WHAT TO DO
When check is not OK refer to this column
Motor is hot and runs intermit-
tently.
1. Determine if sprayer was operated at high
pressure with small tips, which causes low
motor RPM and excessive heat build up.
1. Decrease pressure setting or increase tip
size.
2. Be sure ambient temperature where sprayer
is located is no more than 90
F and sprayer
is not located in direct sun.
2. Move sprayer to shaded, cooler area if pos-
sible.

WHAT TO DO
When check is not OK refer to this column
Building circuit breaker opens
as soon as sprayer switch is
turned on.
1. All electrical wiring for damaged insulation, and
all terminals for loose fit or damage. Also wires
between pressure control and motor. See page
21.
1. Repair or replace any damaged wiring or
terminals. Securely reconnect all wires.
2. For missing inspection plate gasket (see page
21), bent terminal forks or other metal to metal
contact points which could cause a short.
2. Correct faulty conditions.
3. Motor armature for shorts. Use an armature
tester (growler) or perform spin test, page 15. In-
spect windings for burns.
3. Replace motor, page 21.
4. Motor control board (35) by performing motor
control board diagnostics, page 18. If diagnos-
tics indicate, substitute with a good board.
CAUTION:
Do not perform this check until mo-
tor armature is determined to be good. A bad
motor armature can burn out a good board.
4. Replace with a new pressure control board
(35), page 18.
1. Basic Electrical Problems, page 10.
1. Perform necessary procedures.
2. ON/OFF switch (23), page 17.
Be sure sprayer
is unplugged!
Disconnect wires from switch.
Check switch with ohmmeter. Reading must be
infinity with ON/OFF switch OFF, and zero with
switch ON.
2. Replace ON/OFF switch, page 17
3. For damaged or pinched wires in pressure con-
trol, page 18.
3. Replace damaged parts, page 18.
Sprayer quits after sprayer op-
erates for 5 to 10 minutes.
1. Basic Electrical Problems, page 10.
1. Perform necessary procedures.
2. Electrical supply with volt meter.
Meter must read 180–260 Vac for 220–240 Vac
models. Meter must read 85–130 Vac for
100–120V Vac models.
2. If voltage is too high, do not operate
sprayer until corrected.
3. Tightness of pump packing nut. Over tightening
tightens packings on rod, restricts pump action,
and damages packings.
3. Loosen packing nut. Check for leaking
around throat. Replace pump packings, if
necessary, page 22.
.
CAUTION
Any short in any part of the
motor power circuit will cause
the control circuit to inhibit
sprayer operation. Correctly
diagnose and repair all shorts
before checking and replac-
ing control board.
Building circuit breaker opens
as soon as sprayer is plugged
into outlet and sprayer is NOT
turned on.
