Refi ll the supply container.
Check for loose connections on the
siphon assembly, tighten, then reprime pump.
Tighten just enough to stop leakage.
Replace the packings. See page 17.
Replace Piston Rod

Packing Tightening Procedure:
Inspect the packing nut daily!
If seepage of paint into the packing nut and/
or move ment of the piston upward is found
(while not spraying), the packing nut should be
tightened enough to stop leakage only, but not
any tighter.
Overtightening Will Damage the Packings
and reduce the packing life to the life of other
piston pumps.
1. Always stop the pump at the bottom of its stroke when you take
a break or at the end of the day. This helps keep material from
drying on the rod, dam ag ing the packings.
2. Keep the displacement pump packing nut/wet cup 1/3 full of
Airlessco Throat Seal Oil at all times. The TSO helps protect the
packings and rod.
3. Lubricate Connecting Rod Pin every 3 months.
4.
Inspect the packing nut daily.
Your paint pump has
Airlessco's patented "Triple Life Packing System".
Packing life will be extended a minimum of
3 times if the proper packing tightening
pro ce dure is followed!
