Supplied Components
Refer to Fig. 2.
WARNING
A red-handled bleed-type master air valve (E) and
a fluid drain valve (F) are supplied. These compo-
nents help reduce the risk of serious injury, includ-
ing fluid injection and splashing of fluid in the eyes
or on the skin, and injury from moving parts if you
are adjusting or repairing the pump.
The bleed-type master air valve relieves air trapped
between this valve and the pump after the valve is
closed. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly. Locate the valve close to the pump.
The fluid drain valve assists in relieving fluid pres-
sure in the displacement pump, hose, and gun.
Triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be
sufficient.
D The red-handled bleed-type master air valve (E)
is required in your system to relieve air trapped
between it and the air motor and gun when the
valve is closed (see the WARNING above). Do not
block access to the valve.
D The pump air regulator (G) controls pump speed
and outlet pressure by adjusting the air pressure to
the pump.
D The air relief valve (15) opens automatically to
prevent overpressurization of the pump.

Setup
D The gun air regulator (J) adjusts the air pressure
to the air-assisted spray gun (106).
D The air inlet swivel (H) connects incoming air to
the pump and to the gun.
D The strainer (42) keeps large particles from enter-
ing the pump.
D The fluid filter (13) includes a 60 mesh (250
micron) stainless steel element to filter particles
from the fluid as it leaves the pump. It also includes
the fluid drain valve (F), which is required in your
system to relieve fluid pressure in the hose and gun
(see the WARNING at left).
D The agitator (39), included on Models 232443,
232455, 232461, 232467, and 232473 only, keeps
the fluid in suspension.
D The air-assisted spray gun (106) dispenses the
fluid. The gun houses the spray tip (107), which is
available in a wide range of sizes for different spray
patterns and rates of flow.
D The twin hose (101) includes a gun air supply
hose (101a) and a gun fluid supply hose (101b).
The fluid whip hose (103) allows greater gun
maneuverability.
D The gun filter/swivel (104) provides a final filtering
of fluid before it enters the gun, and allows greater
gun maneuverability.
D The fluid pressure regulator (201), included on
15:1 Monarks only, allows more precise adjustment
of the fluid pressure at the gun.
