1. Lay the unit back on its handle so that the inlet valve
is facing up. Fill the inlet valve with water or with a
light household oil.
2. Make certain that the PRIME/SPRAY knob is set to
PRIME ( ) and that the pressure control knob is
turned counterclockwise to the lowest pressure
setting.
3. Turn the motor switch to ON.
4. Increase the pressure by turning the pressure
control knob clockwise 1/2 turn.
5. Force the inlet valve to open and close by pushing
on it with a screwdriver or the eraser end of a
pencil. It should move up and down about 1/16 of
an inch. Continue until water or oil is sucked into
the sprayer. This will wet the moving parts and
break loose any old paint residue.

pressure control knob clockwise to its maximum
setting. You should feel suction coming from the
inlet valve. If you do not, see the section on clean-
ing and servicing the outlet valve.
7. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to
the minimum pressure setting.
8. Turn the motor switch to OFF.
9. Return the unit to an upright position.
1. Attach the suction tube to the inlet valve and tighten
firmly by hand. Be sure that the threads are straight
so that the fitting turns freely.
2. Place the suction tube and the return tube into the
paint.
3. Hang the paint bucket onto the pail bracket.
