electric charge, which if discharged,
could ignite solvent vapors present and create an
explosion.
2. Grounding the pump:
Be sure the Commander™ system is grounded. All Titan
units are equipped with a grounding lug. A Grounding
Clamp, Part No. 101-208 and Ground Wire, Part No.
101-212 should be used to connect the unit to a true earth
ground. These accessories can be ordered from your
local distributor.
a.
Loosen the Grounding Screw.
b.
Insert one end of the Grounding Wire into the slot in the
Grounding Lug. Tighten the screw.
c.
Connect the other end of the Grounding Wire to a true
earth ground. Check local electrical regulations for
detailed grounding instructions.
3. ventilation:
Areas must be well ventilated to prevent hazardous
operation with volatile solvents or exhaust fumes.
4. connecting compressor to the sprayer:
Tighten the air hose wrench tight. The air hose has
factory installed Teflon ape on the male end of the hose.
See figure below.
5. connecting the paint hoses:
The siphon hose and the bleed line hose have factory
installed Teflon tape on the male end of the hoses.
Tigthen the siphon hose and bleed line wrench tight.
6. One Gun Operation:
Attach the gun and hose. Always use a spray hose at
least 50 feet long. Do not use Teflon or thread sealant on
this assembly. Do not install the spray tip.
7. Multiple Gun Operation:
For models equipped with a second gun outlet, remove
the plug from the outlet and connect a second hose and
gun to the outlet.
Multigun manifolds with shut-off valves can be used when
more than two guns are needed. Never use this second
gun outlet for a one-gun operation.
For guns without a second gun outlet, connect a multi-
gun manifold at the single gun outlet. These manifolds
are either 2, 3, or 4 gun manifolds with shut-off valves.
Connect a hose and gun to each outlet.
8. Fill the Wet-Cup 1/2 full with Titan’s
Lubrisolv
, supplied
by the factory. This extends packing life.
9. Strain all paints with Titan’s 5 gallon Nylon strainer, Part
No. 160-500 or 1 gallon Nylon strainer, Part No. 160-
100 to assure trouble-free operation and freedom from
frequent cleaning of inlet screen and gun strainer.
