Cleanup
Overnight Storage
Shutdown
1. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the
minimum setting.
2. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve to PRIME to release
system pressure.
3. Trigger the gun to remove any pressure that may still be in
the hose.
4. Lock the trigger by rotating the trigger
lock forward until it stops.
5. Move the motor ON/OFF switch to
OFF and unplug the sprayer.
6. For latex materials only, pour 1/2 cup
water slowly on the top of the paint to
prevent the paint from drying. For
other materials, seal the material
container or paint hopper (with the
hopper cover) keeping the return tube
in the material.
7. Wrap the spray gun assembly in a damp cloth and place it
in a plastic bag. Seal the bag shut.
8. Place the sprayer in a safe place out of the sun for short-
term storage.
Startup
1. Remove the gun from the plastic bag.
2. Stir the water into the paint for latex materials. Remove
the cover from the paint hopper or material container and
stir the paint for all other materials.
3. Check to be sure that the PRIME/SPRAY valve is set to
PRIME and that the pressure is completely reduced.
4. Plug sprayer in and Move the motor ON/OFF switch to
ON.
5. After the sprayer is primed, turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve
to SPRAY and gradually turn the pressure control knob
clockwise to increase the pressure.
6. Test the sprayer on a practice piece and begin spraying.

Long-Term Storage
Do not allow material to build up on the motor or the
motor will overheat. Do not allow flammable solvents to
come in contact with the motor or they could ignite.
Do not use mineral spirits or paint thinner on latex paint,
or the mixture will turn into a jelly-like substance which is
difficult to remove.
Clearing the Paint Hopper
Use the following procedure to clear the material out of the
paint hopper of a hopper unit.
1. Lock the gun trigger by rotating the
trigger lock forward until it stops.
2. Turn the pressure control knob
counterclockwise to the minimum
setting.
3. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve to
PRIME.
4. Move the motor ON/OFF switch to
OFF.
5. Direct the return tube into the original
material container.
6. Move the motor ON/OFF switch to ON.
7. Turn the pressure control knob to 1/2 maximum pressure.
This will draw the remaining material in the paint hopper
through the pump, up the return tube, and into the
material container.
8. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the
minimum pressure setting.
9. Trigger the gun to relieve pressure and lock the gun.
10. Remove the spray tip and guard and place them into a
container of water or appropriate solvent for the type of
material with which you are painting.
11. Fill the paint hopper with water or an appropriate solvent
for the type of material with which you are painting.
12. Direct the return tube into a waste bucket.
13. Increase the pressure to 1/2 the maximum pressure. Let the
water or solvent circulate for 2-3 minutes to flush material
out of the pump, the paint hopper, and the return tube.
Clearing the Suction Set
Use the following procedure to clear the material out of the
suction tube of a suction set unit.
1. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the
minimum setting.
2. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve to PRIME.
3. Move the motor ON/OFF switch to OFF.
4. Wait a couple seconds, then trigger
the gun into the material container to
release built up fluid pressure from the
pump.
5. Lock the gun trigger by rotating the
trigger lock forward until it stops.
6. Remove the suction hose from the
material and hold it above a bucket of
water or solvent. Leave the return
hose in the material container.
7. Move the motor ON/OFF switch to ON.
8. Turn the pressure control knob to 1/2 maximum pressure.
This will draw the remaining material in the suction tube
through the pump, down the return hose and into the
material container.
