come out of the return hose.
Use only enough pressure to
keep the fluid coming out.
9. Allow the sprayer to run for
15–30 seconds to flush the test fluid out through the
return hose and into the waste container.
10. Turn the pressure control knob fully counterclockwise to
its lowest setting.
11.Turn off the sprayer by moving the pump ON/OFF switch
to the OFF position.
Preparing to Paint
Before painting, it is important to make sure that the fluid in the
system is compatible with the paint that is going to be used.
Always keep the trigger lock on the spray gun in the
locked position while preparing the system.
1. Place the siphon tube into a container of the appropriate
solvent for the material being sprayed (refer to
recommendations of the material manufacturer). An
example of the appropriate solvent is water for latex paint.
2. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
3. Turn the pressure control knob fully counterclockwise to
its lowest pressure setting.
4. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve to the PRIME position.
5. Move the engine ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
6. Start the engine:
a. Open the fuel valve lever.
b. Move the throttle lever away from the gas tank.
c. Close the engine choke lever.
d. Holding the frame with one hand, pull the starter rope
rapidly and firmly. Continue to hold the rope as you let it
return. Pull and return the rope until the engine starts.
7. Turn on the sprayer by moving the pump ON/OFF switch
to the ON position.
8. Slowly turn the pressure control knob clockwise to
increase the pressure until fluid starts to come out of the
return hose. Use only enough pressure to keep the fluid
coming out.
9. Allow the sprayer to run for 15–30 seconds to flush the old
solvent out through the return hose and into the metal
waste container.
10. Turn the pressure control knob fully counterclockwise to
its lowest setting.
11.Turn off the sprayer by moving the pump ON/OFF switch
to the OFF position.
NOTE: Incompatible fluids and paint may cause the
valves to become stuck closed, which would
require disassembly and cleaning of the
sprayer’s fluid section.

15. Unlock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
Ground the gun by holding it against the
edge of the metal container while flushing.
Failure to do so may lead to a static
electric discharge, which may cause a fire.
16. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until the old
solvent is gone and fresh solvent is coming out of the gun.
17. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
18. Set down the gun and increase the pressure by turning the
pressure control knob slowly clockwise to its highest setting.
19. Check the entire system for leaks. If leaks occur, turn the
sprayer off and follow the “Pressure Relief Procedure” in
this manual before tightening any fittings or hoses.
20. Follow the “Pressure Relief Procedure” in this manual
before changing from solvent to paint.
Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure when
shutting the unit down for any purpose, including
servicing or adjusting any part of the spray system,
changing or cleaning spray tips, or preparing for cleanup.
