Shutdown And Cleanup - Graco TexSpray Compact HP Instructions-Parts List Manual

NOTE: Keep the pump and hose clean when switching
between texture, knockdown, and orange peel
applications. A dirty pump can release a piece of
texture into the finish.
CAUTION
To keep the unit in good operating condition, always
clean it thoroughly and prepare it properly for
storage, even if only for the night. Pay particular
attention to these areas:
Keep the pump wet during non-use to help
prevent contaminants from drying inside the
pump.
Clean the sponge filter at least daily. A dirty filter
allows contaminates into the compressor and
eventually into the pump, resulting in poor
performance and damage.
Removing the material hose will allow the pump
to drain too rapidly; the material hose must
remain connected to keep the pump wet.
Oil the gun daily. See Fig. 15.
Oil the pump air inlet. See Maintenance in
texture pump instruction manual 309009.
