NOTE: Numbers and letters in parentheses in the text
correspond to the reference numbers and letters
in the drawings and parts list.
WARNING
Be sure your system has a bleed-type master air
valve (pneumatic pumps only) and a fluid drain
valve. These two accessories help reduce the risk
of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection,
splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or injury from
moving parts, if you are adjusting or repairing the
pump or gun.
1. The bleed-type master air valve relieves air
trapped between this valve and the pump after
the air regulator is shut off. Trapped air can
cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly.
2. The fluid drain valve assists in relieving fluid
pressure in the displacement pump, hose and
gun; triggering the gun to relieve pressure may
not be sufficient.

1. Guide a grounded fluid hose (A) through the hose
guard (8), and connect the hose to the gun inlet
adapter (13).
2. With no tip installed, start the pump or sprayer. Flush
it according to the instructions supplied with it.
3. Strain the fluid you are spraying if it has particles that
could clog the spray tip. Prime the system with the
fluid you are spraying.
4. Relieve pressure. See the procedure on page 2.
5. Be sure the gun safety latch is engaged. See Fig 2.
Then install the tip and tip guard.
If you are using a Reverse-A-Clean IV DripLess
Tip Guard and SwitchTip , refer to manual
307–848, supplied, for detailed instructions.
If you are using a flat tip and tip guard, place the tip
and then the gasket (17) in the tip guard (16) and
screw the assembly tightly onto the gun nozzle.
