REMOTE PICK UP SYSTEM - (ASG120 only)

For larger painting tasks, use the Remote Pick Up System. This
enables you to draw paint directly out of a large can instead of using
the paint container supplied with the spray gun, thereby saving
considerable time and making painting an even easier job. When using
the remote pick up system secure the Remote Pick Up Tube to the can
using the Remote Pick Up Clip provided. If working from a ladder, the
can may be carefully hung from a rung on the ladder using a wire hook.
We recommend a maximum continuous spray time of 30 mins, with a
minimum break of 20 mins before spraying again to avoid fatigue.

Assembling the Remote Pick Up System 

(see fig.7)

l

Unscrew and remove the paint container and remove the Suction 
Tube and Filter from the inlet spout. If the spray gun is being used 
for the first time, lubricate the piston and cylinder before continuing.
See ‘Preparing and Using your Spray Gun’

l

Push the remote Pick Up Tube (2) firmly over the two spouts of the 
cylinder moulding.

l

Fit the Suction Tube and Filter (3) securely to the same side of the Pick Up Tube that is connected
to the inlet spout of the cylinder moulding.

l

Immerse the Suction Tube and Filter into the can of paint and secure the Pick Up Tube to the can 
using the Remote Pick Up Tube Clip (1). 

l

When using the spray gun with the remote pick up system, only use the gun in the normal upright 
position, to allow the residue paint to drain away down the Pick Up Tube.

Priming the Spray Gun

When using the remote pick up system you must remove all the
air by priming the system as follows:-

1. Turn the output control knob fully anticlockwise to the 

maximum position.

2. Make certain the spray gun is plugged in.

3. Hold the spray gun below the level of paint to speed the 

priming. 

4. Aim the spray gun at a piece of cardboard or old newspaper,

squeeze the trigger and hold until all air is out of the system
and material is flowing freely from the nozzle. This should 
take about two minutes.

WARNING- When using the Remote Pick Up system the
filter, of the Suction Tube and Filter, must be completely
submerged in the paint at all times. If not completely
submerged, air will be sucked into the system and the
piston may seize. If this happens, the sound of the gun will
change to a low hum and it will quickly become hot. Stop
using immediately. Allow the gun to cool, then clean and
lubricate the gun throughly before re-using.
