Operating the High Pressure Spray Gun
The gun is designed for pressures up to 3000 PSI, 207 bar.
POSSIBLE INjEcTION HAZARD - Do not spray without the tip
assembly in place. Never trigger the gun unless the tip is in
either the spray or the unclog position. Always lock the trigger
off when attaching the spray tip or when the spray gun is not in
use.
Locking the Spray Gun
The gun is secured when the trigger lock is at a 90º angle (perpendicular) to the
trigger in either direction.
Attaching the Tip Assembly
1. Thread the spray guard assembly onto the gun. Tighten by hand.
unclogging the Spray Tip
Do not attempt to unclog or clean the tip with your finger. Do
not use a needle or other sharp pointed instrument to clean the
tip. The hard tungsten carbide is brittle and can be chipped.
The spray gun is equipped with a reversible tip which allows you to blow out
any particles of old paint or other contaminants that may obstruct the paint
flow through the tip. If the spray pattern becomes distorted or stops completely
while the gun is triggered, follow these steps:
1. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure (see sprayer instruction manual)
2. Rotate spray tip 180 degrees from its current position.
3. Unlock the gun and squeeze the trigger, pointing the gun at a scrap
piece of wood or cardboard. This allows pressure in the spray hose to
blow out the obstruction. When the nozzle is clear, paint will come out
in a straight, high pressure stream.
4. Release the trigger and lock the gun off.
5. Rotate spray tip forward to one of the SPRAY positions.
6. Unlock the gun and resume spraying.

cleaning the Gun
ImPORTANT: If spraying with latex paint, use warm soapy water for
cleaning. If using oil or alkyd-based paints, use mineral spirits or paint
thinner. Refer to the paint manufacturer's instructions for specific
recomendations.
Do not use mineral spirits or paint thinner on latex paint, or the mixture will
turn into a jellylike substance which is difficult to remove.
1. Check that the spray tip assembly has been removed from the gun.
2. Run the appropriate solvent through the
pump.
3. Hold the metal part of the gun against a metal
container to ground the gun.
4. Trigger the gun into the container until it is
flushed clean. Use the lowest possible pressure.
cleaning the Filter
This filter must be cleaned every time you use your sprayer. When using thicker
paints, the filter might need to be cleaned more often.
1. Unclip the trigger guard from the filter housing by pulling outward from
the filter housing. Unscrew the housing.

3. Inspect the filter for holes (see Hole picture, above). Replace if holes are
found.
ImPORTANT: Never poke the filter with a sharp instrument!
4. Replace the cleaned filter, tapered end first, into the gun housing.
5. Replace the housing and spring and snap the trigger guard back into the
