WARNING Injection Hazard <<General Safety Precautions>> ● This is a high-pressure painting equipment and an extreme care should be exercised to prevent serious personal injury. This pump generates very high pressure to feed paint fluid to the airless spray gun. High-pressure spray or ruptured component pieces from point-blank range can inject fluid or fragments into your body, causing skin injury from which no small amount of toxic substances might enter into the body.

WARNING <<Nozzle Safety Precautions>> ● Don’t put your hand or fingers or anything over the spray nozzle. ● Be extra careful when cleaning or replacing the nozzle. If the nozzle gets clogged while spraying, immediately lock the trigger safety lock and relieve the fluid pressure in accordance with the “Pressure Relief Procedure,”...

WARNING <<Paint / Solvent Compatibility>> Check the compatibility of the paint and solvent with the “material of the pump parts they come into contact with” against the parts material specifications provided by the pump manufacturer -- before you introduce the fluid (paint/solvent) into the pump. <<Hose Safety Precautions>>...
Page 7
WARNING Fire and Explosion Hazard <<Source of Fire>> As liquid flows through the pump and hose, static electricity is generated. If each component of the painting equipment is not properly grounded, sparks may occur due to static electricity. When there are vaporized solvent, sprayed paint particles, floating dust and other flammables in the atmosphere near the painting equipment, these sparks can cause fire or explosion, possibly causing serious injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.

Operation ① Operation ▲ Flushing the equipment before first use Flush the equipment before first use. Check the fluid passage for leak at the same time. If there is any leak, retighten using two (2) special spanner, putting one on the joint, the other on the base. Remove foreign materials, as well.
(8) Put the nozzle on the spray gun. WARNING Ensure that spray gun’s trigger is locked. If you fail to do so, trigger could be pulled accidentally, resulting in personal injury. (9) Check to see that there is no leak from the painting equipment or the joint between the painting equipment and hose.
Follow the procedure described below to relief pressure. <<Pressure Relief Procedure>> ① Lock the trigger. ② Shut off air supply by turning the pressure control dial counter-clockwise, bringing down the pressure all the way. ③ Relive the ball cock, bring down the system pressure to zero. Unlock the trigger and pull it for double-checking.
Maintenance Equipment Maintenance Guidelines (1) When the pump V-packing is worn, replace. (Rule of thumb: Replace every six months under normal operation condition.) (2) When paint is solidified and accumulated in the pump, take it apart and clean. WARNING Before you take parts apart, always drain all paint fluid in the system and completely relieve the pump operating pressure and wrap air pressure down to zero.
Tear Down Inspection and Parts Replacement Procedure WARNING Before you take parts apart, always drain all paint fluid in the system and completely relieve the pump operating pressure and wrap air pressure down to zero. ① Air Motor ※ For the index number in parentheses ( ), see page 22.
