STEP ONE: CLEAN UP INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
Proper clean up is essential to keep your sprayer in optimum working condition.
Dried by-products act like glue and will cause moving parts to stick. Failure to properly
clean your sprayer will damage the unit. Taking the time to clean your sprayer
immediately after use will help your sprayer last longer and work correctly. If you are
finished with the project or are not going to use the sprayer within the day, you must
follow these instructions for proper clean up. Never store the sprayer longer than 30
minutes without cleaning.
1. Unplug your sprayer from the electrical outlet.
2. Empty any remaining (stain or paint) material from the container.
3. Fill container approximately 1/2 full with appropriate cleaning solution. For latex, use
warm soapy water; for oil-based, use a cleaning solution recommended by the material
manufacturer. See Figure L.
4. Plug sprayer into an electrical outlet.
5. Press the switch of the sprayer until the cleaning solution passes through the spray
nozzle for several seconds.
6. Remove container and properly discard the cleaning solution.
7. Unplug the sprayer from the electrical outlet.
STEP TWO: CLEAN UP INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CYLINDER HOUSING
1. Unplug your sprayer from the electrical outlet.
2. Press the QUICK RELEASE buttons on both sides of the sprayer. Grasp the container
with one hand and, with the other hand, slide out the QUICK RELEASE cartridge. See
Figure M.
3. Pull out pick-up tube.
4. Remove all the parts from the QUICK RELEASE pump housing cartridge. See Figure N.
5. Depending on the material used, some residue may remain on the sprayer parts.
Remove any remaining residue with the cleaning brush. See Figure O.
6. Lubricate all moving parts with lightweight oil. (Included, or use WD40
®
, 3-in-One
®
oil,
or similar product.)
7. Reassemble the QUICK RELEASE pump housing cartridge parts.
8. Reinsert the cylinder housing into the housing. You will hear a click when the cylinder
housing is engaged into the housing. See Figure P.
9. Reassemble the pick-up tube and the container.
LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Lubricating the sprayer prior to storage is extremely important to maximize the life of the
cylinder housing and its components.
1. Unplug your sprayer from the electrical outlet.
2. Empty any remaining (stain or paint) material from the container, remove the pick-up
tube and clean.
3. Plug the sprayer into the electrical outlet.
4. Turn the sprayer upside down.
5. Squeeze a small amount of petroleum oil into the pick-up tube port and on the cylinder
pump housing, See Figure Q.
6. Press the switch of the sprayer for three to five seconds while the sprayer is still turned
upside down. This will force the petroleum oil onto the piston and will protect the
sprayer from drying and the piston from seizing.
7. Turn the sprayer right side up and reinstall the pick-up tube and container.
8. Unplug your sprayer from the electrical outlet. Store the unit.
