4) Screw the spray nozzle onto the end
of the flexible extension.
5) Bend the flexible extension to the
required shape. Once bent do not
straighten.
6) When finished using, clean all parts
and then re-assemble in the original
configuration.

HOW TO USE THE 1.5m (5’)
SUCTION TUBE
For larger painting applications, using the
1.5m (5’) suction tube enables you to
draw paint directly out of a large can
instead of using the paint container, thus
saving considerable time and making
painting an even easier job, since you
are operating the sprayer without a
loaded paint container.
Assembling the 1.5m (5’) Suction
Tube:
1. Remove the paint container and the
intake tube from the paint sprayer.
2. Insert the adapter fitting through the
hole in the return cup into the paint
intake port on the sprayer-ensure this is
firmly pushed in. (Same position as
where the section tube was removed
from).
3. Locate the return cup within the
recess where the paint container was
located. Slip the retainer nut over cup
and screw into place firmly. (The return
cup is necessary to catch any paint that
is returned through the overflow bypass
opening below the paint pump).
4. Insert 1.5m (5’) intake suction
tube into adapter fitting up to the
stop. Insert other end of flexible tube
over suction tube filter moulding, ensure
this fits tightly to prevent air leaks,
immerse filter end of suction tube into
paint can and secure tube to can using
the retainer clamp.
5. To reduce the time the sprayer runs
without paint, hold the sprayer below the
paint level when priming the sprayer, this
speeds up the time the paint takes to
draw through the tube. The paint may
need additional thinning if you still
experience difficulty priming the sprayer.
The paint must be stirred fully before
use.
6. When using the spray gun with the
1.5 suction tube only use the gun in
normal upright position, support or hang
the gun in an upright position during
breaks of use.
If the gun is not kept in the normal
upright position after use, remove the
cup and drain the fluids before placing
down on it’s side.
Observe the fluid level in the return cup,
empty before it is completely full.
