Operation
This equipment produces a fluid stream at extremely
high pressure. Read and understand the warnings in
the Safety Precautions section at the front of this
manual before operating this equipment.
Setup
Perform the following procedure before plugging in the
power cord of an electric unit.
1.Ensure that the suction set and the return hose are
attached and secure.
2.Using a wrench, attach a minimum of 50’ of 1/4”
nylon airless spray hose to the unit. Tighten securely.
3.Attach an airless spray gun to the spray hose.
Using two wrenches (one on the gun and one on the
hose), tighten securely.
NOTE:Do not attach the tip to the spray gun yet. Remove the
tip if it is already attached.
Make sure all airless hoses and spray guns are
electrically grounded and rated for at least 3200 psi
(220 bar) fluid pressure.
4.Make sure the pressure control knob is in its OFF
position in the black zone.
5.Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in its OFF position.
6.Fill the oil cup with one tablespoon of piston seal
lubricant (Piston Lube).
Never operate unit for more than ten seconds without fluid.
Operating this unit without fluid will cause unnecessary wear
to the packings.
7.Make sure the electrical service is 220V/50HZ
8.Plug the power cord into a properly grounded outlet
at least 25’ from the spray area.
Always use a minimum 12 gauge, three-wire extension cord
with a grounded plug. Never remove the third prong or use an
adapter.
Preparing a New Sprayer
If this unit is new, it is shipped with test fluid in the fluid
section to prevent corrosion during shipment and
storage. This fluid must be thoroughly cleaned out of
the system with mineral spirits before you begin
spraying.
Always keep the trigger lock on the spray gun in
the locked position while preparing the system.
1.Place the suction tube into a container of mineral
spirits.
2.Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
3.Set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure
control knob to the”Min” setting
(clockwise -- increased working pressure)
4.Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME
Position.
5.Turn the unit on by moving the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position.
6.Allow the sprayer to run for 15-30 seconds to flush
the test fluid out through the return hose and into the
waste container.
7.Turn the unit off by moving the ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position.
