Warnings TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or swallowed. • Read MSDS’s to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using. •...
Installation Grounding The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces the risk of static and electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current due to static build up or in the event of a short circuit. Pump: use the ground wire and clamp (supplied). See .
Controls and Components Controls and Components Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury from splashing or moving parts. Sprayer Controls • Pump air pressure regulator (C): a locking regula- tor to adjust air pressure to the motor and fluid outlet pressure of pump.

Pressure Relief Pressure Relief Follow pressure relief procedure when you stop spray- ing and before cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment. 1. Shut off the bleed-type air valve. TI10826A 2. Hold the gun firmly against a grounded metal pail and trigger the gun. Setup/Installation Before using the equipment for the first time, follow this procedure.
Grounding Read Fire and Explosion Hazard. See page 3. 1. Connect the ground wire clamp to a true earth ground. 2. Ground the object being sprayed, fluid supply con- tainer, and all other equipment in the spray area. TI10832A 3. Ground all solvent pails. Use only metal pails. Do not place on a non-conductive surface such as paper or cardboard.
Prime Prime 1. Shut off both air regulators and the bleed-type air valve. TI10836A 2. Shut off the fluid regulator. 3. Install the air cap. TI10834A 4. Place the suction tube in the fluid. 5. Open the bleed-type air valve. TI10827A 6.
Spraying 1. Adjust fluid flow using the pump air regulator or the fluid pressure regulator. TI10836A 2. Adjust fluid pressure so stream from gun travels 6–8 in. straight before falling off. 6 in. to 8 in. (152 mm to 203 mm) 3.
Maintenance Maintenance Relieve pressure before servicing. See Typical Installation, page 7. 1. Flush. See Flush, page 9. 2. Clean the air cap and fluid nozzle. TI10840A TI10834A 3. Clean the suction tube and inlet strainer, using a compatible solvent. TI10841A 4.
Troubleshooting Relieve pressure before servicing. See Typical Installation, page 8. Problem Pump will not run, or stops. Pump runs erratically. Pump runs too fast. Pump cycles at stall or fails to hold pressure at stall. Audible air leak. Air bubbles in fluid. Poor finish or irregular pattern.
