Pressure Relief
Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when-
ever you see this symbol.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure
Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.
1. Set START/STOP switch (ST) to STOP.
2. Push in SECURE DISABLE (SD) switch.
3. Open the back pressure regulator and all fluid drain
valves in the system, having a waste container
ready to catch drainage. Leave open until you are
ready to pressurize system again.
4. Check that pressure gauges on fluid supply and
return lines read zero. If gauges do not read zero,
determine cause and carefully relieve pressure by
VERY SLOWLY loosening a fitting. Clear obstruc-
tion before pressurizing system again.
