following filters.
Both pump filters; see your lower manual for
instructions.
Spray gun handle filter; see your spray gun manual.

Change the Mix Ratio

In order to change the mix ratio, one or both high
pressure displacement pumps need to be replaced, the
air motor needs to be re-positioned, and the over
pressure relief valves may need to be changed.
1. Check the Parts Varying by Pump Package table
on page 81 for the correct pump sizes.
2. Remove and replace pump. See Remove
Displacement Pump page 48.
3. Adjust the position of the air motor. See Motor
Position page 25.
4. If changing from one type of XP system to
another (for example - changing from XP50 to
XP70 or from XP70 to XP50): Remove the existing
over pressure relief valves (302) and install the
correct valves for the new system type. See
Replace Over Pressure Relief Valves on page 51.
5. Change the air pressure relief valve (CG) as
required, depending on the ratio.
