Preparing to Paint
Before painting, it is important to make sure that the fluid in the
system is compatible with the paint that is going to be used.
NOTE: Incompatible fluids and paint may cause the
valves to become stuck closed, which would
require disassembly and cleaning of the
sprayer's fluid section.
IMPORTANT: Always keep the trigger lock on the spray
gun in the locked position while preparing the system.
1. Place the siphon tube into a container of the appropriate
solvent. Examples of the appropriate solvent are water for
latex paint or mineral spirits for oil-based paints.
2. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
3. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME
position.
4. Turn the unit on and set the pressure to
minimum by turning the pressure control
knob to the "Min PSI" setting in the yellow
zone.
5. Allow the sprayer to run for 15–30 seconds
to flush the old solvent out through the
return hose and into the metal waste container.
6. Turn the unit off by moving the pressure control knob to
the OFF position in the black zone.
NOTE: Make sure that the spray gun does not have a
tip or tip guard installed.
7. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to the SPRAY position.
8. Turn the unit on and set the pressure to minimum by
turning the pressure control knob to the "Min PSI" setting
in the yellow zone.
9. Unlock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
Ground the gun by holding it
against the edge of the metal
container while flushing. Failure
to do so may lead to a static
electric discharge, which may
cause a fire.
10. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until the old
solvent is gone and fresh solvent is coming out of the gun.
11. Lock the gun by turning the gun
trigger lock to the locked position.
12. Set down the gun and increase the
pressure by turning the pressure
control knob slowly clockwise into the
green zone.
13. Check the entire system for leaks. If
leaks occur, follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" in this
manual before tightening any fittings or hoses.
14. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" in this manual
before changing from solvent to paint.
Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure
when shutting down the sprayer for any purpose,
including servicing or adjusting any part of the
spray system, changing or cleaning spray tips, or
preparing for cleanup.
