WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually
relieved to prevent the system from
starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid
under high pressure can be injected through the
skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of
an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving
parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
whenever you:
are instructed to relieve the pressure,
stop spraying,
check or service any of the system equipment,
or install or clean the spray tip.
Pressure Relief Procedure
1. Engage the gun safety latch.
2. Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Unplug the power supply cord.
4. Disengage the gun safety latch. Hold a metal part
of the gun firmly to a grounded metal pail. Trigger
the gun to relieve pressure.
5. Engage the gun safety latch.
6. Open the pressure drain valve. Leave the pressure
drain valve open until you are ready to spray
again.
If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely
clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved
after following the steps above , VERY SLOWLY loos-
en the tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to
relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely.
Now clear the tip or hose obstruction.
Startup Procedure
Use this procedure each time you start the sprayer to
help ensure the sprayer is ready to operate and that
you start it safely.
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
whenever you are instructed to relieve

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of static sparking and
splashing when flushing, always remove
the spray tip from the gun and hold a
metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a
grounded metal pail.
4. Prime the pump.

clockwise until the sprayer starts. When
comes from the drain hose, close the valve (han-
dle in forward position).
b. Disengage the gun safety latch. See Fig. 4.
Following the warning, above, trigger the gun
